Who called from 2026097721

Received a call from Private # claiming that based on a survey my name was selected to receive government grant money.  The person speaking had an Asian accent and gave me the above phone # to call and verify after I would agree to give him the last four digits of my social security or drivers license # which I would need to do in order to get the grant money.  He only gave me his first name which was James, claimed their office was in Washington DC but wouldn't give me an address.  I promptly hung up.

the only legitimate source for grants is www.grants.gov and they will not call you.

ALL THE GRANT WEBSITES AND OFFERS ARE SCAMS!  They are using the Stimulus BS as the hook.    THE GOVERNMENT IS NOT GIVING AWAY MONEY-

well they are - but not to indivuduals like these scammers want you to believe.  

this offer is only to get bank account info so they can rip you off
