Laurens Police were dispatched to an east-side residence yesterday afternoon to meet with a woman who said she believes she has been scammed, again. She said someone contacted her on Facebook a couple of weeks ago in reference to giving $50,000 as thanks for advertising on Facebook. She said she sent the $500 they advised she needed to send in order to receive the much larger amount, and now believes she has been scammed. She also advised she has already been scammed a couple of times in the past few weeks. Sgt. Bolding spoke with her, advising perhaps she should consult with someone she trusts before sending money to anyone.
