SCAM SPAM

I have received this text message today and I cannot get over it. Usually scam texts that i get are from banks or ludicrous unknown companies that declare me as a winner or some imaginary prize.

Today however, it says that I have won Php 950,000, oddly enough from the Villar Foundation.

Is the Senator really giving away money???

I doubt ANY senator is.

I was dumb enough to try calling the contact number but was greeted by a person who did NOT sound at all like a lawyer (the text indicates that a certain Atty. Fajardo was to be contacted) and obviously a scam artist.

So again, I am a victim of this useless scam spam and I am embarrassed by this. I do not understand why people create such nonsense, I mean, do they really get to profit from fooling people? Shame on them for even using a respected politician's name for their scam texts.

Then again, it MIGHT just also be a scheme to ruin Villar's name for reasons I cannot think of.
