253-205-0739

This number calls me several times a day. They never leave a message. I don't know anyone in Washington State and have telemarketer block. My phone service is limited and does not have the ability to block specific callers. Think it's telemarketing anyone know?

same here i call back and its disconnected!!! i answered yesterday they claim they are from washington and i have received a grant they are truelly not calling from washington lol sounds like india!!! if you figure out more please email me joeldreed77@yahoo thank you and letz crack these scammers

I do not pick up this call but they call at min. twice a day and do not leave a message. Yes it is some number from Washington.  I do not have the ability to block specific numbers but I'm listed on do not call registry.  I would like them to stop calling but do not want to pick up a telemarketers call - they usually don't stop anyway.  If you find out more information please let me know as well at lorisproat@gmail.com. Thanks

I get calls once a day from this number. They try to ask for Chelsea. I have told them repeatedly there is no one by that name here. They are obviously calling from outside the country. Today they tried to tell me they were calling from Washington DC!!!
Don't even try to talk to them they are just rude, don't understand what you are saying and will never stop calling! I am trying to block them.

This number called me today and asked for an unrecognizable name, when prompted to repeat they said"F___ You"  and then just sat there on the line.  I hung up and reported the number.....not that it will do any good.  I wouldn't answer this number if it calls you as I believe it to be some kind of scam looking to gain personal information on people.

whoever owns the number 253 205 0739 is a scammer. he tries to get my address and other information from me. he says he is in Washington yet when you call this number back all you will get is a busy signal.I do not think he is in Washington. Is there somebody who will stop this stalker and scammer. Enough is enough. I receive at least one call a day from this person. It needs to stop.

You know... the government really needs to crack down on these scam artists!  The government also needs to get the legitimate US companys that sell our names, phone numbers, and addresses to these people.  I have even had them curse at me and tell me to do the most vulgar things because I didn't want to talk to them.  Today I was told that I could receive $7000 and never have to pay anything back.  Yeah.  Right.  I told them that I don't believe a word of that and to NEVER call me back.  Well.. time will tell if they leave me alone or not.

Yes, these low life magets called me also, and I did not answer the phone...People will do ANYTHING TO STEAL in today's world (Your ID, Your Bank Account, SS #, ETC). The morals in America have gone down the toilet due to infiltration of people that have NO MORALS!!! I am from the old school era where you were taught by Parents & at School, that stealing was a sin, and the penalty would be greater then the crime. DO NOT answer any calls that you do not recognize the number for. I have caller ID, and when the phone rings if I do not recognize the #, I do not answer. If it is a legitimate call they will leave a message

I received a call twice today from this number. Some [***] [***] wanted to know if i wanted $5K. i went along with him for the 1st call and was give a 360.356.1049 to call within 5 minutes telling them [***], Robert, called and to reference JKL**** for my free money. He told me i had 3 ways to get it to me and i told him that i had no intention on giving him any personal information. That was fine with him, he just asked me how i'd like it delivered to me and i said western union. so fine, i hang up and forgot to call within 5 minutes. when i did remember, i call the 360# (located in Bellingham, WA) and nobody answered. I then saw an email with a few different numbers to try and connect with a live person. I tried 202.738.1197 and got a live person to whom i indicated [***], Robert, called trying to give me money. When they asked my name i told them today it's Woody Allen and i'm 32 years old. He asked if i had been given an offer of free grant money in the amount of $9K and i said "sure was"! I'm so excited to be receiving this "free" money. Please give me the details.!!!" he said someone would be in contact with me. Just a few minutes later, i received another phone call from my new [***] friend, Robert who asked if i was (real name and age withheld) and i told him i had no idea who he was trying to call but he must have the wrong number. 3 times he tried to say my last name and each time i kept saying, "pardon me, could you repeat that, i'm having a hard time understanding you". Finally, after enough fun and having to get back to work, i said, "sorry, i'm not interested in what you're offering". he kept insisting that i should take this free money. Again, i said i wasn't interested and would like to be taken off his calling list". At this point, i think i finally made him angry enough that he told me to SHUT UP twice and then hung up on me. Poor little [***] took his ball and went home.....not so much fun when people don't play, is it, "Robert" ???!!

My advice to all those people who get these phone calls: They are just going to keep coming and there's nothing you can do to stop it so i'd just have a good time with them. They are easily led and fun to pretend you're really interested so that they believe they got a live one on the line until......well, you indicate "sorry, I was just playing with y'all !!! Jokes on you. Glad i got to waste your time!!!!!!!

This number calls me several times a day, I finally picked up today out of annoyance and "Peter" says he is a rep from The federal government grant office and that I had won free grant money. I couldn't understand "Peter's" thick indian accent and asked him to repeat himself... and was told to go F**** myself and then he hung up. I called back and got no answer just a busy tone.

yeah I know. They are a scam they want your personal info to rob you

Same happened to me but just out of the blue. I told them there must be a mistake I was an FBI agent and we went allowed to take free money. All I heard was a click.

this number had called plenty of times and i do not answer since i do not recognize the number - one day i decided to answer and low and behold, there was actually a live person (female) that informed me that she was calling from the federal government grant office in washington d.c. and i had been awarded a seven thousand dollar grant - i mentioned to her to send me this information in the mail - she said that she would - she did not ask me for a mailing address - she hung up - fyi

I have had this same issue, told them to take me off their list and to quit calling. Today they called and told me to shut my mouth when I asked who was calling and hung up on me

THIS MAN WILL NOT STOP CALLING ME...He is so rude to me and I finally had my boss answer to tell him I died...LOL he responded..."oh so sorry" click. Hopefully that will make him stop. Who is this guy!

A man with a thick foreign accent called from this number (253-205-0739) and told me to collect the $5,000 grant (sometimes it's $7500 depending on the day) I have been approved for and he claims it is a government grant. He has called NUMEROUS times after I have specifically told him to stop calling me. Every time I try to ask him questions (i.e. how did I get approved for this grant? where did he get my information?) he hangs up. Today when he called I told him to stop calling me and he started screaming into the phone "SHUT UP AND LISTEN! SHUT UP! SHUT UP!" And I repeatedly said he needed to stop calling - he hung up again and I have blocked the number.

Same thing: the caller claims he's from US Grants. When he heard I was the wife of the person he was calling he hung up! This makes me worried about what information they have about us already when they call!

Just called me as well. A foreign-sounding lady informed me that she is 'calling from Washington DC, ok? And calling to let you know that you have qualified for a $7000 grant, ok?' Hmm, they need to change callers to sound a bit more legit.

They started to call me yesterday. I didn't recognize the number so I didn't answer which how I handle strange numbers. If it's legitimate they will leave a message which they didn't. They called back today. Bye bye number permanently blocked.
