    How do these scamers know who our friends are? Also how are they able to get pictures or video from said friend to create the fake?

        What about the voice? How it sounds like etc? Maybe from videos people post. Shits getting weird. Glad I deleted everything from FB long time ago. Actually looking back its crazy thay had all that info on my profile, pics and videos. Makes no sense now. Lots of people still dont care and have a lot of infro freely available online.

      In my case, the friend’s facebook account was compromised. So they were able to get his pictures and call me from his account.
