CNCS Facebook Scam and Corporation of National Community Service

Cybercriminals are hacking social media accounts and using those accounts to contact the owners' friends or family claiming they got a huge sum of money from the Corporation of National Community Service(CNCS).

But, the so-called claiming agent is a scammer who will attempt to trick potential victims into disclosing their personal and financial information, which will be used fraudulently. Or, the scammers may ask potential victims to send them money, which they will claim is for taxes or fees before they can receive their so-called money. But, if the money is sent, the scammers will disappear and the victims will never receive the money they were promised.

My wife was informed of this program by not one or two—but three—good friends who claim to have thousands of dollars from it. So are we supposed to believe?

I got scanned for 20,500.00 where I will be filing a lawsuit against this corporation. I have already filed the scan to the FTC FBI and local law enforcement.

I received a message from a classmate sending me a link to apply. Something didn’t sound right so I went to my Credit Union. They informed me it was a scam and deleted the information for me.
