Got a call from this number and the claim you are eligible for $7000. They asked if I wanted it in my bank account a prepaid debit or western union. I said western union. I was given another number to call 202-657-5928. I won't be calling this number. If the government wanted to give me money, which I am pretty sure they don't then they would sent me an official check for me to cash. This sounded too good to be true and usually it is so best of luck to anyone who has to deal with this similar scenario.
Just got a call from this number. He pronounced my name wrong, and in a heavy accent and informed me that he was "Calling from the US Government" and needed to verify my information. When I refused and said "The U.S. Government does NOT just call people on their house phones to try and get their social security numbers, etc." and that I would be reporting him, he informed me "I am from the government! You have no proof I am a scammer! I work for the government and I am unafraid!" ........
Be careful. All of the scamming. Isn't it a felony or at least a misdemeanor to pretend to be the government and defraud citizens?
Some lady who said her name was Karla Wilson (but couldn't hardly pronounce it) with the same bs $7000 check from the US government for me that I would never have to pay back.
I said: My government doesn't give money away or pay peoplewho barely speak English make their phone calls.
She: hung up
