They have to think we are totally stupid to fall for such crap, for instance, like I don't even USE facebook so I would never have done anything like that 'contest' or whatever.
I had a training session about such things at work and one thing is to match the answering email address with the incoming and if different, throw it in the trash.

All of the above examples are typical methods, have been going on for many years. In Sweden - I suppose even in other countries - imposters pretending to be working for the bank, the police, insurance companies etc - approach elderly people and convince them to give away jewelry, bank account numbers and codes 'so that their belongings will be in safe hands'. This happens every day despite frequent guarantees from banks and police that they definitely don't work that way - they don't approach people by telephone or personal visits. This is a serious and growing problem.
