Received two call from this number.
The first from a "staff person", and the second from a "supervisor" who verified what the staff person
said.They told me that i am get qualified to receive a grant of amount $6000 dollar, for "being a good citizen and paying taxes on time".
They indicated that all I need do is to present myself to a Washington, DC government grants
department (address:  200 Independence Ave, SW, Washington, DC 20201),
Have proper identification, provide $199.00, "for security purposes"
First i thought that it was a scam but when i verified it then i come to know that it is real...
Then after that i deposited $199 and with in 24hrs i got my money...
& i m very thank full to him that he provide me the money...
So i tell all of you that get your money from the gov...

This is a lie it is a complete scam DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT FALL FOR THIS TRAP

Same thing.  A few calls from this #,  first I "donated" $99.00 to a "charity" in India,  He had me Western Union it.  Then told me to call the Federal Bank with a code.  Next day,  Federal bank called me to wire the grant money but he wants me to pay a wire transfer fee of $378.00,  then he says in 15-20 minutes ill have $7980.00 in my account.  I told him I had to wait because I'm a single mother in college and I didnt have the money right now.  He started to get rude saying I'd get the money right back,  in frustration I started to cry.  He kept saying what dont you understand?!  I dont know what to do.  If this is a scam,  my son's first christmas will be ruined.  Can people really do this?  I need to know if this is fake or unbelievably true.

This is an absolute scam.  Do not send any money.  Do not answer phone calls from these people.  I started to question the gentleman about the validity of the offer and he became extremely beligierent, accusing me of being harrassing and uneducated about the difficulty of performing multiple tasks at once.  He then called and left a message stating that he was cancelling my file and that I would not be receiving any money because of my attitude. This is a complete and total scam propagated by malicious and greedy individuals who have no concept of integrity and lacking all scrupules.

So, did you do it?  Did you get the money back or was this just a scam?

IT IS A SCAM.. AND IF I WERE YOU I WOULD REPORT THEY ASS..

PLEASE I REPEAT PLEASE PEOPLE DONT FALL FOR THIS [***].. I UNFORTUNATELY DID SO THEREFORE I AM OUT OF A $100.00 DOLLARS.. BUT AS FAR AS GIVING THEM THE 378.00 DOLLARS THAT THEY ASKED FOR  TO WIRE THE MONEY TO MY ACCOUNT I DIDNT HAVE AT THE TIME SO THATS THE ONLY REASON WHY I DIDNT.. WHICH I AM NOW HAPPY ABOUT.. BECAUSE IF I HAD IT THEN I PROBABLY WOULD HAVE SENT IT.. AFTER EXPLAINING TO THEM THAT I DIDNT HAVE THE MONEY THE GENTLEMEN BY THE NAME OF MARK JONES BEGIN TO BE VERY UNCONCERNED AT THE MOMENT AND VERY RUDE STATING THAT HE WOULD CANCEL MY ACCOUNT IF I COULDNT SEND IT BY A SPECIFIC TIME.. WHEN BEGINNING TO ASK QUESTIONS ABOUT WHERE THEY WERE LOCATED AT AND ADDRESSES I THEN FOUND OUT THAT THIS WAS ALL A SCAM.. ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY REFUSED TO  LET ME SPEAK WITH ANYONE ELSE OTHER THAN THEMSELVES.. IF ANYONE HAS LET THESE PEOPLE GET OVER ON YOU PLEASE REPORT THEM SO THAT THEY CAN GET CAUGHT SO THEREFORE THEY WONT BE ABLE TO DO ANYONE ELSE LIKE THIS.. YOU CAN CALL THE FTC (FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION) AT 1877.382.4357 AND FILE A COMPLAINT.. THEN YOU CAN CALL YOUR LOCAL SECRET SERVICES IN YOUR STATE AND FILE A COMPLAINT ALSO.. THE REASON FOR CALLING THEM IS BECAUSE THEY ARE ABLE TO HANDLE ALL CASES THAT INVOLVES FRAUDULENT ACTIVITIES..ESPECIALLY THOSE THAT INVOLVE OTHER COUNTRIES.. THIS SITUATION HERE IS REALLY [***] UP (PLEASE EXCUSE MY FRENCH) BUT EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON.. SO PLEASE DONT LOOK AT THIS AS A PUNISHMENT OR ANYTHING.. WELL IN SOME OF YOUR CASES IT PROBABLY IS.. BUT I KNOW FOR SURE THAT IT WASNT FOR ME.. I HAVENT YET FOUND OUT WHY BUT IT COULD JUST SIMPLY BE THAT WHOM EVER I DONATED THE MONEY TO REALLY NEEDED IT.. GOD WILL NOT PUT ANYTHING IN OUR PATHS THAT HE FEELS WE CANT HANDLE.. AND I SIMPLY DIDNT MIND SENDING THE MONEY TO A CHARITY OF THOSE WHO ARE LESS FORTUNATE THAN I AM.. AND GOD KNOWS THAT I WOULD HAVE DONE IT EVEN IF I WOULD HAVE NEVER GOT THE GRANT MONEY.. IT WOULD HAVE PROBABLY BEEN AFTER CHRISTMAS SEEING THAT I DONATED MONEY THAT I REALLY DIDNT HAVE.. BUT MY BLESSINGS WILL COME BACK AROUND TO ME TIMES TEN.. JUST FOR HAVING A HEART.. WHEN SITUATIONS LIKE THIS HAPPEN JUST TRY TO FIND THE GOOD OUT OF IT NO MATTER HOW [***] UP IT MIGHT SEEM AT THAT TIME.. AND PRAY ABOUT IT.. GOD ANSWERS PRAYERS.. AND TO THOSE WHO ARE USING PEOPLE WILL PAY FOR WHAT THEY ARE DOING.. JUST PUT IT ALL IN HIS HANDS.. UNTIL THEN IM SORRY THAT THIS HAS HAPPEN TO ALOT OF US.. AND ALL I CAN SAY IS BE CAREFUL AND ASK QUESTIONS NEXT TIME BEFORE JUMPING INTO A SITUATION HEAD FIRST.. BELEIVE ME I AM TAKING MY OWN ADVISE AS WELL..

