I'm 74 yrs old. Three of my Facebook friends said they got grants. She sent me a link to contact Allen Frank who offered me a free government grant for $50,000. He calls me "Dear Winner". He doesn't have a number. You click on his picture. He said he was offering me a government grant. I started on 1.6.21 to get the money he said I had coming to me. I asked my friend if this was a scam, and she said "Oh no, why would I give you something that would take from you or hurt you? Go get the money ok. You're gong to get your money ok." My friends told me they got their money. She said to give him whatever he is asking. I was told I would have to pay fees. The money would be delivered by FedEx. He gave me a list of places to buy American Express Cards. I bought the gift cards from Walgreens out in the cold at night. The clerk didn't ask my any questions. She was young. The first $1,500 was to prove my identity. He is asking for another $1,500 today to pay the delivery fee. He told me he had made a mistake not telling me about the delivery fee. He is telling me to go quickly because the truck is on the way. My son warned me. I wanted the money to help other people so badly, l didn't listen to him.

A friend contacted me on Facebook Messenger and told me that there was a free grant program that I could win to get money, and proceeded to tell me that there was no money to be paid.

The app from this person who claims to be an agent from the federal grant seemed normal, asking for (name, address, phone number, age, home income and photo ID.) When I was done, he had me to click on a winnings page to see if my name was there and it was I highlighted my name and it claimed I won $70,000.00 but the catch was I had to send in my full check in order to receive the cash.

My friend contacted me on Facebook Messenger about a Government Grant. My friend was approved for a $13,900 Government Grant.. She did not mention a cost. I clicked on the link for more information. It said I can get a grant. I was to go to a store and get two $200 i Tune Gift Cards. I did not buy the cards. I did send a picture of my Drivers License on Facebook Messenger. I sent it to Miss.janetyellen. She contacted me again this morning asking when I could send the money.

I got several phones calls from two different numbers stating that I won $14,750.00 and they gave me a badge # and told me I would be getting a call back from a #202 number. They started to asking me how much income did I make and I stated I did not discuss that over the phone and then I reported it to the BBB, because I didn't think there was unclaimed grant money laying around to be clamed.

I got a text message allegedly from a friend who was on Facebook. It said if I give $1000 I can get a $100,000 grant. I gave my name and address but stopped when they asked for my phone and date of birth. I later spoke with my friend who had no knowledge of the text message.

A friend messaged me on Facebook about how they received $100,000 from the COVID-19 relief fund and that I could apply for it as well. They gave me the phone number of "Agent Melisa Kay Fowler, the administrator in charge of the ongoing CVDF relief Funds program" (their words, not mine). It's a "financial assistance program to help the retired, non-retired disable and employee, can be used to help pay for tuition, books, supplies, transportation, dependent child care expenses. Those who qualify could get a Fund to make use of it to maintain the standard of living. The scammer seemed unprofessional, which was a red flag, and also asked for all my information via text instead of through a form. But it wasn't until they asked me to pay for a delivery fee upfront that I was really suspicious. Pay $500, get $30,000. Pay $1,000, get $100,000. Isn't the point of the relief fund to get money when you don't have it? Also, I tried to search up the said Agent Fowler, and nothing comes up.

These scammers keep calling my phone saying I have been approved for a government grant. They wanted me to go pick out my Mercedes and call them right back. I made up excuses to get off the phone because none of what he was saying sounded right to me.

I applied for a loan online. I received a call the next morning from Kim Kelly a loan officer with the government. She sounds Middle Eastern. She said I'd been chosen from a couple hundred thousand people because I was working a part-time job adn am poor. She said they chose 19,000 people. She sent me a picture of a certificate with a $9,000 grant. She told me to take $200 and go to Dollar General and buy an eBay card. I told her she was a scammer. She said she wasn't a scammer. She said I wouldn't be paying her, just registering with the government. And it was important to register with the government. so they could never come back and try to collect on the grant money. She said the offer never expires. I am very hard pressed. I was so emotional on the phone. I was crying. My daughter is in jail, and $9,000 would change my life.
