The government does not call people up and offer them free money because you paid your taxes on time, have never been arrested, have paid all your bills, or whatever excuse they can make up. In order to get a grant you need a valid reason (not one of the above and not just because you need money), you have to fill out tons and tons of paperwork, wait a long time, and might not even get the grant in the end. If you are lucky enough to get the grant after all that paperwork, they do not ask you to pay taxes, transfer fees, or any other types of fees. Also, please note that the government would never ask you to pay these so called taxes or fees to some anonymous person using Western Union, Moneygram, or any of the cards such as iTunes cards which is a new favorite among foreign scammers.
They called my phone with my first and last name but I didn't know my age and they would even send me text messages from a weird number of a website they told me I had got a free Grant and I needed to go to Western Union so I can get the money but first I had to pay $258 to your card but I was going to get their money back also what seems kind of fishy to me because you don't have to pay for granted and to top it all of everyone knows when you purchase a gift card you cannot trace where your money goes to so I didn't believe what they were saying and I asked the woman that I was talking to on the phone if I could speak to someone else she got mad and hung up these were just some of the things that made me believe it was a scam what is the link they sent me http://obama.net/personal-grants/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Recovery_and_Reinvestment_Act_of_2009
