Trying to get me to provide information for a grant. If they say they are from the US Government Grant Department, DO NOT GIVE THEM INFO!!! Every Government Agency has a caller ID they WILL NOT BLOCK!
They called me at 2:00 pm on a Tuesday, asking for me and saying I was approved for a $9700 grant from the US Government. I asked the woman to give me a website so I can read about it and she gave me this: http://www.usgovernmentgrants.org/personal_grants.html. She said that I either needed to give her my bank account information, a credit card or debit card information, or go to the local MoneyGram agency to pick up my money. She said I never had to pay back the money and that it would be tax free. When confronting her about this being a scam, she told me that it was not a scam and that if I didn't believe her I should read the website. I told her I didn't have time for this scam and I immediately hung up. The number showed up as +20 2 101 0010 and my Iphone says it comes from "Egypt". I asked the woman why is she calling from Egypt and she just said she is not.
Called a second time offering a great not to be paid back. Told me to call 1-866-978-8494 with my money ID number LM667 and I would get 9700.00 in grants.
They offer me a nine thousand plus dollar grant, if I call them back. I am not dumb.
