I received a call from this number saying I was chosen to receive a $7000  Fed. grant with no repay I just had to send them a $ 300.00 Application fee to receive the $ 7000 first.  
Anyone else get one of these calls ?

Yea I just got one today

I just got one same thing

Yes, about an hour ago.  Same thing

I just got the same thing

sounds like a scam

i
i got the same call

It is a major scam I got the very same call yesterday and today an hour ago and the man with an very heavy India accent told me that he is coming and [***] me and then kill me and my family. All just because I told him he is a scammer.

A call at lest once a day, I have reported to Do Not Call.GOV
I have informed the caller (he has broken english) that a complaint has been made mulitpule times.
He goes into HELLO, HELLO

I got the same thing. I went along with it for a while. Same thick Indian accent. I told them to cut it out because they'd eventually be tracked down and go to jail. He hung up after that.

i jusdt recieved a call and the person say hi im office Greg i have  aller ID on my cell so i told him  if you are an offier why are you calling from Columbia.... he then pause and i hangup the ph. i think its a scam.

did anyone receive the money?

Of course not.   These scammers will tell you that you must first pay them money up front before receiving all of the grant.
The government doesn't just hand out grants.   This scam is starting to get long in the tooth,  but I guess there are still ripe cherries out there for the picking by the scammers.

be honest. did you receive the money?

This piece of [***] waste my [***] time.
scammer

Male person called in foreign accent stating that the government has grant money for me.  I told the person I was not interested and hung up.  He called back again and I told him to remove me from his list and not to call again.  He proceeded to call back a third time yelling at me on why I hung up on him and that I needed to listen to him.  He demanded that I give him a reason for not wanting the grant.  After he finished yelling at me and talking over me he finally let me speak.   I told him the next time he called back the number was going to be turned over to the police for harassment.  He sat for a couple of seconds and then hung up.  He did call back about 15 minutes later and I ignored the call.  

I have received about a half a dozen calls today from this number. They call once. And right away call back. I do not answer my phone to numbers I don't know. If its important enough they will leave a message. I figured it was a scammer.

Just recieved a call from this number a few minutes ago. I told him to get an american to call me back. He claim he was an American. When you try to call the number back its disconnected. This is a scam.

I get them several times a day. Only one of the many numbers they call from is any good.  Also comes thru a lot as out of area. I'm not vey nice to them when they call at this point.

This person will not take no for an answer. Have told him to stop calling we know it's a scam and he calls every day.
