Who called from 2898923965

I got a letter and a check for $1990.60,thought it was a scam so,I called the BBB and they said it was a scam.They told me to take it to my local post office because it was a federal crime.I called the number on the letter and the female on the other end asked for the claim number,after I gave her the number,she put me on hold and there were several ear piercing beeps and then she asked for my name and a number so she could call me back or I could call back later because she was with a client.I said I would call back,but the crazy part is,it was after 9:00pm,come on now what office is open that late?I called back the next day and talked to what sounded like the same female(I refuse to call her a lady because they are scamming people)and told her I called the BBB and that they said that this was a scam.She said"they told you this was a scam?I said yes thats what they told me.She said no this is not a scam,it's a legitimate company.Then again she asked if I could call back because she was with a client.I have tried to call back about 12 times and keep getting a recording.

I did not get a call but rather a letter stating that i had been selected at random to receive a grant in the amount of 37,000,450.00.The letter also contained a check in the amount of $1,990.60.I was told on the phone by a person going by the name Heather Snow.I did talk to this person at length about this matter and was instructed by this person to take the check to my bank,cash it and return by money gram in the amount of $1,550.00 and keep the balance.Then i was to receive a check in the amount of $35,450.00 as my prize.I was told it was not a loan but rather a grant that did not have to be repaid.I did as i was told and was told by U S Bank where the check was drawn on that the check was a scam and they told me that they were going to keep the check.I then tried to contact Briggs Stratton Dev. about thi matter and all i could ever get was a message stating the mailbox was full and the same message when i called U S Bank in Milwaukee Wisconsin.I hope this information will be of some help bringing these people to justice.If you need further infoplease feel free to contact me on my cell phone at 501-470-5798 anytime or E Mail me at [email protected].                                                                            Respectfully,                                                                            Jack R.
