I don't know what the scam is on this, but those of you who Facebook have seen this, I'm sure. Somebody who is not a "friend" of the original poster makes a post saying they share a lot of common interests, or what the person writes is very intelligent and they'd like to be Facebook friends. They usually use a fake pic and profile, I guess.
Anyway, a friend of mine posted a notice that his father passed away. There are like 80 posts on there sending prayers, saying his father was a good man, life well lived, was loved, etc. He died 3 weeks ago when the post was made.
Yesterday a new post appeared. Now, realize, there have been no posts made on that thread or post for two weeks. All my friend's friends posted within a few days, most within a day or two.
And then this one appeared. There's a similar one a week ago you'll see, too.
It's obvious they don't even read the posts.
By the way, anybody know what the scam is? My friend was with the DA's office for many years and obviously won't be scammed, but I am curious what the end game is for these fake people.
