called said i was selected for this once in a lifetime grant of $7,000 just had ti get a $150 steam card where the money would be transferred and the $150 would be reimbursed. when i asked why they couldn't just apply it to mt net-spend card they said something about tracking how i spent the money i asked then if it was free why did they need to know what i did with the money? if i didn't have to repay this then it was none of their business what i do. they went into some long tail about using this for things of the illegal nature is why. then told them that i would have to wait until next week on payday to get the card they wanted. thinking that i will just give them some random number for this card to get a reaction. these type of people need to get some back what they are dishing out, don't you think so i feel that i should be able to mess with them and waist their time too.

They called me staring I was selected for a government grant chosen by my geografical area. They did not know my name so I gave a false name. She gave me a number to call her supervisor with a confirmation code to get a grant with none of my personal information needed. Started off GG 1003 (sounded generic)

Then John Nelson told me I needed to go down to the store buty a prepaid card that can accept 9300.00 which would have to be brought on a Google play card and that would be reenbursted. Like really dude. He was trying trying to tell me I had to st as y connected till after I brought the card. I knew it was a scam.

I was told that $9700 would be deposited into my bank account, but to do that they wanted $300 (refundable) paid to them via Western Union. They said the $300 is for the funds being transferred from state to state.

A friend of mine told me about this government grant she received. She gave me a phone number to text. It started out by him saying he needed me to be honest with him. I thought that to be weird since I would have no reason to lie. I then gave him my information, not including my ssn. He asked for a clear picture. I then began to think this is not right. He almost instantly approved me for a grant. Said I had to pay a delivery fee. That was about the time I backed out. Although thus person does have some of my information and a picture of me. I'm trying to text the necessary steps to protect myself from identity theft.

I was contacted by text about getting a free government grant for paying bills and household assistance. They asked for address, age and also bank account number or credit card information. They wanted me to send $650 for a $30,000 grant. I told I don’t own a bank account or credit cards, I told them my pension money comes on a prepaid card. I didn’t give them any account number or information or social security number. I told them I get my money once per month. They told me when my money comes, text them. That’s why I’m emailing you.

I received a call today on my landline. The caller stated they were from the Government. The caller said I was picked from the Government to receive a $7000 Government Grant. I laughed and said the Government never gave me anything. They gave me a number to call 646-968-8952. I called the number back. I knew it was scam. They said why did you call back if you know it is a scam. I thought I better call the ScamPulse.com and report it.

The scammer pose as one of my friends, and then states how he is enjoying this free grant money. He then tries to get me to text Frank Ola Moore at 734-506-1461. This is the second time this has happened to me, the first time I blocker the scammer.

I recd a phone call last night from a man with a foreign accent stating the Govt was going give me a $9000 grant. He said it was for good faith.

He gave me a confirmation number (NC1703605691391). I was informed to call them at 10:00 AM this morning and they would give me more information. I did not return the call -- I called the FTC to give them the scammer's phone no.

Roslyn Smith from the 202-656-6385 phone number contacted me to tell me that my name is the recipient of a $9,000 government grant.

She verified my phone number,asked my age, marital status, employment status then explained that I do not have to pay back the award amount.. She then gave me the award code (NG157) and a phone number of her supervisor for me to call. I then called the 315-563-1274 number and Sharon White answered. She asked me if I wanted her to explain what Roslyn Smith and said to me about the award. - I left out the part about the options of my getting the $9,000. One was deposit in my account, the 2nd I forget, the 3rd was picking the amount from Walmart. I chose the picking up from Walmart option. Roslyn the asked me when could I go to the Walmart - I said Monday (today is Thursday). I said that I have to go get my replacement driver's license (as my ID). She replied that was acceptable - that I should call back when I am at the Walmart. She would walk me through getting registered in the Federal Reserve Bank and that number ID produced would then be given to the Walmart clerk that would be waiting on me - to release half of the funds in cash and the other half in check. I said that I understood and that I would call her back on the 315-563-1274 number on Monday
