I called back the number they told me; there was a man that answered this time asking for the Grant ID they provided earlier, and had my name already. They said I would have to deposit $250 first as registration in order to receive the $9,200 so that my "state department doesn't view it as illegal." I asked why can't they just send me the check, and then provide instructions on registration. He said they can't do that, I have to pay first.. so I said not interested. He said okay thank you for your time. I guess at least he was polite about it. ha.
Thanks for my smarts to look up the number first. Then I read your AWESOME reports that made me know that it was a fake call. I couldn't even understand CLARA. The saying is true " if it sounds to good to be true, then it is to good to be true!!!" I just don't Trust anyone anymore.
I got a phone call today They said that I was picked to get 9200. I didn't have to pay back. He wanted me to go to Walmart. Then he would direct me to do to get the money. I hang up because I was not going to give him any money before I got any money. I feel like it is a not ture. They spoke like they was from another country.
They just called me i let them go through their whole scam then they wanted me to pay a fee. I asked them why they need the fee if it was just going to be returned to me with the grant. they got pissed. Thenni said they couod send me the money then i would give them the fee. They hung up
Received several calls today from (206) 472-6031 telling me I will receive a grant of $9200 pretty sure it was fraud, but I listened anyway. Told be to call the same number back to see speak with my funds manager and they would tell me the process I need to follow. Have not called back, the first time the number came up and I ignored it the caller ID said Egypt.
