Very high end scam. A man with a very heavy accent called me saying I had applied for a US Govt. Grant of $5,000.  I didn't believe him so I told him to call me back the next day.  He actually did call me two days later to explain the process again. He say that lots of believeable stuff like how the money can only be used for school, no personal expenses, gambling, or alcohol.  He gave me the address of the US Govt. grant building in DC, also gave me a fake website with nothing on it www.gov-grants.us, and also the name of his supervisor George Frank. He also ask for my accounts or credit cards or western union, but that I had to call this number 206-905-1512 as soon as possible to talk to accounting to a Jennifer Ross.
First call was from a number 616-980-2164
Second call was from number 416-364-1111
In both calls it was the same guy asking.  Scariest thing was that he actually called me back.

this Indian guy named "frank" called me and told me that I was going to get a $6288.00 grant from the gov. He verified my info and the zip code was 7 yrs old. so I ask him where did he get my information and he ignored my question. so I asked him how did he get my phone number and he told me that I called him. Then I started to laugh, and the rudely said "Do you want your money or what"? I said sure just send it to my address that you have on file. and he told me that it would be going to western union and all I had to do was pay $150. What a joke. I really hope people do not fall for this scam!!! This is the second time this same person named Frank has called me this year.

This number will at first call you from an 'unknown' call. Once you answer they'll tell you that you are entitled for a government grant, that you're steps away from receiving it, all you need to do is follow some steps. They will give you information about them at first and ask you to write all of it down. Eventually they will give you a phone number that connects you to them, the caller id shows it's from Seattle, Washington. Afterwords they will ask you witch way you will like to receive this grant, there's couple options, on your bank account, or cash it trough money gram. If you choose to do it trough money gram they'll ask you to head to your nearest Walgreens or Walmart, once you are there, they ask you to purchase a green dot money Boucher with 99 dollars in it. The Boucher is non refundable at the store but over the phone they tell you that you will get that money re unversed. After you purchase it they ask you to scratch of the verification code and tell them the digits on the card. After that they'll put you on hold for like 10 mins and come back to the line and let you know that they are you step away from releasing the money. They'll hang up and once you call back they will tell you that the next step to clear the app is to pay taxes the amount that they told us was for 550 dollars in taxes we refused to pay and began to argue with the lady on the phone, they will hang up on you if you continue to call them. I just want every one to know that this is a scam, hopefully it helps some people.
