Wondering if this number is connected with a scam

We know it was a scam dealing with gov. grants.

have been getting numerous calls from this number....I will not answer it.

you said i won 7.000 and was putting in my bank

No, none of us told you that.
If you sent any money before you supposedly qualified for the deposit, you lost that money!

Things to believe:

* There ain't no such thing as a free lunch (TANSTAFL)
* If it looks too good to be true, it probably is.
* You have not won big bucks from an unknown government benefactor
* The tooth fairy really does not exist
* Everything you read on the internet is not necessarily true.
* It is illegal to pay money for a loan, BEFORE getting the loan!

What the asked u do to get 7thou.

Is this real

Male caller, spanish accent. Asked for Indiana Jones and then hung up after I repeated what he said.

Said they were calling from the Federal Government and I'm being awarded $7,000 grant. Also offered me Western Union OR direct deposit. When I asked for their credentials and contact info, CLICK! It was super sketchy, did not want to answer my questions, and there was a lot of background noise. I applied for some scholarships/grants and used a fake alias and noticed that's what they addressed me as. Be warned

I had a missed call from this number.  When I called it back it went to a message that said this person's voicemail had not yet been set up......Ahhhhh darn, did I miss my ship coming?????? JK

Said his name was Henry calling from the United States department of defense - I just hung up

I get calls from this number at least 4 times a day and about 3 or 4 times a week and I do not answer im tired of it what can we do????

Some guy with an accent said he was calling on behalf of the US  government and that I was awarded $1,000  grant ( one of 15, 000 people).  I hung up, he called back & asked why I hung up on him..hahaha. I gave him an education and hung up again.

I got a call from this number and no one said anything but I could hear a lot of back ground noise like if the person was in a bar or something. I hung up and tried to call them back and it said that the voicemail box of the user wasn't set up yet.

Said they were calling from the Federal Government and I'm being awarded $7,000 grant. Also offered me Western Union OR direct deposit. It was super sketchy, did not want to answer my questions, and there was a lot of background noise. Checked number out on line..........Scam!

202-738-3333...I know its a foreign person saying they are from DC and with the IRS saying the government wants to give me money. Yeah, [***]! The government only contacts you when you owe them money! LOL, get a life and please go back to YOUR country and stop trying to rip off hard working Americans!

This number called my cell a few times a day.  Looks as if they might be related to the following numbers who also bombard US residents/citizens with repeated unwanted nuisance telemarketing and/or fraud calls:   202 738 3333,  305-587-2555, 760-330-7756, 866-274-1177, 760-763-8439.  Hope the FTC can deal with these fraudsters.

I am getting calls from this number for the past few days. I do not answer and no voicemail left. Wish there is a way we can block these calls.

This caller 202-738-2323 has been calling my cell several times a day, 24/7. Given how others have identified them as fraudulent, I have not answered any of their calls. I have gotten repeated nuisance calls from tens of other numbers that have been associated with subscription frauds, grant frauds and dubious "educational" agencies:  202-738-3333, 862-225-1268, 817-615-0108, 618-221-0181, 801-610-6271, 636-224-3117, 623-223-5561, 222-222-2245, 856-295-6867,  0012-1233 (from India?), 866-274-1177, 202 738-2323, 305-587-2555.
