Type of a scam Government Grant

I received a text message saying I had been selected to receive a government grant for $150, 000 with a bonus of $15,000. I have been sending money to them for over a year. I have sent about $5000 during this time but never receiving anything. I gave them my checking account and routing number for them to deposit the funds. They wanted all the information to my account. My online login information for my account as well.

I have sent wire transfers and cashier's check to Nigeria and South Carolina. I finally realized that this wasn't right when they asked me for my income. Boy do I feel like booboo the fool!

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.

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.
