Well, here's Dale8998, posting his most recent screw-up: I almost got scammed. Here's le story now: I was checking out FB, when I noticed I had 2 friend requests. I foolishly added them and proceeded to notice 2 messages. I talked it up with the girl. She said that I had a prize worth 500 grand and that it had been delayed. I then proceeded to talk it up with my mom RL about the possibility of it being a scam. She said it was. Well, wham, I proceeded to make up an excuse I could proove: I wasn't rich. She messaged me again, I gullibly replied, when I suddenly realized it was a scam. Unfriended her, searched up the chick, the top row was an old-looking FB worker. I asked her for help, proceeded to block the scammer's girl account. Went to the guy, blocked and reported him. I think FB has the IP address in mind, so the scammer will probably be banned on all accounts. TL;DR: If it looks like a Facebook representative but she says something about a $500,000 prize getting delayed due to you not paying, block and report.
