I was contacted a couple of days ago by someone using the profile Williams Riggs on Instagram. He kept insisting he is a Captain, then he was promising me the world. I suspected it was a fake account because of the "broken English". There were too many grammar and spelling mistakes. I hope the scammer can be traced and given a befitting punishment
