I have received several in the last week. I have been on line looking for loans. The first call I received was from someone named Derik ( sounded like from India )and I was to call 949-945-9517 to get my loan. I called gave all my personal information and they said I should have the loan in my bank the next day. Then i received a call from a women ( who sounded like she was from India) stating that I was qualified for a free Grant that was for 9000.00 , all I had to do is call Alice Parker at 202-470-6035, I called with the confirmation number and spoke with Alice Parker ( sounded like from India ) gave her all my information and I would have to go to a western union with cash and send 163.00 ( when I'm there, then I was to call ), then she would tell me where to send the money. then I received a call by the name sam watson ( sounded India ) 916-287-3815, he said he was from legal customer affairs dept. That's when I got on the web site and looked up these number and found out they where all scam's. Now all my info is out there. I don't know what there doing with all my info and It's not the bank info i'm worried about, now just a few minutes ago I received another call from someone ( he wouldn't leave his name, sounded like from India ) stating he was from USA Finance and to call 409-497-8162 with a confirmation number. I don't know how to stop it. I guess i'll call the police and see if they can do anything. Just be careful giving any info to anyone.
Based on the other posts, it sounds like this is an overseas operation and that makes it nearly impossible to take action. Especially when it is a nation that is not likely cooperate with an investigation.
