I was scam. I received a call from 3471665870 and a woman give me a number GA1401 to call 2069737948. So I call and talk to a Oscar Perpez, he told me I been selected for a grant of $7 330.00 but I should first of all go to cvs and purchase a green dot moneypak and deposit $330 and I did, he said my credit score was low so to get my money I got to sent $675.00 before they released my money that's where I knew it was a scam. He really got me.
I just got a call from a guy saying that I have randomly selected for a US federal grant. The guy is using this number (347) 166 5870, he then gave me a grant claim number RB 011 and a phone number 206-973-7948 he said if I want to claim my grant I need to call the number right away. The word SCAM came to my mind so I immediately search this number and glad I did it. I don't understand why this heartless people will try to get other people's money for free why don't they just get a job and not victimizing innocent people.
Hope my comment will help.

My husband got a call first by a steven king from a 347-166-5870. And the guy said you have been selected in a random government grant for 7000 all you have to do is get a green dot card and put $300 to the card without raising the card limit they said it was only $500 I was the card limit. And told my husband to call another number So I looked up the number 206 973 7948 and it came up as a Seattle Washington number. but when I tried Too find out what the 347 166 5870 number Was from it came up as sorry can't find this number. So if Anyone gets a call from ether of these numbers don't believe a word they are saying it is just a scam. ...
