Type of a scam Government Grant

This person took over my friend’s Facebook account. This fake person had me believing she had received a grant from Global Innovation that she didn’t have to pay back. She went on to give me this agents website. I contacted him. He asked for my name, address, telephone number, and email plus the amount of income I was receiving. Then he ask for the amount of the grant I wanted to receive. He sent a list of grant amounts over with the amount I had to pay in order to get it.I applied for $120,000 and I had to pay $1500 in order to get it. It was so real. I thought I was talking back and forth to my friend and she assured me she had applied for $90,000 and paid $1000 to get it. Then the agent told me to get 3 apple gift cards and put 500 on each card, stupidly I did this and sent a picture of the barcodes to him as instructed. Once I did this he told me my package was ready for shipping but that he forgot to tell me about a $800 stamping fee. My fake friend told me she had to pay that $800 fee as well. I had been trying to call my real friend or so I thought but she said her phone was out of order and that she could only communicate via Facebook. Well, I really started thinking and called one of my girlfriends and asked her for our friend’s telephone number. When I got her number and call her. She told me that I had been scammed because she hadn’t communicated with me at all. When I told agent smith Davis I had no more money , he asked for the name of bank, claiming he was going to help me with the $800 dollars. I didn’t give it to him. So he kept messaging me asking when I was going to have the 800. I didn’t answer his messages anymore. Then I noticed all of his information on texts were erased. I am a senior citizen living on a fixed income. I pray you all catch these people so one else will have to go through this. They are targeting the seniors and low income people because they know we need the money. I received nothing, just lost my $1500.

I was contacted through Facebook messenger by a close friend whom I haven't talk for a while and I this friend have a special connection with me (not mentioning her name for privacy. Shen then told me to text David Clinton to this number 1(202) 855-9285 to apply for money grant from Global Innovation Fund and I did. He asked me who referred me to him and proceeded to mention my friend's name. Then he introduced himself and wanted me to fill out some information to process my loan. Asking my full name, age, gender, monthly income, email address, and home address for FedEx to deliver my package. Meanwhile the lady from messenger keep asking me if I've been contacting with the agent. She assured me that this is legit and already receiving her $40,000 money and paid 4 $500 gold American gift Cards she purchased. Then David Clinton send me a text that I was approved for 30K, 40K, 50K, 80K, 100K and I have to choose the amount. The bigger the amount the higher the processing fee. Then I asked how do I pay the for the processing fee? This is too good to be true. He send me a picture of a gold American gift card that I need to purchase 3 $500 from CVS or Walgreen for 30K that I was approved that I don't need to pay back. I went to Walgreens and there were only 2 left of the $500. Before that, I was praying to God to give me some signs if this is true. On the other hand I do believe my friend and I don't want her to get upset that I decline her help. I went home and did not get the card. I told my husband about the whole thing and he told me its a scam. So then I called my friend on the phone if she was texting me on messenger about the loan story and said she did not. That's when I realized she was hacked using her to contact me. I blocked the phone number and blocked that messenger impostor. I did not lose any money but now I'm afraid that they would do something from the info I gave them.

Okay I was contacted today through messenger by supposedly was my cousin and told me about this innovation fund and sent me a link to this agent they almost got me until I tried to call my cousin and no answer and then my supposedly cousin said he couldn’t talk right now because he had throat pain and as soon as he feels better he would call me then the agent gave me a list of amounts of money I could get and continue to message me about if I went to get the prepaid card for the fees and clearance. I called him out and told him it was a scam. PEOPLE BEWARE OF THESE [censored]!

Someone disguising themselves as "Ken Hollen" is trying to do the same thing. Ignore this person. His account must have been taken over. I new the real Ken and this is not what he would do.

Type of a scam Government Grant

I was contacted through Messenger by a friend asking if I wanted to take part in a grant program. The money was from a non-profit and there was no repayment. After sending a message back saying I was interested. I received a text message from 417-383-5764. I was told that Jake Davis and Justin Williams from Global Innovation Fund would be helping me get my money. They were to send me an $80,000 check via FedEx. They asked for several things from me, including my full name and my mother's name. I did not give them the information they sought.
