Scam Description
They came through my friend’s messenger page asking how I’ve been going then they wanted to know if I heard about the Ida program they announced on TV a few weeks ago. They said it was bonus money to help people maintain their standard of living over the nation .As it was supposed to be her she gave me the phone number ###-###-#### saying it was the agent’s private text number and to let him know that she referred me to him and to let her know when I texted him. When he got back to me in a text he asked for my name, address, phone number, and social security number. Not thinking it was a scam I sent him all my information . He had someone else text me that if I wanted the money that I would have to send them money first that’s when I figured it was a scam . Their number is ###-###-#### .Now I’m going out of my mind because I gave them my social security number. Please get in contact with me so I can know what to do. My phone number is ###-###-#### They wanted $1500.00 for me to get $50000.00 up to $12000.00 for $1,000,000. Thank You Kindly ******** ******
