Wow!!! Thank God for the internet (Google). I just got the call from those jokers and yes when your in need, it sounds Great. First of all, I work for DC Govt. and living here in DC, if someone from the Govt. was going to call it probably wouldn't be a person of Indian decent (way too many AA's in DC Govt.) While i was on the phone, i could here noise in the background like kids playing/crying and i'm pretty sure she was in a house AND most important, , , the Govt. DOES NOT work pass 5:30!!!!!!! So, i played along and gave them an account that was good to deposit if it was real but they couldn't get anything from it. They called me back and said they couldn't deposit the money and i should go to Western Union. When i got there they wanted $130 dollars, , , , WHAT!!! Okay, so i was like, oh there you go. . . . ;I knew it was all BS, and i had a feeling he would call me back with something else because he couldn't get anything from the account i gave them. See some of us have our own way of protecting ourselves, , , , Scam the Scammers!!
**It's not even a good scam, because it sounds soooo ridiculous. SO I'm supposed to believe that our Govt. in the condition it's in is GIVING away $5,600 dollars, , , come on. In DC, make it about Chicken or Haircare or something. LMAO. . . . .
BTW: When they first call the number comes from (EDUCATIONOFFICE) 202-481-3310. When they want you to call back the number is 202-580-8344.
I got a call from this number they have gotten over 6 hundred dollars from me. Within two days
And I still have not got to receive my money this is a SCAM| DO NOT GIVE THEN ANY INFO
THEY JUST WANT UR MONEY they don't care about you at all.
Igot a call from a man stating that his with the US Government. He stated that I was going to receive a total of $5600 from the government to pay bills, go to school,etc and not for gambling. He ask for my debit card information to direct deposit by tommorrow morning. He ask for my last four digits of my SSN. I told him to call me tomorrow and we will go from there. I got the call the next day from a lady named (Jennifer) and she told me that they could not direct depoist the money on a prepaid card and I had to go to a Western Union to recieve the funds.I thought that stranged because the government does use prepaid cards. They even load tax refunds on them so I knew something was up. So I went and when I got there I called her back at the 202 580 8344 number and she stated I neededt o show my ID and pay $135 to receive the money and I would get it right back. I thought that was stranged because I never dealt with any Western Union before but, I don't think you should have to pay money to receive money. I think you have to pay the fee or sell tax to send money. (Jennifer) tried to get me to pay the $135. I wanted her to explain to me why and why is the government offering me this money? She just told me to call back when I had the money so obiviously, it's some bs. It's a scam.
Yes it's a scam dont give them any info they will give youre info to others and start getting calls and even texs from other company stating they have money for you we should do something about this it's horrible how these fing people want to get our hard earnd money with fake promises .
