Yes. So I have been receiving these calls for the last month or so. I have not been employed in 2 years. So, not only are my bills not on time, but are actually so overdue my creditors may sue me. I can't even claim bankruptcy. I called the treasury department because I know my government better than that. Julia (the supervisor who also does not speak English, either) gave me this phone number to call, 202 697 9719. Of course, no one answered. She claimed all I had to do was give this code AC472 and hokus pokus a Western Union will be sent immediately. Of course I do not have CC's nor a bank account. No job=No money=No credit cards+No bank account. Then she asked for my age. I told her if the Government gave you my address, phone number, name and credit history, they surely did not forget to give you my age.
I got a phone call today about a 9000 dollar grant. It was a chinees lady saying she was going to western union me the money. Then they said I need to bring 210 dollars with me. The first number was blocked and and they told me to call a 202-738-1706 to verify my ID number. So watch out I didnt pay anything because I had a similar thing happen to me a few years ago.
I got a call it woke me up so I was irritated. When the foreign sounding man said I was awarded $9000 gov grant. He asked if I wanted know why I was selected, I told him yes, but he had 30 seconds because I don't believe him. He hung up! I wished he had called later because I wanted to milk him for info and have some fun. I knew this was a scam!!!
