Who called from 2067929524

I just received a call from 206 792-9524 stating that I was to receive $9000.00 of government grant money that would not have to be paid back.  The person I spoke to said his name was Kevin Cooper and he wanted my name, address, bank acct number or credit card number where he would deposit the $9000.00 within 20 mins.  After talking to consumer protection I have found out this was all a Scam.  I was
lucky enough to close my account before any money was withdrawned.  

I actually received a call from (202) 621-0020 (Washington DC, per my caller ID).  The caller identified himself as Rob. His story tracked true to all the other logs, including that he was calling from the Federal Government Department, that I would receive a grant of $9000.00, that it would not have to be paid back, the "Money approval #" of "AK357". Rob wanted to confirm my zip code and my name,  he offered up the name of my wife as an attempt to validate himself. He then wanted a credit card or bank account number to deposit the $9000.00, and also offered an option to use Western Union as the transfer agent, Working with the State Bank of NY, but I would have to call back at (206) 792-9524'  the same number everyone else has listed,  I called back the calling number identified per my caller ID, and was advised by the phone company that the number does not exist.  I called the police to report the attempt to fraud me, and sadly, they were not interested in my providing them the two phone numbers. Thank goodness for Google to bring me to this blog. These rip-off artists should be shot!!!

I received the identical call as Pete, verbatim.  When he asked for my info to verify, I told him 'you called me - tell me what you have, and I'll tell you if it's right'.  He hung up on me - hmmmm

Not much police can do; calls originate in either India or Pakistan and spoof local numbers and use the 202 area code.

Thank you sir, I just got this phone call. But decided to look it up first
