BBB Alert: St. Louis Mom Loses $9,000 In Phony Federal Reserve Bank Grant Deal   [excerpt]
http://www.bbb.org/stlouis/news-events/bbb-wa ... ank-grant-deal/

The woman said the scheme began in November with a phone call from a man who claimed to be with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. He offered her a $7,000 grant for continuing her education. By the time the ruse ended, nearly three months later, the woman had borrowed money from relatives and friends, her bank and two payday loan companies. She used MoneyGram, Western Union and Green Dot MoneyPak cards to transfer $9,000 to thieves in New York, California and India.

Near the end of her ordeal, she said she was so upset that “I was crying all the time.” She said that family members, store clerks and alerts on the Green Dot cards all warned her that she might be the victim of a scam. But the warnings were “going in one ear and out the other,” she said.

She said that each time she was asked for more money, the thieves told her that all of her advance fees would be repaid when she got the grant.


Scam: Advertisements offer thousands of dollars of "free money" available in the form of government grants  [excerpt]
http://www.snopes.com/fraud/advancefee/grants.asp

* The U.S. Government does not telephone people to offer them grants.
* Grants are never guaranteed, nor are they issued for no apparent purpose, so folks should be downright suspicious of any talk of grants where the words "free" or "guarantee" are bandied about.
* Real government grants require extensive documentation with great attention to detail. There is nothing simple or painless about securing a government grant.

the person I spoke to claim that I was eligible for a grant from the government. when he told me what street address he had for me, I verified that that was incorrect and he hung up.
it sounds like a scam.

And your probably the same person thats doing the calling!

When they called me the 3rd time, I answered the phone with "USGovernment  would you please tell me your location?" They slamed the phone down.

Hey all, just wanted to comment on this post. I just got a call from this number and the person talking to me had some sort of accent and I have a hearing problem and could not understand him. So I kept asking him to repeat himself and then finally he asked me if I spoke english. well i flipped a lid. I speak perfect english and i enunciate my words very well. So I said of course I speak English, can't you tell. Then I asked if I could speak with someone else who spoke better English and he said he would call me back. I did get the part about a grant though. But anyway I told him I wasn't interested in his effn grant and not to call me back again and he said Ma'am you are being recorded and I said I didn't give a [***] and hung up on him. Then I called him back and told him maybe if he didn't talk like he had a mouth full of [***] that then maybe I would have been able to understand him. He had the freakin nerve to call me an effn [***]. Can you believe that. I am going to investigate this and report that sorry poor excuse SOB and POS. Sorry the language but I am fuming. Does anyone know how I can get this guy???

I received a call from this number but did not answer it so they left a message and told me I was to get a grant for 6500.00 well I didn't call them back I came on here and googled the number 2064625443 and found out it was a scam
