202-301-0508

Just got a call from 202-301-0508 the caller said that they were from the US Government and that I had been selected to receive $9,000 which never had to be paid back and could use it for whatever purpose I needed it for, sounded to good to be true, so I questioned the caller who got all bent out of shape when I refused to give any of my details, so I asked why he was trying to scam me, guess what, he got really mad and hung up...

Just got a call, same as Teri.  I told him to come up with a better story, and he hung up.  What a dope.

This number called me, but left no messaged. Looked it up with tel-lingua which showed this:

Got a call saying he was from the US Government (202) 301-2824.  He had such a thick Indian accent, I could not understand what he was saying and I heard all kinds of noise and chatter in the background.  I asked him 3 times "what? I can't understand a word you are saying" and then, being the nice Brooklyn girl that I am, I told him he was full of sh-t and to go f--k himself and hung up.  Another [***] scammer.

Scam report this number these scammers will try to do scared u into paying money and they even spoof the caller id they are scammers. Report this to your local police or FBI
