If you are on Fakebook, be aware
« on: May 26, 2024, 07:56:21 PM »
There are so many scam sites nowadays that it is unreal. I clicked on what I THOUGHT was the official Czeska Zbrojovka FB page, but I was contacted by a guy calling himself Timmothy Smith, head of Media Relations for CZ-USA. However, I know both the current head and the previous one, and he's neither. He wanted my personal info to "send me free stuff", and when I asked him if he had heard of me...he had not. When he realized he was busted, he deleted the page. Double check anywhere you go - they ae out there and they are using OUR photos and videos to suck you in.

Yeah,

It is sad.
I have warned my GF about how bad the scamming is going on with social media and she had one do about the same thing with her.
I personally have become totally disenchanted with social media, which is a shame as it can be entertaining and helpful at times to share life experiences.
Just too many people looking to be celebrities and others looking to cash in.
