Updated | By East Coast Breakfast
If you're invited to join 'Secret Sister Gift Exchange' on Facebook DON'T accept!
This viral trend on Facebook could land you in jail!
This pyramid scheme is slowly working its way in other countries, it has not been confirmed where it originated but it has trapped thousands of people in U.S.
"You're asked to join by a friend on Facebook, either through a status, a message, or an invite. They claim all you have to do is buy one gift that costs 10 dollars. You send that gift to a secret sister, and you will get one back, or maybe 2, 3, or 26", according to Valley News Live.
Authorities say you're setting yourself up to get your identity stolen. The exchange 'Gift" chain letter is a form of gambling.
Take a look...
Rather be safe than sorry.
