Called me 6 times today. Answered the 5th call. Lady, heavy accent, VERY noisy background like telemarketing office. Said they were calling from the U.S. Federal Reserves Department. Said I was to be awarded $9,000.00 grant money. Knew it was a scam from the beginning. Asked her to repeat what she said. She did, my response to her was "You're telling me that the U.S. government is GIVING me $9,000.00?" Woman goes silent for 5 seconds then says "no," and hangs up quickly. 30 minutes later, same number called me, I answered, a man this time. Heavy accent, again, VERY noisy background. Same intro, only this time I was being awarded $7,650.00. I said, "that's funny because a woman just called me 30 minutes ago saying I am getting $9,000.00!" Guy sounds confused and says, "did you get the money?" I said "noooooooo. because I know this is a scam and you guys SERIOUSLY need to come up with a WAAAAAAAY better intro than that." The guy tries to save face by saying "You think this is a scam? Can I explain why you're getting this money." So I said sure and he explains "The federal government is giving back money to those that are not bankrupt, paying all their bills on time, and have not defaulted out of a loan, so it's a type of reward, you are not to pay this back at all, you will receive cash money from Walmart, Quick'N'Loans..." I interrupted him and said, "You know I've heard this scam ON YOUTUBE, you guys SERIOUSLY need to change your script." ................................. He hung up.......... TOTAL SCAM.

Called me 4 times today. I answered the last call and heard a lot of background noise. A woman finally said hello; she seemed surprised that the line was open. I said "Yes?" And she hung up. Blocked the number.
They keep calling every day. And won't leave a message. Read other comments.
