i just has a call from that number 206-201-2529 saying im able to get 7000 bucks from them but i need to pay 200 in order to get it cause its in washington and il state tax wont transfer that money i told that guy after getting my hopes up i dont have that kinda money and i wouldnt pay it they could just take it out of the so called money they say i can get he hung up on me after that
They just tried to get me. After he said green dot money pack I knew it was a scam. If any one offers u money VIA cell phn ask them first what do u need to do to receive free grant money. You will no from there its a scam
they didn't call me the grant office called me said I had a none repayable grant for 7000 but I would have to transfer 200 via money pak. I did, then want he called me back after around a hour. gave me this number to call to talk to the bank directly I did. the bank guy , toby Watson, called me back told me that the amount of 7200 was held dew to the IRS wanting their part of it. said I would have to pay 500 for taxes, I paid it, within 30 minutes, I had my money. so yes it is scary. don't post if u don't know what your saying.
Now, let me get a complete understanding of what you are saying. Toby Watson was not the person who called you. The grant office called you directly and informed you that you was entitled to $7000 of non-repayable grant money. However, in order to receive this $7000 in grant money you do not have to pay back, you will have to pay $200 up front (buy a money pak from local Wal-mart, Walgreens, CVS, etc.). FOR WHAT? What was the reason you "transferred $200? Then you said you received a call back from the grant office, in which you was told to call the bank and speak with Toby Watson. Where you not able to speak with Mr. Watson during your call or where you told he would give you a call back? I am wondering because you said you called and he called you back informing you that you now had to pay $500 more of your own money for taxes because the "IRS" wanted their part. Next, you said you paid the money and within 30 minutes you had your money. What was the $200 for you paid and why were you responsible for paying taxes on money you have not received yet? The IRS is known for taking their money before you even get yours or in other cases, you are responsible for paying taxes off your winnings once you've received the money. You can't pay taxes on money you have not received. That makes no sense.
