Caller is foreigner, says are name and tells us we've been chosen to receive a $25,0000 government grant or sometimes call it 'stimulus' money. He says it does not have to be paid back. Has called numerous times over the past months, leaving messages on our answering machine. Finally answered the phone...told him not to call back here...immediately calls back and uses profanity at me. Has nerve to call the following day and left message again. This time trying to make it sound more professional. Trying to get them to stop calling here.

Caller said that my name and number has been chosen for the $25,000 government grant and that all I had to do is deposit $200 for security and it would be refunded right back. I fell for it ! He tells you that when you get to a western union he'll give you instructions to send the money. You are actually sending this to a person I came to find out. You are not going to get anything out of this. As soon as you read the receipt number to him he tells you that your funds cannot go through because the western union you are at has a low maximum amount of money that he can send and then tells you that he's sending someone out from the bank of america to deliver your check within 2 hours. The next day they could not be reached. I looked on my receipt and it said to Goa, India. Then I realized, had it been an actual grant there would be no deposit. Please watch out for them and be careful. I wasn't.
God Bless you if you are in desperate need of money because I was and didn't think it through. I just counted it as a blessing until I was completely ripped off. Also says that the money is for a non profit organization. PLEASE BE CAREFUL !!!!!!!
