This woman or whoever used a close family friend that lives out of town to contact me on facebook, and told me they saw my name listed as a winner. He wanted to know if I had clamed my prize. I asked, "What are you referring to?" He/she or whoever stated, "contact this nice lady Shirley Brandser, and she will help you connect with claiming the prize, you deserve and will be very happy with." I contacted this lady by facebook, and checked her out on facebook. It stated she was a federal agent set up to contact these winners to assist with claiming prizes. She stated it was designd to help boost economy and people were chosen randomly by the government. I continued conversation with this close family friend, and he answered all questions logically. But, later found out, it was not this family friend at all. It was this scammer impersonating my friend. In the mean time, I lost $1540.00, supposedly for pretax payment. It was the last dime I had to my name.

Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell. And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can. So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
