302-231-1374

had a phone call from a weird number picked up and they said i was selected for a grant from the US gov  grant dept. they gave me the 302 231 1374 number to call back     Is this a scam?    

Things to believe:

• There ain't no such thing as a free lunch.
• If it looks too good to be true, it probably is.
• You have not won big bucks from a benign benefactor, a pot of pesos from PCH, dinero from a doctor, or a grant from a gracious government    <<<<<<<<<<<<<<
• The tooth fairy really does not exist
• Everything you read on the internet is not necessarily true.
• It is illegal to pay money for a loan or prize, BEFORE getting the loan or prize!
• "Free Trips" are loaded with mandatory & costly extras, and you usually must give them your card number after listening to a loooong spiel at a hotel.
• Microsoft or one of their agents did NOT cold call you to fix your computer.
• The moon is not made of green cheese.
• The IRS will snailmail you, rather than phone you, if there is a problem.
• Jackalope milk is not an aphrodisiac.
• If you "green dot" or Western Union money to a scammer, the money is gone.
• You should beware of Greeks bearing gifts, specially if the gift is a wooden horse.

Cold call from the United States Postal Service Supervisor Dora Davis 302 321 1374 claiming to be my last contact for delivery of a government  grant in the amount of $9400. and all I had to do was buy form a local store a green dot money card and load the card for $350. call her with the info and my check would be delivered to my home address, my reply was good luck and I was going to the PC and enter the phone # she replied that's fine and wala!

Was it real?

I received a  phone call from "No Caller ID". He said I had been selected for a grant from the US Government Grant Department.He gave me a 302-231-1374 number to call back on and a Code of TA104. A female named "Clara" answered. She asked me to purchase a Money Pack Card and place $250 on it (Money Pack cards are untraceable and treated like cash).
This a scam!!!!    


Caller: us grant dept.

I just received a call from that # and she told me my grant money can be picked up from any Western Union ($7500). But first i had to put down $250 security deposit... I asked her if it's a scam and she said no. Then I told her I just googled the number she was calling me from and everyone said it's a scam... Before I said anything else she hung up! HAHA

ITS A SCAM! ITS A SCAM! ITS A SCAM! ITS A SCAM! ITS A SCAM! ITS A SCAM! ITS A SCAM! ITS A SCAM! ITS A SCAM! ITS A SCAM! ITS A SCAM! ITS A SCAM! ITS A SCAM! ITS A SCAM! ITS A SCAM! ITS A SCAM! ITS A SCAM! ITS A SCAM!

they told me the same thing & to call the #  back when I make to the store. so she could tell me  which green dot card to load the money on.....so I called back to get address. they told me they where in Washington,DC..           its,  A     scam!!!

Just got the same call and I'm glad I looked this up. If I had 225$ to waste and it didn't matter to me then maybe I would try but not gonna risk it. Thanks for the warning.

Got this strange call about being awarded a federal grant (7500.00). Glad I didn't opt for the direct deposit option. Called the number and gave the code given. 2 or 3 rings later, the person instructed me not to call back due to "nothing here for you". They answered the phone NATIONAL GRANT FUND, Michele Parker was the name given.  MAJOR SPAM JOB!!!!!!

They called me and said they were with the United states grant service and I was getting 7500  they said they were in Washington dc

I've just got a call from a lady that said she from Washington DC and she said I could pick my money up from any Walmart and I should give her a call back when she didn't say anything about the  Green Dot card or anything she just said I don't need to pay anything you just call them back with the code
