The female on the other line claimed to be from the "U.S. government in Washington D.C." Her English was very poor, and her words were hardly distinguishable. She claimed I was the recipient of a $7,000 grant from the US government because I had not filed for bankruptcy and I had paid all of my bills on time. She then told me the money would not come from Washington D.C., but would come from New York City. She could not mail me check, she had to have my banking information to deposit the check, or she could add the money to a debit or credit card, but needed that information as well. She could not tell me my name or any personal information. She would have to connect me with a "representative" who would obtain all of my personal information. When asked why she couldn't just mail me a check, she stated the "Act of 2009" by the government prevented it. When I questioned her authenticity, she just continued to state "We cannot mail you check or cash" and finally said "bye" and hung up.
