Anyone still here who

#1 Post by tlynn78 » Wed May 16, 2018 11:35 am

has a point of contact for Kusch? (Dave Kuschel) I received a series of rather odd FB messages from him that lead me to suspect he's been hacked.

I don't know about kusch, but many people have configured their profiles here to alert them via e-mail when they get a PM. Have you tried that? --Bob

We'll see if that works. Weird exchange, including typos, below:

(D)Hello
How are you doing
(me) Hey, how's it going, (etc - thinking it's really Dave)
(D) I'm doing great and good to hear from you too hope you have heard from them yet CDR
(me-catching on) CDR?
(D) Community Development resources
They are a new organization helping individual and company with grant money
New initiative by the government to improve standard of living
Have you heard from them yet
(me) no
(D) Oh I thought you have been contacted already because I saw your name among the grant winners list
When the delivery officer brought my grant money to me
Did you received a call or text message from them of late ?
(me) No, and I haven't applied for any grants.
(D) Is a grant money every tax payers entitled to claim and make use of and it is not a loan and you are not paying the grant money
Have they got in touch with you yet?
(me) Nope
(D) Ok let me check if I still have the claim officer contact with me for you
(347)560-8641 this is the claim officer contact just send them a text message saying you want to claim your financial assistance
Do that right away and let me know how it goes Okay

I did not "do that right away."
Dave and the missus look good in the accompanying photo, though.

I saw that someone on fb alerted Kuschel, so hoping he got it fixed.

That's an old hacky thing. I had gotten those pre-deletion.
Well, then

So you're saying I shouldn't be expecting a delivery/claim officer to show up with my money from a new organization/new government initiative for the grant for which I did not apply? Damn.

I just got another message checking to see if I reached them yet. Sorely tempted to screw with him.
