They claim to work for some agency... They told me I was going to be receiving $4800 for the next 7 years in federal grants to help with my financial situation. I think it's a bunch of bull! They wanted a $175 one-time registration fee, but didn't want to take it from my debit/credit card or checking account... They want it sent on a Prepaid card.
I'm pretty sure it's a scam...
1. They refused to disclose address, company name, or government agency they're affiliated with
2. They're requesting untraceable money
3. REAL Federal grant agencies usually have access to your Social Security #, addresses and other personally identifiable information. These people didn't have anything other than my phone number, name, and location (City)
It would be nice to receive the money, God knows I need it right now... but I'm not willing to sacrifice any of my hard earned money to risk a potential scam...
