Received call on business phone 11:35 AM on 4/05/07 claiming millions of dollars available in grant money, for women, minorities, small business ect. Instructed to give my name and phone number at the tone (which I did not do) so someone could call me back with all the information to obtain my free grant money. When I tried to call the number on my caller ID there was a recording stating 'call cannot be completed as dialed'.

I got a call from a nutsforpoker.com - that's what led me to this site, not the number. I was told that I "already have an account and downloaded the new software", and had only to go to their site to finalize my entry into their poker tournament that weekend. The next day, actually. It's not true. I did neither. Their limited time, act now offers (for a fee of $55.00 + $5.00, BTW) are clearly a fraudulent attempt to get at your money.
Here's some info about these people... nutsforpoker.com is a site whose IP is hosted from Vancouver, Canada, but whose origin is in St. Kitts/Nevis... offshore in the Caribbean.
Guess where your money goes when they scam you?
Some responders on this site have claimed that they were offered a travel "opportunity" from this same phone number if two of you have combined income to qualify... Stop! Don't tell strangers with pretty promises your combined income!!!! When they call about a travel "opportunity", they appear to be inquiring about your income... do not answer... This could be a phishing operation.
BTW, if you want the operators of nutsforpoker.com's REAL phone number (which could be a fake registration) it is: 869-469-1212. If this number is a fake, they could face serious problems with InterNic for registering fraudulently.
Finally, DO NOT GO TO THE nutsforpoker.com site, or any affiliated site, to gamble. These are clearly fraudulent operations.
Finally, treat phone calls form this number - 307-764-8799 - , with extreme caution. They are clearly untruthful, offshore, and difficult to touch by legal means.
Happy Hunting!
