Type of a scam Government Grant

Received phone call (numerous through out the day, same number) stating that my social security number has been flagged and I have been approved for a federal government grant in the amount of $9,000 and all I have to do is confirm my social security number and bank account number and they'll wire transfer it to me. I asked to be taken off their "list". Man with a foreign accent, very hard to understand and it was from a call center with people talking extremely loud in the background. He hung up on me and not even 5 minutes later, I get another call from the same number with the same offer...different guy. I've now blocked their number.

I received a call from a gentleman named Marshall Johnson on my cell phone (which is registered on the do not call list) regarding a free, one-time, government grant in the amount of $5000.00. He gave me my name, address, city/state/zip and email address for me to verify that they had the right person. He then asked my age, if I worked or was self employed or retired, and if I was single/widowed or "happily" married. As I played along, he then gave me an ID number and a phone number (202) 684-8235 to call my transition office, David Arora, who would help me secure my funds in cash today. I was to go to my local Wal-Mart and call the number and get Mr. Arora on the phone who would then walk me through what I needed to do, and Wal-Mart would then give me $5000 in cash that was mine to spend in any way I wanted. Only 1500 people had been chosen as US citizens to take advantage of this grant and as a grant, it would never have to be repaid. Wow!! Hung up and blocked the caller.

On 9/26/2016, Caller (Simon from tel# (800) 804-8172 spoke either an Asian or India tone while introducing themselves with American names and surnames. Caller explains that I have been chosen out of 1,300 people to receive a government grant of $9,000, but I must call the verification approval office tel# (855) 523-0533 (Martin Freeman) who immediately asked if I would like the grant in cash or direct deposited. Cash means you must go to Walmart to buy a $250.00 gift card to certify and register with the government proving that I am the rightful person receiving the grant. After purchasing the card, I must call them back giving them the number on the card, and they will give me a special code number relevant to my grant.

Type of a scam Government Grant

On Sept. 22 I got a call from +12021258254 and it was a woman and she had told me that I had received a grant for $11,000+ and knew all my information. She then directed me to two numbers to call 13153203021 and 13608245019. I called and they told me I had to go to a grocery store, CVS, or a Walgreens. They said when I get there to purchase some sort of Apple iTunes card and then set up my account. I felt uncomfortable because it sounded fishy so I did not go through with it. I looked it up and it is indeed a scam and they are still going strong. I would like to report this scam and also would like to know how they found out all of my contact information.

Type of a scam Government Grant

They said I was selected to receive a grant along with 1500 other people. Then they said that it was required that the funding be used for home improvement, to pay your bills off, for business etc... After which they gave me a confirmation number to call 206-745-0822 along with a confirmation code to give to the representative. They said that it could be put into my bank account or picked up through money gram. Then they asked me for $300.00 for a processing fee. I have heard of these scams before. For one thing you have to go directly through the Grantor to get approved for a grant. You have to in most cases request it yourself. The picture below is suppose to be the business location of this grant company in Richmond Beach, Washington, 98177. By the way, they work through cell phones not lands lines like most Grantor's. If you get a call like this check the number with an address checker first to see if it is a cell number. If it is report it to the ScamPulse.com immediately.

The above 11 numbers are what the government grant scammers use on me. I will get between 6 to 10 calls a week from the various numbers. I have repeatedly asked them to remove me from their calling lists only to be hung up on. I hope you catch these losers so they will stop bothering me.
