Purportedly I was 1 of 1500 who had been selected to receive $9,000 from the Federal Government simply by having paid my bills, had no bankruptcies and had no criminal issues. All I had to do was to pay $210, the Western Union fee, for the money to be wired to me. I chose Western Union rather than have it deposited in my bank account or on my credit card!
Ernestine, either you're joking, really stupid, or you are the person that just called me trying now to put a positive spin on this. I'll opt for joking because I don't want to call anybody names or assume this is the idiot that just called me. This is definitely a scam. A woman just called me, telling me that the government wanted to give me a $10,000 grant. When I initially asked her what they were giving me, since I couldn't understand what she was saying, I asked her to spell it. So when I finally got "g-r-a-n-t" I told her that she was full of sh$t because first of all, I do not have good credit and second of all, if the government was "giving" me anything they would have somebody call me that could speak proper English. I told her to go to hell and stop calling me. Hung up and blocked!!!!! Scumbags!!!!!!
