Called me, and said I have been approved by Federal Govt for Asian Minority Housing and Medical Assistance of $12,000 a yr for 5 yrs, and will be paid from Bank of America.
She then transferred me to the so called Bank of America rep ( which I doubted highly). She said, to release the money, I need to donate $417 to some NGOs, and I asked for steps to donate the money, she said go to any Western Union or Money gram center to send to anyone. I asked, if you are a BoA, when should I send thru Western Union or Money gram? she went reading the script again whaatever was given to her.
I am 100% sure this is scam to fleece people of their money. But worrying thing was, she had all the details about me, possibly except the SSN.
