Cousin said hello. 1st contact in a decade. I gave him my cell phone number and ask that he contact me on that instead. Said his phone was disabled and asked if I knew about TCF/$15000 available for free. Currently stringing him along so he may leave somebody else alone for a while. Sounds just like the girl and Idaho.. Let me know if you want me to let him get maybe $50 so it's prosecutable?

They literally are on rn tring to get money from my people. They are ACTIVE ON MY MESSENGER. Trace them . They took over my everything I've been calling them on my messenger n they aren't scared they are just going after all of my family and friends. But they are traceable and active

Richard William he said he was a agent from grant money and FedEx would sent it to me

same scenario. trying to get to pay up front fees for delivery and clearance

I was sent a message on facebook from someone I thought was my uncle but it wasnt. They told me about a grant and I believed it was my uncle so I bought a gift card for $700 and sent it to them. They are now asking me to send 3 cards with $500. I refused and knew it was a scam

Kroger offered a grant of 70,000 for an incentive. Paper work has been filed and a delivery company is holding the check for ransom and some Attorney named Roger is helping telling my friend to just pay the money she will get the check. She has lost everything.

I was messaged by her saying that I qualified for a government grant. She wanted my information to determine if I was able to receive the grant. She then said I did. She asked me to decide how much I wanted to receive. I chose 100,000.00. She then said that I would have to pay 1,000.00 for the UPS driver to bring it to my door within 24 hours. When I told her that was not possible, she said that I had to try and get a razor or visa card for 1,000.00, and send her the screenshot of it so then she could process the grant and send it to me. I did not get the card. She said that I could also pay it with my cheque. I told her that I would not do that. She is continuing to message me asking if I got the money yet. I told her no. She insisted that it was not a scam and that my life would change for the better with the grant. She said that I could also send the money through PayPal. It does not sound legitimate to me. I have not sent any money or purchased any cards to send to her.

What should I do in order to not have her continue to try and send the money. Should I block her? Below I have sent you her profile page.

I hope this helps you to stop her before someone else buys into what she is saying.

Thank you for your time and consideration of my potential scam.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Guy called and told me that he was financial aid dept with loan forgiveness and asked for some personal information. This has happened everyday for over a week.

I received a text from Agent Randy Cornell regarding a $30,000 government grant.  He asked me to send him $500 -- 2-$200 Amazon cards and 1-$100 Apple.  Then I took a picture of the receipt and the cards and send to them.

Now they are asking for $1,500 for taxes.  

I received a message in messenger from my cousin asking me if I had seen the government grant information on the news. She stated I should contact them to see if I qualified, so I did. I gave them my city, state, and phone number, but then got suspicious and asked my cousin to tell me the name of our Grandmother, they responded that I should know that information. I immediately called them out on being a scammer and they stopped messaging me. Now, this morning they are texting and calling my phone.

Caller to ScamPulse.com public line (10/17/22, 3:30 PM) described being contacted by an "old friend" on FB Messenger (likely a spoofed profile), telling him they'd received money from a grant program called "Gradient Gives Back" and he should, too. Sent him a link to a bogus Facebook page, unaffiliated with the 'real' foundation in Arden Hills, MN. ScamPulse.com advised caller this is a government grant / imposter scam we hear about frequently, and he should discontinue communications with this entity before they start telling him he needs to send money to claim his "grant," etc.
