I was asked for $260...I confronted the second person i spoke to cuz obviously it was the same person lolol

I gt a call from these folks saying that I have a grant for 7K, and they wanted sensitive information from me. It sounded so good at first, but then I asked myself "Why would the gov't give me 7K just for paying my taxes on time, not having a criminal record, and not filing for Chapter 7" That sounded so bogus to me, so I calmly declined, and kept it moving, but before I even made that decision, I was on the internet while on the phone with them, and googled "Gov't 7K Grants", and this forum came up. so while she was feeding a bunch of bull, I was looking at this blog, and everyone on here said the same thing "This thing is a scam"

Thank you, you guys for being on this blog when I needed you all. God bless, and protect yourselves, and your personal interest. God bless................

i got a call from 1252 210-2543 telling me to call 202 657-4310 sounded indian to me they wanted me to go to a western union since i told them i wanted cash but before i could get the 7000.00 i had to deposit 330.00 that would be rufunded to me it seems to good to be true they have some info but not the bank info so i guess thats good im broke anyway lol

Just got the CALL....I have been chosen out of 17,000 for the US Grant. (Funny I have been applying for grants) So thought nothing of it but the more she spoke, they would have had my info as I had been filling out many apps. Then I told her just send the cash. Never gave them what they did not have. She then told me to call another number, and the new gal stated that I was to go to Western Union and deposit 330 to them to get 7000? WHAT?

The phone number that I received a call from was 202 470-3455. Grace told me that I was going to recieve $7000.00 from the government for having no criminal record all my life.

Thank you guys so much giving me the inside scoop on this scam. They just called me and I just about made the decision to deposit $250.00 into a western union account for them. They claimed after I deposited the money that $7,500.00 would be ready for me at western union. Big time scam. Almost fell for it, until I read this. Thank you so very much. God Bless.

this just happened to me, im a single mom with 2 kids and talked to a nancy brown.... at first i was falling for it and gave them my full name confirmed my adress and phone number and my dob, is that info they can use to screw me over? somebody please help.

I too got the same call from 202-657-5552 guy named Austin they had all my info but ss#  called my bank .  They wanted 210.00  western  union sent to india to a johny ap. They still calling me what morons

I received a call this morning from the US governement blah blah and they said the same like they told you all. A woman with Indian/Nigerian  accent called me saying I paid my taxes. My foot I pay, cus I just started working. My husband does! She said, we have two options,
1. Cash in hand
2. Direct Deposit
I played around and said, 'Cash in hand' - she said, you need to talk to my manager as he will have to release the amount. Well, I said I need to go now and can't talk.

I am an Indian and I hate when people try to fake their accents and cheat others. Well, The bottom line is, 'It's a scam dear people'

They might pull out some info but not all. So, don't worry since u didn't give them ur account numbers :)

I got a call like that from 202-657-4595 and was asked to pay 270 bucks to a western union and to call them before entering store so i could get my deposit of 270 back idk they sound convenienceing but when i offered to change my form of payment they refused to accommodate me by sending it to a bank that was my clue it wasn't real so i let him finish his b..s.. reasons about international stuff and searched for answers whitepages app is great along with satellite maps lol ttyl

I got a call from Ronald brown 202-210-0054 and he gave me another number to call. He didn't ask any personal info but was I single and what I was gonna do with the money. I gave a walmart money card. called 202-697-9846 spoke to will to release the funds but he said the bank was closed and to call back 2 days later.

received a call from Illinois number 779 416-6242 male caller with heavy accent said I had been chosen to receive $7000.00 from the Gov it is a grant I don't have to pay back.  Said I was to call his acct manager at 206 866-5705 and give conf # AP307.  I did not call because I know this is a scam

I got a call from 202-000-1234. Saying I won $9000.00 of grant money. I did give them my address but then at that moment realized it was a scam. I did not give my accounts number. This worries me. I hope they get caught. Please do not fall for this.

They called me too. They had a heavy Nigerian accent. Even got upset when I told him I was not giving my info.
