I recieved a call from this place about a goverment grant for 7500.00 and called the number that the lady gave me and it was busy the whole time.... the woman I spoke to said her name was Michelle Parker..
Scam! Scam! Scam! I received a call that I was being given a US Grant for $7,500. The guy said his name was Walker. Real fishey -> this guy couldn't even spesk english and became irate when I asked him to repeat what I could not understand. He also became irate when I told him I did not know the location of a Western Union office. The number I was supposed to call to speak to his manager is 202-436-9932. My Grant number was KS407. I am sure our Government Grant officials speak good english and don't get all worked up during conversations. BEWARE!
I got the same call saying that I was randomly selected because I was veteran they randomly selected my name. I was told that I would get 7500 in a federal grant gave me this number to call so I did i talked to a girl named Sara and she told me I had to go to western Union and pay 290 for insurance purposes and I would get it back along within my 7500 I googled the number to checked long be hold it a scam lets get these people they went so low to target so many people including a disabled vet.
thay told me the same thing,,,, go to western union send them $279 and thin ill receive $7,500... I mean $279 for $7,500 sounds real good.. They told me to go to Western Union because I WOULD NOT give them a credit card number to put the $7500 on it. I think the U.S. Government, no matter who or what is in charge, would do things like this by snail mail rather than a telephone call or e-mail. And I don't think the U.S. Government would have people call you who could barley speak English. I might go to western union just out of curiosity and a good laugh when I see the agent's face.
I STILL think this is a SCAM, BUT BY WHO ??????????
I just received an call and they said the same thing and gave me a code of BC071 and the phone number 202-436-9932. I so hope people do not do this. People like this need to be stopped. How can we stop them. Right now in this economy people are going to think this is real.
