Got a call from these foreigners from this number (206)317-1677 and the guy name was Eric Martin and was asked for bank account information or credit card number for a grant of $7000.00 from The Grant Dept but I had to pay a processing fee of $200! Yes they had my address and my cell number and knew my full name! I searched the number while on the phone and found out it is a scam number! I did not provide any information to him other than what they already had. I pray that no one falls prey to these people! These scammers are taking over with these scams! This has got to stop!!!
said I was chosen to receive a grant in the amount of $7,000, and to call this number to confirm an ID number that he gave me. I knew immediately that it was a scam and did not give him any information, he had my phone number, full name and my address. How are these scammers able to get all this information and how the heck to we stop them.
I received a call from the 206)317-7177 number and was told i won a grant from the government because i had no criminal history they asked for my account number to deposit the money i then told them i didn't have an account. They told me they would western union me the money..mm then i was told that she her name was Kelley would call me back After they confirm with the bank...SCAM!!!!!
Someone from this number called, saying that I had been approved for a loan of up to $3,000. My notes would be 300. per month, and there is no security of fees associated with the loan. However, I would need to go to Western Union to pick up the $3,000 AFTER I send them $300. Then, they would send me the $3,000 and the $300. I was told to call the above number for directions on how to collect. Each time I receive a call like this, the caller is a foreigner. It's upsetting, because this is exactly the amount I need today.
