Received a call stating that I received a grant of $8000 from the federal reserve. and that I needed to call this number and give them a Money Approval Number MS407 and security code 9174. Seemed too good to be true. However, they had my name and address correct. but if they were calling from Seattle (206-801-0782
said they were advising me of an $8000 grant from the government that I did not have to pay back. Approval code MS407 and Security code 9174. I was to call 360-347-1373 to verify and have grant issued to me. Also asked what I would use the money for. I did call the number, a guy answered, said hello, hello? (like he couldn't hear me) then hung up.
I know this is a scam - was hoping to get some more information for reporting this.
They also told me I was getting $8000 from the US Treasury that I did not have to pay back. Told me to call 360-347- 1373 with money approval number MS407 and security code 9174. He said the phone no was to the federal Reserve Bank! BS!!
Just got a call from these people . This was the second time that this "company" called me , saying I qualified for $1,000 but of course I have to pay money to get the money. I know that this is false, obviously . You NEVER have to pay for something free upfront! If someone is giving you something than that's that - It's free. The call was from
206-345-6453 and I was referred to this number to get the " free money". I was told that this was from the federal reserve bank and didn't have to pay it back but that i would have to pay for the wire transfer
got an id # and security # . I can't believe that in this day and age that there are still scams like this going on. I hope that no one falls for this. Sometimes when people are in a place of desperation they want hope so badly that they will believe something like this.
