A woman, who told me that her name is Sabrina Williams and she works for the US Governments in department for awarding grants to the citizens who are needy for financial help. She called me using the following No. : 231/542 -67824. Sabrina told me that I was awarded a $10,000 grant from the Government, congratulated me and asked me as how I intent to spend it. She offered me a choice, to either she will send the check to my bank account or to mail it to me. Told her to mail it, and she even gave me the check number. Then she told me that I need to call this number and get confirmed from Mr. Ryan Spencer: 202/204-0472. However, soon after Mr. Spencer called me and he gave me a confirmation number, he also told me that I should send $150 as my donation for poor people, somewhere in a foreign country. He said that should go to a Western Union location and call him at 202/204-0472 to give me an instruction to whom to send $150 in cash.
Interesting to notice: that while I was talking to Ms. Williams and Mr. Spencer, I could've hear a background voices which were resembling a typical place where several clerks are working in an open area. Those voices appeared to be taped from somewhere and played during our conversations. I did not go to the Union Station, and no one called me again!
Same as Phymeron. Told me they could not use my credit card and to go to a CVS or Wallgreens and purchase green dot card for 190 and he would call me back to get the number off the card. He cliamed to be representing a drug distributor that I had recently ordered from in order to have it delivered. Unfortunately I did this and he kept calling and said he needed another before I realized it was a scam. Just today the same person called again after 2 months and tried the the western union trick as was done to Phymeron. needless to say I outright rejected him and really couldn't believe it was another attempt from the same entety. This person or these people had the last four of my credit card and knew that I had ordered from the company they claimed to represent. Very evil. I know this is happening to others and I cant help wishing that very horrible things could happen to the thiefs and lyars that they are. A very expensive lesson for me.
The absolute very identical thing happened to me one year ago, to the letter. I admit it, I stupidly fell for it. The callers had an Indian or Pakistani accent and also knew the last four of my credit card! They used 3 people (2 men and 1 woman) to convince me of their authenticity. That was exactly what I said, a very expensive lesson! Today I received 2 voice mail messages of nothing but tropical party music from this same number??? I'm wondering If there is anyway to catch these slime bags? I don't like to be revengeful or vindictive but in this case I'm giving myself a pass. I really do hope something wicked-terrible happens to these people, for I know they are perpetrating this crime on other unsuspecting people.
Asked if I needed to fill my tramadol or percasets. I told him I don't have a script for either one and why is he calling. He then told me he could get them for me for 180$. I said no and hung up. I then got 3 more calls from the same number and 3 different people the last 2 said they could get me any pain killers I wanted no matter what class. Just people phishing for a sucker
