I received a call from a private number. After multiple, multiple calls from them over the past month I finally broke down and answered. It sounded legit. There were lots of voices in the background obviously on other calls. The man had a thick accent and said he was from the government. He said that I was selected to receive $7,000 in grant money. He asked me to verify my name and current address. I asked him to let me know what he had. The information was correct, except for the zip code. He then asked my age, but not birth date. So, I gave that to him. He gave me a confirmation code and a number to his manager that I was to call "right away". He asked how I would like to receive the money; through my bank account or Western Union...I am no idiot, so said Western Union. After hanging up I had a feeling it was a scam, so I spoke to my mom and boyfriend about it, just to make sure I wasn't crazy. Figuring I would still check it out, I called the number baring in mind I wouldn't give out any personal information... . By the time I called the number it just kept ringing and didn't have a voice-mail. No government supervisor would not have a voice-mail set up! I then looked it up, and found that there were many similar stories, all using different names and numbers (all 202 area codes), but all with the same story. Scam...

I just received the same call. Like you, I'm not an idiot....gave no personal info and choose western union...I called the number like you did and the person that answered asked me to call back in 15 min as she did not yet have my file from the dept of treasury....then I did a reverse phone number look up and found this number to be a mobile from verison....gov office do not work through cell phones, this is def a scam...I am going to report it

They just called me from an Unavailable number I didnt give them any personal information. I listened to the guy that called me compared to the voice that I had to call back to and it was the same guy but tried to act like it was a different guy. Plus I would have to send the 200.00 to recieve 7000 dollars. I am not a fool this is a scam to get money from people please do not do it.

I just got the same call too and a woman with a thich accent wanted my to verify my name and address.  She said she was from the government and I was selected to recieve 7ooo for grant money which did not need to be repayed.  I told her western union and I also told her, if she was an american citizen then she would know that we have no states named' Westminster.
Its obviously a scam and a crime. Too bad or authorities dont do anything, if they did this wouldnt be getting worse.  Moreover, I have recieved emails looking very professional and legit stating they are the fbi-that could be used for terrorist activity and it probably practice. Duh.
