Got a call sayn I recvd a grant in amt of $9k...all I had to do was call 202 738 4649 Anyone heard this scam before.....the call originated from a 415 area code..
I received the same call from a number from a 723 area code. I could hardly understand the lady with her poor English , but she sounded from India. She also told me I could use the grant money for whatever I wanted. Sounds fishy to me. I have been looking to go back to school and have inquired at several schools online, leaving my phone number, which was a mistake. I now get calls from all over the US from telemarketers. I am sure this is how they got my number and why they are using the "Grant" scam.
I too this morning received this same call, and after doing some research found out it to not only to be a scam, BUT, to be a scam from a area code listed right here in our own countries capitol, Washington DC.
I don't know if it strikes anyone else as sickening as me that this crap goes on anyway, but to know just blocks away from the people elected to protect us from this "_____", there are hundreds of these scam organizations set up and never get in trouble.
If anyone knows of information on how to help stop these idiots, count me in, I would love to shove a boot up their "!!!" and the politician who backs him.