THIS CALL WAS SUPPOSE TO BE FROM A UNITED STATES FEDERAL BANK.. NOT THE LOAN DEPARTMENT.. THAT NO. IS 202.657.6780 WHICH IS ALSO A CELL PHONE NUMBER MIGHT I ADD...

THIS IS A SCAM. Christine Harris IS A SHILL. This is the advance-fee-for-something scam where something is a grant, lottery winnings, fabulous vacation, etc., and the advance-fee is for tax, shipping, etc. They'll want your card info or tell you to wire cash via Western Union, Moneygram, etc. Wired-cash is irretrievable - once it's picked up at the other end, it's untraceable and gone. Report to the Federal Communications Commission http://esupport.fcc.gov/complaints.htm , the Federal Trade Commission https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/ and your state AG.

Man these [***] called me yesterday on my birthday and told me I was approved for a usa government grant once in a life time offer for 7k's...only thing I had to do was western union 99$ western union to some damn poor and the needy...to some damn body named Ashok Lohiya...idk who in the he'll that is!! But its really beating my ass..cause I can't see their damn face but I swear I put this on my set...Blood all day!!! If we should ever cross paths say as in court ima beat they ass!!!

my sis-in-law got a call from someone at this number and they told her she would be awarded $8,000. When she asked why they said because she has low-income and has no criminal record. They told her they could wire the money to her, she just needed to pay $300 for the transfer to go through and she would get her money. My sister asked why she couldn't just take out the 300 from the 8,000 and the lady said she is not authorized to do that. Good thing she researched the number before she sent them anything! Advice: whenever someone is asking you to send money in order to get something, its probably a scam and you should always double-check the number and company online...thats why we have these websites to help us determine frauds!

I got a call today from 202 657 6780 and the guy said i got a 7000 grant and that i had to call this number to get the verification number. So i did and i talked to a lady that i couldn't understand really, she told me i needed to make a one time 199 dollar donation to some place in India. so i went to western union and i filled the paper work out and the senders name was Bhubender Kumar and the transfer was going to Delhi India. I started getting a little uneasy so i said i wasnt going to do this, and she assured me it was legit. I didnt do it lucky after reading all these posts, and now this number wont stop calling me. These people are scam artist that need to be put into place, getting my hopes up  like that what A holes. I advise no one to do this. Oh ya and when i started asking questions on how i got selected she keep telling me what she already told me.

Her name is Sandra Johnson, she claimed. She scamed my husband first $99 then another $378. Then she wanted more $652 then she would give him his $8080 grant. I have three children and barely able to support thier needs and this woman took everything we had. Her # is 202-621-0870. We are heart broken that this would happen to us. She will go to hell for this.

i made all my copies and sent some to the fbi near my area and the rest was sent to mrs h.clinton to do further investigations. this has to be stopped.

i was told the same thing and she got me to i am going to the state attorney  did you do anything about this yet

first of all people ...do you know this saying' only fools give out money' ...when the president gave the grant as stimiulus no one personally received a dime it was all given to the banks....so see for that ...we live in a wonderful country with woderful people around ...a few rottern people  just like to lie their  way out and take other peoples money ....... DO NOT BE FOOLED AND MISLED .......they send this type of note to 100,000 people all over USA  ...just imagine if 10,000 people send these proffessional crooks 150.00 dollars how much they make ....these people are very intelligent ,computer literate ,kind , professional on the phone ...PLEASE do the math .....as for Cristine i do not believe her words ...she is one of them....DO NOT FALL IN THIS , IT IS A SCAM .......
