My phone has been rining off the hook today with scammers! I've started answering my phone with these as "Good afternoon, this is RMO (my initials), how can I direct your call?". They hang up every time!
Government money giveaway. I got a call 2 days ago with the same scam. The foreigner hung up when I told them that I saw an article on TV a few days ago but I knew better before then, I'm not stupid or gullible.
Foreigner called telling me I won a gov't grant for 9000 dollars. Said I could have the money sent to me in my checking, to western union or a grocery store. Her also gave me a 914-348-4715 # to call so the money can be released. I looked up the number, it's a scam...
Called me said I have $9000 in grant money from the US government. Calls me 5 times a day. Now I play with these ppl and oh boy do they hate me when I'm done with them. There swearing and screaming at me by the end of the call .
