Got a call sat. Informing me I have money $6000 coming to me. I know this is false you can hear the call center talking to other people. They have a foreign accent so I told them ok ok send me the money they said no it's cash I told them no no I want a check they said they can't do that I said why not they said it's their choice I said no no and then they hang up I'll play their silly game
At least 6 calls per day for over a week now. They Never leave a message. If they have $7k to spare please donate it in my name to the charity of their choice.
Called and said I won a $7k grant for not having a criminal background. The guy had a very thick accent and knew my name, phone number (obviously), and zip code. He gave me the code to redeem my grant and asked if I was single to which I replied no. I hung up before anything else could happen.
Said they were part of th U. S. Government and I was randomly selected for a Federal grant. I listened until they started asking questions and I hung up.
That's exactly the same thing that happened to me, thing is though is that by the time I got another phone call, I asked him if it was a scam, and he was flat out rude. I know that he was fishy. Plus I got a call back number from him which I won't be using at all.
Word of advice; unless they really mean that they are from the US Treasury, don't accept at all.
