Received a call from them like a month ago then got another one yesterday from number 3844 on my cell.  Same info...$6,000 in free gov't grant money.  Got upset with me cause I told him I thought it was a scam and questioned why I was so "paranoid".  I told him that people just don't randomly call me to give me "free" money.  Wanted to verify my info and gave me my "Grant Application Number".  I told him that I wanted to verify HIS info first, lol...this is what he gave me:

Frank Smith (employee #99632) from the US Federal Government Department of Health & Human Services.  Calling from Seattle, Washington.  Can verify with his supervisor, Nick Richards, at 206-201-2309.  I can check there government address which is 200 Independence Avenue, Washington, DC 20201.  Then we hung up.  THEN...lol...he calls me back again (from a different number this time: 972-453-9824) to say that he forgot to give me the website which was usagovernmentgrants.org.

SCAAAAAMMMMMM!!!!!

these muthf**kers wasted ma time calling me, and i would also like to know what i can do about them having my information and who i should report this too

Guy from India saying that he is calling for US Government to award $6,000.00 Grant.

Did not answer, did not leave a message.

Guy saying that he is calling for US Government to award me 6,000 grant and I do not have to pay nothing back. He call me from 926-543-2166 number and told me to call this 206-866-5054 number to claim my award.

THIS IS A SCAM. This is a version of the advance-fee-for-something scam where something is a grant, loan, lottery winnings, interest rate reduction, tax reduction, gift card, refund, doggie, cruise, vacation, free gas, etc., and the advance-fee is for tax, shipping, registration, insurance, secure handling, processing, etc. They may send you a fake check, may want your credit/debit card or bank account number,  or tell you to wire cash via Western Union, Moneygram, etc. They can put recurrent difficult-to-cancel monthly charges or a 1-time charge on your card or bank account, and sell account info to other criminals and you'll have to replace accounts altogether. Wired-cash is irretrievable - once it's picked up at the other end, it's untraceable and gone. If they want you to call them up for instructions, they may tell you not to discuss the wire with Western Union desk clerks but the real reason is WU clerks are familiar with these scams and will warn you not to wire the money. Report to US Postal Service Inspectors https://postalinspectors.uspis.gov/forms/MailFraudComplaint.aspx , the Federal Communications Commission http://esupport.fcc.gov/complaints.htm , the Federal Trade Commission https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/ and your state AG, as appropriate.

Is it possible to sign them up on pr0n websites?

@ not Important... what were you thinking... These people called me and now I'm harassing them... gave the number out to 600 people letting them know the story and to call and hassle them!!! Screw these tards. I call them 10 times... and he told me he was going to call the FBI... LOL. spam the scammers!!!!

they got me for 100. money is tite new it was too good to be true but said what the hell. And i sappose there is nothing we can do about it.They wonder why we are over there running there country for them

You don't even speak english. Your one of the Indian scam artists

Same s*** as above. Number that called was 926-543-2166

got a phone call from a lady who could barely speak english and she said I won either $50.000 or $150,000 was not to sure like I said she was not very good at english. she said I won because I had not filed bankruptsy in the last 6 years. all I had to do to get the said money was call 1-206-866-5054 and give them a grant # she gave me and my money would be on its way. i did not do any suck thing of course.

I would also like to know how they had my personal information, it does not seem legit and I sure as heck do not like that they had it how can I report this local police?

Just call the call and I asked what is all the noise in background, we are very busy at retriveing numbers for the government BS$%T I said and where did you get my number. it was picked from your area, that is funny I said because, i don't give it out being a private number, hung up on her and her t**** head friends
926-543-2166 refer to recall stupidvisor 2068665054 some jacked island number

the same thing happened to me! i get this weird call frm 926-543-2166 saying i will get $6000 from a grant through the government but it sounded like a telemarketing agency. you could hear all the other people in the background reading off numbers to people they were on the phone with. then they gave me a grant approval number and a callback number. it make no sense. why would i really have to call someone else? you usually have to apply for grants. why would the government waist the time to search names of people and hunt them down when they don't have to to give them money when we have so many people seeking the government for money everyday on their own? it makes no sense at all. besides why would the us government use a tele service through india to give us citizens us money?
answer me that one.

they called my house talked to my husband, wouldn't tell him much they wanted to talk to me, i called that # and it was disconnected. they told him i was going to get 6000 in government grants but they didnt tell him anything about sending money, but im sure they would have if they had talked to me...dont anyone try this it is a SCAM!!!!!!!!!!

Yes I just recieved a call from this number. stating they are the U.S Government/ FBI. I was recieving a grant of 6,000 dollars. What I would like to know is how did they get my information. They have my phone number address, date of birth and six digits of soc. And what they can do with it? I have reported the number to the FTC.

They are using a new number 206-317-1622. I just received this call today from 693-238-2311 with a approval # and a person's name about the $6000 grant from the government. Then they wanted me to send a $200 deposit that "she" said would go to a foreign charity but would be given back within 3 minutes of giving it at the Western Union. She was like I am going to say on the phone thru the whole time so that we can send yo back your money but then she said it was for verification purposes. YES THIS IS A SCAM.

i got the same dumb call and what was funny about it was that the lady that called me told me to call a different number and someone else would answer but it was still her...hahahaha that is how i knew that it was a scam what is the point of me even calling a different number and i don't even file taxes lol people are something else.

Answer it next time they call and tell them to go f$&k themselves real hard.

First a women called.  She gave me a conformation number and phone number.  I called.  Some dumbass from Washington state called himself chris Adams said that I was chosen for a gov grant in the amount of $6000.   First he said I had to go to the nearest western union and then call him when I got there.   He said I had to pay a $199 as a deposit and it would get refunded within the time it took to give me the grant money.   I did some research and found out it was a scam.

hi Mrs Emily my name is Mary Washington i'm from Jena La and i was told that i was approve for a government grant for 6000 dollar all i had to was paid 199.00 to received my money  i had to do a western union to get my money so i do that then i had to paid 399 to get the money  but i had to paid stated tax to get the money Mr Ashton Woods did not tell me anything about state tax on the money now i'm trying to get my money back because i left some of my bills unpaids that i need

Yes it is a Scam, why wouldn't they take the 200.00 dollars they are requesting of you from the 6000.00 "you suppose have coming." Don't you believe them.

SCAMMMMMMM!!!! ITS NOT REAL!!!!!!

they told me am receiving a 6000 grant money for paying taxes and i never filed....so this might be a scam...told me to go to closest western union to get my money but not to say nothing to the bank because it's a large amount. and to pay 200 deposit and it will be refunded back to me!!!!!this is a scam...

Claimed I am receiving $6000 in grant money for paying taxes on time.
