Additionally, he noted that Donald Trump will die, just to add a little bit of excitement to the prank and get the attention of the Secret Service. The post has been shared more than 188,000 times at the time of writing.

Of course this freaked out a whole bunch of Facebook users. You know, the platform where people thought Mark Zuckerberg was going to give away millions of dollars to random users.

So how did he do it?

Elena Cresci from The Guardian noticed that Reyes edits old posts in order to make him look like some time-predicting genius.
