CAUGHT: Facebook Scammer IM’s Me through Friend’s Account
Just got finished with a chat. Pretty scary stuff having a dialog with somebody you know is a thief. Check out the chat log below. I called my Friend’s place of work immediately when I finished the chat. Maybe somebody will be able to catch him at Western Union.
PS: He’s trying to chat with me now to see if I’ve gone to Western Union
