202-621-0443

This number is a scam

I spoke with Albert Wonner-4401 who stated that I would have to pay $250 for them to send me a money order in the amount of $9k. This is a scam call....I have worked in the financial institution for 9 years and know that most money orders go up to $1000. This is a scam please be aware.

phone number 202-621-0443 the person I spoke to was Albert Warner ext 1401

I was informed that the US government wanted to give me $9000 then I was directed to this gentleman said I needed to pay them $250 before they could Western Union me the money the previous person I spoke to you said I wouldn't have to spend anything

having to pay for US Grant upfront is 100% scam

My sister just called me and said that the same thing just happened to her.  Albert called her and told her that she was approved for a grant from the US Government and that they were going to Western Union her $9k.

SCAM!!!!

I'm glad she called me before she gave them any money!

I received a call from James Anderson regarding a loyalty grant from the U.S. Government he then told me to call 202-621-0443 and give the conformation #TK009. I called aand spoke to James Cooper who advised me I would need to speak to the bank people to pay $200 then take my cell and a pen to Walmart, once I get to Walmart call back for the transaction code for the wire transfers. I hung up! Please be careful they had my information when they called

I spoke with an Austin Taylor and he said that I was chosen for a 9,000 dollar loyalty grant from the government and he gave me #AS518 to give to Karen.. When speaking to her , she said I would have to pay a one time fee of 250 dollars to recieve the grant money on my card..smh

I told them I didn't have money to do this they hung up on me

Yes. Same exact happen to me this morning. They said because I am a good royal citizen, they would give money 9000 dollars. It sounded fine but Albert Water said to send him 250 bucks for 9000 dollars. I knew it was scam. Thank God I checked  and verified with previous experiencers.

Got that call and was talking about giving me 9,000 and started asking me personal questions I said shouldn't you have all this information already. And he replied he was going to eat my pu***. And wouldn't stop talking dirty. He claimed he worked for for the government.

Talked with a woman who said I had received a grant from the government for $9000.00.  Not being stupid I said YAY to her and she said I need to choose bank card, bank account, or western union to receive funds.  She gave me a confirmation number AL214 and said to call the 202-621-0443 and a Senior Account Administrator would need to complete the transaction.  I asked if she had an 800 number,and in her Asian accent, she said she did not know what I was talking about.  So I said ok and hung up.  No way I would call them and charge it to my phone.  I know this is a scam,.  I get calls  like this each day.  Now I try to answer the questions right until it comes to my credit card # or bank account number then I give them a false number and I love to see them struggle. I wish we could rid this country of the low life who does this.

Um, that was what gave it away to you? That you think most money orders go up to $1K?

Not that you were going to get $9K for free?

That would have bought a lot of free lunches. Oh wait...

I liked your story except for one part. You wished we could rid this country of the low life [sic] who does this.

These low-lifes aren't in this country to begin with. They're across the big pond, either in India or Pakistan, Russia, China... you might get the point.

As other poster stated. It's not the amount that's the scam, or the use of money orders. It's the fact that you are being asked for an advance fee. That's the scam. You NEVER pay money to get money. There is no prize, gift. . . nothing. I am surprised, as you work in a financial institution, that you are not aware of this scam.
