Some random person calling to tell you you're due free money and you thought it was on the level?! You say you've been scammed before so I would think that would make you more cautious about this sort of thing. Lucky you didn't have the money to lose because you definitely would have lost it! Grants are applied for, not just given away for being a good citizen or paying your taxes on time or whatever other lie they come up with.
Received a call from this strange number. There was a lot of noise (conversations, laughs) on the background. No one spoke to me. I said "hello" twice then they hung up. I'm glad to see other ppl have received calls from this number. God, there are so many scammers out there. It's ridiculous.
Just got a call from this number and when I answered, it was a few seconds before anything was said. Then she told me in broken English not to hang up as she had important information concerning a Federal Grant to me. I hung up.
