202-738-1652

I answered a call from a number...get this...1044!!! I answered and a male with broken English instructed me to call 202-738-1652 saying I was randomly selected to receive 7,000 from the federal bank reserve...he asked if I wanted to receive the money through my checking account...debit/credit card or western union/money gram...I called the number all day...no one answered... once I got a recorded message saying the person wasn't available...not. business recording I might add...eventually a female answered and I kept questioning her about whether or not this was a hoax...she got very agitated and angry...I cussed her ass out and hung up

I got this call form an unknown number, the person on the other end told me I was going to get a gov grant in the amount of 7000 dollars, i did not apply for any grant and he gave me this number to call back 202-738-1652 so I called this number and the person on the other end got very upset when I told them I did not apply for a grant. this is a scam do not waste your time calling these scammers.  you will be giving them your personal information. DO NOT DO THIS.

I received the same phone call... 7000 dollars for not being put in jail, paying the feds on time, and no bankruptcy. Wtf? Oookay. He then asks me how I want to get the money. Don't have a bank account, so cash. Then the woman from this 202 number tells me one time processing fee, totally refundable. Yeah right, you're gonna skip out with that money lying [***] hoebag.

I just received the same call. My boyfriend kept warning me to be careful but I didn't listen. I went to Wal-Mart at their instruction to get a PayPal money card. When about to pay,  the cashier at customer service warned me that she just got scammed by the same money.  She sent the money and received ABSOLUTELY NOTHING back. I thanked her hung up the phone in the man. I'm so upset because I REALLY NEEDED THAT MONEY!
