I got this call. Could not even understand the guy who called me, got frustrated when I told him he was not getting personal information he was not happy with me. Told him to send me a check. He said he could not do that needed information .. This is a big scam'!!!!!! DONT give out personal information :
I just got the same call today from the Demographic Grants department of the government. They wanted me to go to Rite Aid to get a verification voucher. Then I needed to call them so they could tell me what name to put the voucher in, but it's for $200 that I could use for anything I wanted. The grant is for $7,000 but Western Union will give me $6,900. After loading the $200 in the verification voucher, it would take 10 minutes for the western union code (MTCN which they gave me) to be activated and could get the money then.
I called Western Union and they said they have no tracking number for the MTCN they gave me. I also mentioned they they needed me to get a verification voucher for $200 first. Western Union said it is a SCAM!!! Do not do this!!!!!!
i didn't get a call i got several e-mails 1) stating he was a us soldier in iraq and needed to get his money out he wanted to tranfer it into my account so i should send my account info. 2) e-mail was nigerian saying i have a lum sum of money that needed to be transfered to me 3) now i have a e-mail saying that this is the FBI with the cyber crime division and they noticed I'm one of the indiiduals that was chosen to receive money from nigerian banks they even calling me a beneficiary don't reponse to anyone but this certain person investigating. they lefted me this number that is located in washington 206-317-3913. if i give my info to this email i will receive $250.00. hahaha think i'm that stupid if the FBI wants they can knock on my door. i'm not that stupid to respond to any of this emails. if i need or want money i can work for it in a legit way/ it's called a JOB!
I just got the same call. Almost fell for it but then I looked this number up on line and found this. Thank you all for these postings. It's a shame that people try to scam others out of their hard earned money. Where are their morals and values or their conscious for that matter?
