My message around 4/20/15 was from 360-967-4395 and also said I've been chosen for a federal grant of $7,000. and should call back this number from 11-7 EST. I didn't, assuming it was a scam. Glad to find this site to share info re scams. Does any govt. agency follow up to stop them and where should one report them? Info on this site would be appreciated.
To report the fraud, go here:
http://www.grants.gov/web/grants/support/general-support/grant-fraud.html
Their number is listed , along with an email address, at the top of the page.

Try asking those yahoos what their address is.. They give you a PA zip code of 17603 for Washington DC! and an address of 202 triple 8 222 4431 Victor Field Road! Like any federal government agency would be working on a weekend anyway. And no one at that number can speak proper English. They sound to me like they are in India or something. Never give any personal information to someone that calls you! And don't call them back and give it either. Do not ever give someone money when they claim they will provide you with more money back! You are better getting 1% interest in a bank savings account
I keep receiving calls from different strange numbers asking for Amanda Burns. The last time I received a call from this number I asked them to remove my number from their list IMMEDIATELY as there is still NO Amanda at this number after about 100 calls for her over the last 2 months and they said "WHY?". I am so sick of these scam callers!!!
