206-462-5138

I recd a call from an unknown call who told I was eligible for a 7000 benefit from the government but I need it to call 206)4625138 and ask for Mr. James and he will give me more info on how to get the 7,000 from the nearest wal-mart.

I got it too... to talk to james as well... did you go to walmart?

I figured it was to good to be true lol... i never win anything haha

Um excuse the hell outta me, but you dont have to be rude...

They said too send $261.00 via money gram and,I would receive $ 7000.00 the guy said his name was James Reed from the government and it was a grant.

The person who is calling claims to be from the government, and he is going to give you 7,000 dollars. When I called the number back I told him to stop trying to scam people and hung up on him, he then proceeded to call my phone repeatedly over and over again harassing me and about the 9th time he left a rude voicemail!
