A man with a foreign dialect called me claiming I was eligible for a 10K grant. They gave me a confirmation number and told me to call another number. I called 2538436560. That's when they told me it was only 7K instead of 10K. They asked for $220.00 for the federal reserve bank to process my case. They will refund the $220.00 with the 7K. Why not take the$220.00 out of the 7K? They couldn't truly answer me.
Some guy with a foreign accent saying he was from the US Treasury Dept. and that my name and number were chosen to receive a $7000 grant that I don't have to repay. He then paused for a moment because I was not speaking and said, "Hello?" I said, "I'm listening," as I was waiting to hear what wonderful BS he would come up with. He said, "Oh, you're listening?" and something that sounded like, "Well, you're no fun," and hung up. If they call again, I'm answering, "Hello, this is Buddy the Elf, what's your favorite color?"
