Susan Cornett Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 I received a private message from a user claiming to be a dying widow who wants to donate her money to a good cause. As luck would have it, she's in Liberia but I can reach out to her lawyer who has some gmail address (as all lawyers do). The user name is Mrs Sue Saunders. This user was blocked but please be wary of this scam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LexieCat Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 I got the same message, and assume there may have been others here. This is unequivocally a scam--the only person "donating" any money will be you, and I can guarantee it would not be going to a good cause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BridgetO Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Darn, I didn't get the message from Mrs Sue Sanders. I guess I'm not a good cause! Just kidding of course. Thank you Susan C for the heads up. Bridget Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steff Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 I did not receive a message. Perhaps they found that I work in social work, so obviously I have no money to be scammed out of! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BridgetO Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Well, Steff, I'm retired from cocial services, so obviously I have less money than you, even. It proves it's a scam.If it were legit, we'd probably be considered really deseerving. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
