2026210716

Received a call from "Kevin Stewart" of the "U.S. Government Grant
Department" at 200 Independence Ave., Washington, D.C. (I asked where he was calling from).  He advised me that my husband had been awarded a "grant" of $7000 because he was a responsible citizen, hadn't declared bankrupcy and hadn't been arrested lately.

To claim the $$, we were to call 202-621-0716 and give a "code" to whoever answered the phone.

I didn't call the number, but I didn't catch the area code the first time "Keven" gave it to me and when I asked him to repeat the area code, it took him a while to figure out what an area code was.  I'm suspecting a Nigerian scheme.  He sounded more African than Spanish.  The scary thing was he had my address.  I did not give it to him.

i got a call this morning from an unknown number saying the same thing you guys are saying. after i gave them my account information they gave me a code and told me to call 2026 5762 55. AND HE COULDNT EVEN SPEAK ENGLISG CLEARLY. He said i have to wire $280 and the money will post in my account as soon as im done. i called back and asked if it was a scam and he got nasty with me. i told him to never call my phone again and he kept calling getting mad and being rude. DO NOT FALL FOR THIS SCAM
