Once I received a call. The person on the other end claimed I won a huge lottery. They asked for my bank details to transfer the money. It was so scary because it seemed so real at first. But then I remembered that I never entered any lottery. It was clearly a scam.
Here's my story. I saw an ad on social media that promised a high - paying part - time job. They asked for an upfront fee to start. It seemed like a great opportunity at first. But then I thought it was too good to be true. After some research, I found out it was a common scam. They use the allure of easy money to deceive people. It was a scary experience as I could have lost my money.
I got a text message saying I was selected for a free luxury vacation. All I had to do was click on a link and provide some basic information. I knew it was a scam because it was too good to be true. Scammers often use the allure of free things to trick people into clicking malicious links.
A friend of mine had a scary scam incident. He got an email that looked like it was from a well - known shopping site. It said he had won a huge prize and just needed to enter his credit card details to claim it. The email was very convincing, with the site's logo and everything. Fortunately, he was a bit suspicious and called the real customer service of the shopping site. They told him it was a scam. Scammers often use such tactics to trick people into giving away their financial information.
Once I got a text that said 'I'm watching you from the attic.' I live alone. I nervously looked up at the attic hatch. Heart pounding, I grabbed a flashlight and slowly climbed the stairs. But when I opened the hatch, there was nothing there. Then my phone buzzed again, 'You can't escape me.' It was so creepy.
Once, Pier Graham received a text message that simply said 'I'm watching you'. He looked around but saw no one. Every time he checked his phone, there was another message like 'I know where you are'. It sent shivers down his spine.
Once, I was camping alone in the woods. At night, I heard strange rustling sounds outside my tent. I peeked out and saw a pair of glowing eyes in the darkness. My heart raced as I quickly zipped up the tent. I stayed awake all night, clutching my flashlight, not knowing what was out there. It was one of the scariest moments of my life.
Once I received a text message that told a really strange zombie story. It was about a town where people started getting text messages from an unknown number. The messages described a zombie outbreak that was slowly approaching the town. People initially thought it was a joke but then strange things started to happen. They saw figures in the distance that looked like zombies. It was really scary as the texts seemed to be predicting the events accurately.
A friend of mine had a scary text message story. He got a text with a picture of his front door and the words 'I'm near'. He didn't know who it could be. He called the police right away. They checked the area but didn't find anyone suspicious. But it still took him a long time to feel safe again, and he installed extra security cameras at his place.
