SCAM: Federal Government Survival Fund

SCAM: Federal Government Survival Fund



If you are sent this link as above to claim N50,000 from the Federal Government, beware it's a SCAM!!!  They are after people's details.   It is called a Phishing link.  If you have clicked on the link, try and disconnect from the internet as a first step immediately after clicking it, you may also need to scan your phone for potential scamware on your phone. 


First of, the link isn't redirecting you to an accredited government link.  


Secondly, the statistics of people leaving reviews is static, meaning if you click it, it doesn't open. 


Thirdly, I discover that the reviews displayed were all ending with 'thank you federal govt', unless they have a template, everyone shouldn't write the same ending the same and writing govt the same.



Fourthly, the time elapsed of each review is set on a timer, so it could change from 8 mins 28 mins within 2 to 3 mins, to make it look real time.  There is also a review that is typing.... If you close the link and re open again, you will see the timers all start to count up again.


Lastly, if you have given any information out, please call your bank to help you out, apart from doing the things mentioned in the introduction. 


Please let's share to keep people informed!
