Facebook lottery scams have become increasingly common in India, targeting unsuspecting users with promises of huge cash prizes and luxury items.
These scams typically involve messages claiming that the user has won a lottery through Facebook and needs to pay processing fees or provide personal information to claim their prize.
Many Indian users have reported receiving such messages, often appearing to come from official Facebook pages or verified accounts.
Local authorities in India have issued warnings about these scams, advising people to never share personal details or send money to unknown entities claiming to be from Facebook.
Genuine lotteries and contests on Facebook always follow official procedures and never ask for upfront payments or sensitive personal information. |
