I received several missed phone call from this number in the past few months. Today I happened to answer this call at 12:41pm. The person who called had a accent. He said he was with an United States program.

He said that since I paid my bills, taxes and had no criminal record I was in titled to a one time grant of $9,000 dollars. I told him that this sounded like a scam. and the call ended.

I  too have been receiving calls from this number with them saying the exact same thing. They said in order for me to receive this money they need my bank acct # or a debit/credit info. hmmm... lol. and they keep saying it isn't a scam.

the guy said he was with the IRS and I had not paid my taxes for the last couple years and if I send the money no felony charges would be brought against me.dont give out any info to these people call the Trade commisn and report them

They call at least daily for weeks. Driving me nuts.

they called me with the grant scam so i told them i was a felon and had multiple bankruptcy. they immediately hung up. maybe now they will leave me alone. lol I guess one lie deserve another. lol

Same here. I asked for their website -- he gave me one that could not be possible -- www.usagovernementgrants/org/personal_grant.html ... I asked about the forward slash and he insisted that was right, and I kept insisting on vetting him before I gave out any personal information. Of course, he got frustrated and hung up.

The following is an active site:
http://www.usagovernmentgrants.org/Personal_Grants.html

Not sure if it is legit or not.

It would be legit if it were a .gov site - like grants.gov.

I just got the same call and I gave them my bank acct info, and then called the Finance Manager, named Linda. She told me if I pay a security deposit of $280 I would then receive $9,000 and they would reimburse me the $280 as well. I didn't have the $280 today so she told me to call her back when I do and she will release the 9 G's to my bank account. Hopefully I didn't just give my account # to scammers, eeeeek!!

This call has come in several times to both my landline and cell phone numbers.  No message ever left and I don't answer because I don't see a company name or recognize the number.  I am tired of these scam calls.

Was calling 2 or more times daily. One tells me I'm entitled to grant money, then another tells me I have unpaid taxes and if left unpaid will be arrested.
Tried calling the number and get recording saying number not in service.
I got so tired of it that when they called one time I answered with speaker phone. me and a friend talked like we just killed a door to door sales person . I know it's not the most polite way of doing things, but it stopped the calls.

Tired of these calls - how do they get a list of cell phone numbers?!

They called me five times today. I answered once and they said I was going to receive a grant. I asked what purpose the grant was to be spent... You know, on education, a program for the homeless, disadvantaged kids, ect. They said for whatever I wanted to use the money for. So I then explained that they have the definition of a grant wrong as you have to apply for them and use the money for a very specific purpose and surely as an agent of the government, they would know just that. Then I hung up. They still called and called. I ignored them every other time. Total scam!

I have received several calls from this number.  They went unanswered.

They have my address all of this is really frustrating

Received a call from a scammer claiming to be with the Treasury Dept. from this number.  I advised them to come out to my residence in-person so that I could take a baseball bat to their useless, scamming head.  They hung up.

Have received multiple calls from this number--guy posing from federal government of US. Says I am awarded a grant for $9000 if I will give them my bank account number. He needs to be SHUT DOWN!! The number is from DC,USA

They called today at 11:37am saying that they were calling from the US Government and that I was eligible for a free grant of $9000.  I said nothing is free and they said "Ok, thank you," and hung up.  The caller id said District of Columbia.

1-202-666-3221 Indian (or some country close) asked to speak to owner and totally blew the name - no message will call back - also called from 000 000 0000 today and yesterday and the day before and before and before - you get the picture............said District of Columbia

I dont want this number to callme. How did they get my information

Received two calls, a woman saying she is from a federal government agency in Washington D.C. (I could not understand the name of the agency due to strange accent and unclear speech), but she said I was selected to receive a $29,000 grant that I would not have to pay back.  I told her to mail me info - she has my correct address in their system.  She insisted not a scam.
