Came through as Cell Phone DC on the caller id. Answered and after a brief moment where the call connected, the person said, "This is the U.S. Government and you have been selected to receive a $9000 grant from the government. I'm sure you..." I cut her off. She could barely speak English. The call center was SO LOUD that I could barely hear her. And when I told her it was a scam she hung up on me. There is another site where nearly a hundred people have reported the same call with various responses from the callers including "f&^k off." Btw, they won't mail a check, they will only deposit money directly to your bank account (which means giving them personal information so they can steal your stuff) and others have stated that they want you to pay first. Um... no.
blk female called and ask for me by first name. I said ok and who are you? She said that she was with US Government for wanted criminals. I laughed and she started to snicker and hung up. It's a scam!
I am sick of these people randomly calling my phone. This is the second time in two months where i received a call from them telling me that i have be selected for a 9,000 grant from the government. Any sane person should automatically know these people are scammers, terrible scammers. I told her i was not interested and she immediately hung up on me before i could. I was so angry, of course i called back and the number magically does not connect. I hope these fools get caught and thrown head first into the jails!
