( already addressed here and in the forums a million times already.......everyone should know by now !!! ).
NOTE / NEW !!!! SIMILAR AND IDENTICAL CALLS NOW " ORIGINATING" FROM THE "209" AREA CODE.......same crap / fake calls / fraud attempts , just a new area code............
202 area code fraud scams !!!!!
PLEASE NOTE !!! THESE SCAMMERS ARE ALSO IMPERSONATING THE US GOV'T / SEVERAL GOV'T OFFICES AND PERSONS....BEWARE !!!
- they are also impersonating DEA officials / IRS / FAKE LAW FIRMS etc.... with threats to arrest you unless you immediately send money via wire transfer / western union to some offshore country !!!!! obvious scam !!!
some are landlines...many are cell phones...some are spoofed and linked to offshore foreign call centers / countries !!!!
we've traced back most of these numbers to offshore foreign call centers mostly in INDIA / THAILAND / AFRICA / JAMAICA ETC....
here's a few other numbers posted from the same area code offering a wide variety of scams / fake emails and scams after posting something on craigslist ( old scam ) ...... collecting for non existant " payday loans "....free money / scam giveaways / calling on behalf of a humane society..... $1,000's in free gov't money......... etc etc.....stories change out all the time......and the usual nonsense!!!

I received essentially the same message with a different code (Co 505). He said his name is John Wilson
(he has an Indian accent : India that is) and I was to speak to Mark Hall. I'm a very skeptical individual and
do not wish to receive a grant for anything from anyone, Furthermore it's a SKAM!!

The phone number (202) 559-7648 called my home phone telling me I was chosen to receive a $9,000. grant for which I did not apply. The man gave me a confirmation number - JM834 and instructed me to call (202) 738-1299 and tell them my confirmation number and that I am claiming my grant money. He also wanted to know how I wanted to receive it - direct deposit in my checking account, on my visa, mastercard, or cash. I told him cash because I am not giving out my banking information to someone I do not know. Then he wanted to know how I intended to spend it because the Government does not want me to spend it frivolously, like gambling (lottery). I told him I have bills to pay. I was waiting for that I had to pay some nominal fee for processing or something but he did not say that. He just kept pushing me to call that number. I decided to look it up and it is to a cell phone in Washington, D.C. I am not calling some cell phone that probably is not even in Washington, D.C.
