...This unknown number called me, "dude" on the other end told me that I qualified for a ONCE IN A LIFETIME GOVERNMENT GRANT because I pay my bills on time (yeah...occasional lateness) I have never filed bankruptcy, have not been in any trouble legal and have not have any bad reports from the IRS. He reads his script and gives me a number to call. I call "John Spencer" who has a deep accent, but his name is John? (I'm not stereotypical, but come on) Anywho, he reads his script and goes through the steps on how to get my $9,200 government awarded grant money. I began to ask questions, make comment, provide suggestions on how to get the money without applying my $350.00 to this Greendot card. OH, homeboy did not like this, he gets mad and says, "you don"t want to work for the card, you think you are just going to sit there and just get the money". I replied, its a grant for my good citizenship and no I don't want to work for it....wait I am working for it, I have to drive my gas to go purchase the card, take my money add it to the card, call you, Mr. Spencer back then wait on the phone for 20-40 min while you load MY $9,200 on the card. Or should I say reverse or extract MY $350.00 that I just loaded off of the card. Then the signal will get lost or some type of phone issue will occur...the phone is silenced and then it hangs up.
I called back to see what happened...they just ran around and around. I hung up!!!
LIARS SCAMS AND FRAUDS. DONT DO IT
Thank you. You basically just quoted the call I received. How can people fall for that
. I'm glad I decided to do a reverse number look-up and check them out. That is how I found out it belonged to a cell phone.No legitimate company or firm would use cell phones during business hours, and no place of business would call after hours. You saved me from a 350 dollar loss and an unwanted lecture about trusting people.
I just received a Call from thr Gramt one time, retorn money Scan ,thats all it is, and if the Goverment is not doing nothing abut it they are wrong, somebody should be doing something about it, couse they are scam ming a lot of people, as if write now, The y are harrasing me on the phone all the time, liying and cheeting every body. PLease If any body calls you on a lie like that hang up the phone.
They have been calling me alllll day while I'm at work first time was a lady and every time after that it was the guy with the deep accent. He straight laughed and asked if I was crazy because I was asking him where he was from and what this ID# they gave me had to do with anything. And then he wanted the ID# continued to ignore any questions asked..
These people are wakooo and have nothing better to do with their lives apparently... Don't ever believe a word these people say!!
