This is a warning for every OFW to be more careful in transacting in facebook or on any social media mostly if it is about money. You are not hundred percent sure if the person you talk to are the real person that you expected. Lots of pretentious people are strolling by in any websites waiting to catch a victim that they can plunder. You need to be more conscious and witty every time you are dealing with person you really don't know, even for those people you thought that you already know them well. People are evil and greedy for money and they can do anything to victimized someone who is lack in knowledge for that piece of paper you have.
