Answered the call, thinking it was business from Washington, DC, and was greeted by "Jordan" who congratulated me for being randomly selected from a**** 1700 other good citizens of the U. S. for a one-time grant of $9,000. I played along and he gave me three options for payment: direct deposit to my bank account; deposit onto one of my existing credit cards; or, wire transfer. Choosing wire transfer, I was then instructed to call another number for verification by his "Senior Accounts Manager." That number was 315-314-3200 and I spoke to a guy named "David Watson," but of course both he and Jordan had the same very heavy foreign accent and spoke very broken English. Bottom line--I had to wire them $211.00 "registration fee" before they would wire me back the $9,000 PLUS the refund of $211. Wonder how long I would've waited to get that $9211.00 ??? I chose to call their bluff and told David I would be reporting them to the authorities and they should be ashamed for working so hard to scam poor working Americans out of their money. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is!

I received a phone call. I did not answer.

They said because I pay my tax and bills on time I have been selected for a free grant of $9000. But I figured if the government wanted to send me that much money they could just send me a check with their stamp/emblem on it without having to call me about it. This is a bad scam.

Received a call but did not answer - BLOCKED THEM!

They say they are with the government and I have a check over $8000. I believe the government, that called me, would have my address. I mean they're the government! They will ask for birthday, tdl#, ssn#, bank routing and account. Beware, if u call that number back, the 'government' will not answer. Hmmm

Do not call me a***n,thank you.
