A bloke I know from my local pub contacted me last night on Facebook messenger, asking how I was. Nothing wrong with that, but I wouldn't say we are that friendly, he's just someone I know from the pub. Anyway, after a few "Not bad, how are you" kind of comments he then said "Good to hear from you, Anyway I'm doing pretty good and so happy now because my life has really changed for better and im not sure if you've heard about the recent good news yet??. When I asked what the news was he said Could you believe I won a lottery of £150,000 from the Bill and Melinda Gates Grant lottery foundations(BMG). I wished him well, then he replied Thanks......Bill Foundation is the largest private foundation in the world,founded by Bill and Melinda Gates.They give out money to help retired, deafs,students,and all citizens.Did you get yours. This was followed by Oh many people have heard about this, some got £500,000 delivered to their doorstep. I think you should apply for the benefit like I did, do you know how to do that"?
After telling him I don't gamble he replied......
Facebook link deleted.
"Just click on the link and message the claiming agent in charge tell her a beneficiary told you about the program and you want to apply for the Benefit"
Then after an hour or so he posted......
"You are to click on the space (SEND MESSAGE) and message them straight away, followed an hour or so later by "Any good news from the agent?"
Why would someone who says they've won £150,000 contact someone they haven't messaged before and tell them how to 'win money'?! I haven't replied to his last post. He's a heavy drinker, if that shines any light on this. Why would Bill Gates of all people give money away??! What am I missing here?🤔
