IN THE AGE OF SCAMS, NEW MEXICO IS HIT WITH YET ANOTHER ONE. THE STATE ATTORNEY GENERAL’S OFFICE TELLS US THEY’RE NOW GOING AFTER YOUR PERSONAL AND FINANCIAL INFORMATION ON FACEBOOK. SPOKESMAN JAMES HALLINAN SAYS THEY ACTUALLY CONTACT YOU AND REQUEST THE MONEY FOR ONE REASON OR ANOTHER.
HE SAYS THE SCAMS ARE ALL DIFFERENT. HALLINAN TELLS US THAT ONE WOMAN LOST 400-THOUSAND DOLLARS AFTER TRUSTING SOMEONE CARRYING OUT A DATING SCAM ON FACEBOOK.
HALLINAN SAYS THE SCAM IS SURFACING ALL ACROSS NEW MEXICO, BUT SO FAR HAS HIT ALBUQUERQUE THE HARDEST BECAUSE IT’S THE STATE’S BIGGEST CITY.
