Leon Rogers told Chatman, “When it gets to the point where people are threatening to do some harm to you and your family for something you didn’t do, that’s kind of scary, you know?”
The hacking took place months ago and both Rogers and Ericka "DJ Sundance" Ingram said they contacted Facebook without a response from the company when it happened. Watch below how hackers came up with the scam. “It is not me, no way, shape or form.”
