Received multiple calls from this number. Finally answered and it was a man with a thick Indian accent saying that I was one of just a few people chosen to receive a government grant that would never have to be paid back. I asked him if he would like my social security number, bank account number including passwords and pin, and my credit card numbers. Oddly enough he hung up on me! Oh well - no free money for me today!
I use to get these type of calls all the time. Almost daily. All of this happened when I started looking for a job a few months ago and plastered my resume online. I suspected one certain website in particular. On Careerbuilder, it tells you how many people look at your resume. Every week I would see that between 12 to 20 people looked at it. I was like "Oh sweet only a matter of time before someone calls me for a job interview". Only thing was that nobody ever called saying they found me on careerbuilder. Only calls I got were from linked in and craigslist. I got suspicious and took my resume off careerbuilder. Ever since then the calls slowed down DRAMATICALLY. So my theory is these hacks go on websites where your email is public, such as careerbuilder and other sites.
