received 2 calls. First one there was a long pause after I answered so I disconnected the call. He called right back and I declined the call, so he left a message, and I quote; "Go F--- yourself and F--- your whole family Ms Kim. I curse you...go F--- yourself". He had an Asian accent. LOL, I guess he wasn't having much success scamming people today!
Apparently, I was randomly selected by the federal government grant program to receive "tousands dollars free money." I asked the guy if he had something he could mail me, or at least email me so that I could verify the authenticity of the offer. Sure enough, he hung up. I wish I had been more clever; I could have kept him on the phone and had some fun.
Just had a call from the above, which has been happening all day. Finally picked up the phone and barked "what do yo want". Obviously the caller was a bit startled and said "Huh". I said stop calling me and he said "do you want the money". Wish these people would just go home and try to scam their own people. Technology is great when it is put too productive use, and not to scam innocent people.
Just received the same US federal government grant program call. He told me I would get $100,000 as part of their "loyalty program" (hahaha I'm Canadian btw). I acted all excited and asked how I can get the money and offered my banking information. I gave him fake numbers of course. As I was giving him the information I was telling him how this money was going to help pay for my mother's cancer treatment or at least give her a better funeral. I wouldn't let him get a word in edgewise. Then I told him I should give him my credit card number just in case. Part of the credit card number I gave him was 867-5309 (I sang it like the song). Then I asked him for his banking information because I wanted to share some of the grant with him. He then hung up.
