Consumer has been contacted numerous times by people claiming to be the IRS. They told the consumer that she was eligible for a government grant of around $7500. She was instructed to go and make a Money-Gram transfer of $750 to a random account. Scammers called the consumer multiple times on numerous occasions. Scammers were rude and forward with the consumer. Consumer was told that it was a scam and wanted to report it to BBB for further investigation.

Caller represented himself from the US Dept. of Health and Human Services who is "authorized" to give me a grant of $8400. I requested to know from which program and/or division with the US-DHHS and the caller was unable to provide. I requested to know what the grant if for and he said it is for me to use on whatever I want. I didn't believe that and continued to ask questions of the caller until he chose to cuss me (using the f-word) complaining that I wasn't listening to him. I asked him if he was a scammer and he didn't know how to answer. I repeated all my previous questions again telling him I would repeat until I received the correct answer from him. He escalated his frustration. I asked for his supervisor and/or manager and he became even more agitated. A "manager" came online only to repeat the previous discussion. I requested a website and proof that they were not scammers. The website given was governmentgrant.us; the website "looked" official; I told the caller I don't give information over the phone and he implied he would send me an email. No email has been received.

A foreign man call me and said I have been selected to receive some government grant money in the amount of $8,500. Asked me if i wanted it on my debit card, western union, money gram or direct deposit. Then he gave me a ref #KV143 and told me to call a different number. I called, the person on the phone said his name was Brian Douglas. He told me to go to my nearest Western Union, fill out the form, oh and there's a $250 security deposit. Once I have the form filled out, then i call him back at (646) 583-0103 and he'll tell exactly where to send the money. after I send him $250, they will then release the government grant money to me. Oh and that I will receive my security deposit back after they receive the money.

they said I was selected in my area for a grant for thousand two hundred dollars,but wanted me to send them two-hundred and sixty five dollars, and said that would be sent back to me after my application was approved. I did not send any money but upsets me deeply because I am a college student who could use the money.

I received a call stating that I'd been chosen to receive an $8,000 grant from the Federal Government. It was clear to me that the man was calling from a call center, as I had trouble hearing him over the background noise.

I was given an "Approval ID" number, a "Security Code", a website www.obama.net, and a phone number to call 206-925-3966. I was to call the number, give them this information and they would finalize my grant.

I did not call the number, instead, I got online and found that other people had been called as well and it's a scam.

I was called from somewhere in Missouri 573-714-6676. The man said his name was Eric (or Derrick) Bell.

Gave phone number to call 202-657-5467. Consumer called the phone number back. They answered the phone hello can I help you. Wanted consumer to pay $250 to show she had an upstanding checking account. Wanted consumer to go to Wal Mart and get a Green Dot money pak card. Contact is John Paul at extention 114. Instructed consumer to call him back when he had the money. Consumer thought it was strange from the beginning. Stated once she paid $250 they would deposit the money. She was to call back when she had the $250. Consumer paid no money. Caller had consumers name address and phone number. Just wanted to report the call.

An individual contacted me by phone claiming that I have been selected to receive a free federal grant for $9,000. I was then instructed to call another number 315-636-5896 In order to complete the transaction. A man by the name of Ron answered a proceeds to tell me that i need to send $210 in the name of Darren Lonton Atlanta, GA. I asked him if he was truly from the federal government and he stated that he was in New York and that he could not give me any information so that I may verify that this was legit until I got to a Wal-Mart and called him back so he could tell me how to go about sending the $210.
