EESA grant
I didn't know I was being scammed and I paid this man who calls himself David Scott $800 in a Bitcoin account. He insists that it's a grant and wants more money for the IRS. I have not paid him anymore and don't intend to now that I know it's a scam. I really wish I could get my $800 back and I told him I wanted it back but no luck.

Before getting deeper into this too good to be true plot, I did a little research and found this page. The ruse is similar to one of the posts on this page. The name of the supposed lawyer is William James. The phone number is above. No phone calls, just text and personal information to be provided cannot be a PO Box. Income, text number, home address, and profession are all of the elements asked from the individual whose number is listed above.

EESA Scam
I received a message via Messenger from a woman I barely know. She said she got $90,000 from a program called EESA and gave me the phone number and email. Because I knew her, I initially thought it was for real, but when they asked me for $2,000 in order to get it I became suspicious.
It's a clever scheme because EESA stands for Emergency Economic Stabilization Act, a federal program. But if you look at their site, it mentions nothing about helping "helping the old, Retired, Disabled, stroke patients, Widowed, Citizens and Workers."
I finally looked up "is EESA lottery a scam?" and discovered it is.

Victim Location12930 Type of a scamGovernment Grant
Emergency Economy Stabilization Act, an Agent by the name of Diane Marcus Patterson contacted me through a person l know saying that once a year this government agency randomly chooses 50 people to receive this grant, and l was one of the people chosen. The lucky 50 will receive $350,000 as a part of a global grant, which does not have to be repaid. You are told that you must pay the taxes and delivery fees up front before the money is delivered out of Seattle, Washington by a UPS Manager. Taxes and delivery of the money amounts to $4,050.00 paid in the form of cash by purchasing Bitcoin at an ATM or purchasing Amazon, EBAY, or Google gift cards in the amount of $4,000 .Then you get in touch with the agent, take pictures of each gift card with its receipt. Once the agent says they have been excepted by the Ups manager, your winnings will arrive in 24 hours. You're then sent a SkyCourrier tracking number to track the shipment, tho it only says what time it supposedly left the terminal and that it's in transit. The agent keeps asking and reassuring you that it's on its way. The next morning l receive a message saying there was a problem and that the Ups manager needs $37,750.00 before it can be delivered. This is for Customer Certificate papers which is supposed to make the transaction legal. Needless to say l certainly couldn't come up with $37,750.00 dollars and by this time l knew it was all nothing more than a SCAM. I am out $4,000 dollars which was all l had in my savings. The person that saw my name on the winners list whom l know, says he got his money, but l find that hard to believe. I think he may be to embarrassed to admit it. So be aware people there is a crook on every corner waiting for a victim and l became one yesterday. 3/20/2022

Victim Location38088 Type of a scamGovernment Grant
I was contacted by Facebook from my, "supposedly female cousin," asking if I had received money from the EESA, which was stated as an "Emergency Economy And Stabilization Act." The person said, she received a check and wanted to know, if I received my check because she saw my name on a "Winners list," when she received her check . She said, the EESA is a government grant that is, "helping the old, Retired, Disabled, Stroke patient, Widowed, Citizen and Workers that their name was chosen randomly for Cash benefit." It wasn't making any sense, so I immediately contacted my cousin through Facebook messenger and I wasn't surprised when did not get a response. That is when I did my research and realized this a scam.

I was told to call Scott Williams at 859-592-4785 to see if I qualified. They then started texting me on my regular cell number. Today they pretended to be a different girlfriend on Messenger. I told them I was wise to the scam and they blocked me.

Was contacted on Facebook from who I thought was a friend about being selected for the EESA award. When I was asked to pay money to collect my government grant money. I knew it was a scam. Person hacked my friends Facebook account. To confirm this. I asked them about the friends I met them thro... they said they are doing great. That person has passed away two years ago. Always goes to show you when it sounds to good to be true. Don’t be Gullible

I was contacted by Facebook messenger from a person I know. She stated she had won money from EESA and all I had to do was contact an agent with EESA by phone text to 541-933-5362 and see if I was on the Winner's List. I did so and I was on the list and was told I would get $150,000 but I would have to pay a single payment of $3,550 for tax, insurance and delivery fee. I was told in all CAPS to not tell anyone until I received the amount so I wouldn't be disqualified. When asked if this was a scam they sent a good response saying it was a legitimate governmental entity. When I checked there was no way I could get to there website by the usual methods and the "real" EESA website said nothing about affiliating with Facebook and giving money out to anyone except banks, etc. back in 2008
