PHILIPSBURG:--- The Detective Department of Police Force of Sint Maarten recently received information that an organization called “National Endowment for the Humanities” has been busy contacting regular citizens and businesses in the community via Messenger and other Social Media Platforms, to take part in a cash grant program for those who need assistance in paying bills, buying homes, starting their own business, going to school, helping raise their children etcetera. This program requires you to send or deposit a cash amount U.S. $ 3000, - to a “Grant program” to obtain an official slot. This money will “so to say” be used for the rebuilding of the country. After have deposited your money you will in turn receive a cash amount of U.S. $ 150.000, - for taking part in the program.
