In an East Indian accent, the garbled voice indicated that had requested additional education. I never requested any such thing. Why would I, I'm 80 years old.

They keep calling me to tell me the same thing. He tells me that my computer keeps alerting them of problems and he's calling to help fix them.

Said they were calling from Microsoft and there was a critical issue with my computer that needs to be fixed. I told him there was no issue with my computer and I have not reported anything.  He said this was detected a few days ago from my internet service provider and it was critical, blah blah blah.  His name was Michael Johnson.   English was very broken and phone line had static.

This number called me and I hung up on them. They continued on to call me back claiming to be with "government financial resources" I hung up again, called the actual gov. Financial resources and was told they are trying to scam people. I reported them to 1-877-382-4357. Please don't fall for their nonesense!

stop calling me

Called telling me that there was a critical problem with my computer. Was insistsnt that I turn it on. Really!!!!! Do they think people are that stupid!!!!

YES!!! I have just under 4 years in direct banking as well as 12 + years in direct mortgage lending with personal contacts into ALL 3 major Credit Bureau Agencies. I tell this to who ever wants to listen, not to sound like a know it all. Rather help give some insight on this scam and others. First no major card agency works with any third-party company to help distribute US grants. Second, ANY government grant that you may or may not be entitled to will also be controlled by a true US Government Agency that will ALWAYS have a ".gov" website. Please please do not trust or believe anything these people say or promise.

I don't answer but they call all the freaking time. There was one time I did answer and it was medical questions, but I'm not sure it was the same line. Either way I want them to stop calling me.

Answered as I was waiting for a call from a 1-800 # regarding reservations for a scooter go n upcoming trip. Never mind barely speaking English. ..The caller was speaking spanish.I just hung up and they have called twice today already.

It is a scam!! They offered me a $5,000 to $10,000 for nothing!! They told me they just needed a credit/pre paid credit card expiration date!! I laughed at them and hung up on them!! They need to stop scamming people already!! Jerks!! ;(

Do not want these scam artists calling me.

I got a call from this number, no voicemail though.

I receive calls from this number multiple times a day, Have requested several times to be removed from any call list yet they continue to HARASS me daily. This is bull. State they are calling in regards to my eligibility for US grant monies yet they can barely speak english... really? Come on man.. this is bull and needs to stop NOW!

They told me that my application was approved. I told them I didn't fill out a application. Then the story changed and said the government was giving me free money. I said I wasn't interested. He said he never heard anyone say no to free money. Well guess I wasn't born yesterday! I knew it was a scam from the beginning, I just wanted to see what they were going to say.  You could hear other people laughing in the background. I eventually hung up. I'm very uneasy that they know my name.

they keep calling me 3 or 4 times a day i wish they would stop calling me

yap, liars and scammers.  i asked their address but they only give a PO addy in Utah. when i threatened to report them to police they became very belligerent and hung up

I rec'd 3 calls in less than a day - all scam calls. One said they were responding to my grant application. I repeatedly requested to have the calls stopped.

They call 4 - 5 times a day including weekends. They never leave a voice mail. When I call the number back an automated voice says there is noone available to take my call.

Please have them stop calling me.

Please have them stop calling my disability phone wasting my minutes and they wont tell me anything when I ask they hang up on me.  Cant understand what they are saying.

they keep calling my disability phone and will not tell me anything and hang up on me.

They called today and said they worked for the Federal Government and had a $6000. grant for me.  I needed to pay a one time fee of $3.87.  Is that just to get my credit card info?

When you call the number back, it's a mumbled automated name like Workas and pressing zero for the "operator" gets you the voicemail for "Losa" who doesn't call you back.  When they call the house, they indicate they're calling about a loan application.  SCAM.

do not want this call
