Some scammer is now using this number to display on your caller ID when they call. They just tried to call me and it was some foreigner with a horrible grasp of English. It was not the SBA, disaster assistance, etc. Just a god-forsaken scammer masquerading as a legitimate organization.

This number sent me a text msg inviting me to play words with friends

It's actually SBA not FEMA. Though largely they work in tandem for disaster assistance. But, strange they don't at least leave a message as you would expect any credible organization to do. Great way to aid in disaster recovery. Distract my thoughts from the woes of my recovery to "who the heck keeps playing on my phone!" Way to go SBA!

This is the SBA Disaster Assistance. They are following up on your application for the low interest rate loans they offer for disaster recovery. They work in conjunction with the disaster recovery grant programs available through FEMA.

Just double checked with my parents who have been living with me since Superstorm Sandy - it is their flood insurance/FEMA rep's phone #.  Guess it is very legit

Goy a couple calls from this number.  Caller ID says "Texas."  Never leaves a message.

Anybody get calls from this #?

This is the SBA's Office of Disaster Assistance, Processing and Disbursement Center (PDC). When you apply for an SBA Disaster Loan your application is sent here to the loan processers in Ft Worth, TX to work it.

This caller was from the SBA loan division. I had applied for a disaster assistance loan after hurricane Ike and they were calling to verify some information on the application.
