202-559-7648

i got  a call today and he said that i had got a grant for $ 9000 . all i had to do was to call this number the number is 2027381398. i think that it is a scam .

Same thing but this time its $9000 if this whole thing is true why is foreigner calling instead of the IRS. They even gave me a phone number to call and a confirmation number sound like he said the guy to call was Max Newman but when I called to ask more questions it was a woman who said she never heard of Max I asked what the catch was and she said I have to deposit $300 dollars i told her something didnt seem right and hung up the phone it has scam all over it i didnt give them information. this needs to be reported ive heard of scams like this over the news several years ago

Very strange call from this number , be care for this call.

Just received a phone call from 2025597648.  It was a man named Mike with a foreign accent.  He said that he was from the government and that he wanted to give me 9 thousand dollars.  I asked for his last name.  it was Smith.  I kept up the questions and asked what did he need from me.  His answer was "I don't need nothing from you.  F*** you."  I hung up.  The first time the number came up and I answered the phone and no one was there but the line was open.

I received a call from a man with a foreign accent, he told me the gov. is giving money: "to people that is loyal", I said ok. I said how much he said $8,400 I told him I was going to report him to the police, and have his number traced. Then he hung up. But his number showed up on my phone is 202-666-5450

Don't know who's calling me, but want it to stop.

who was the from and why

got   a call did not leave  a message , it was on my call id

Caller ID says Washington DC. No one there.

Got the same call, but he was getting frustrated with me and my questions and told me that he needed to verify (whatever he was trying to verify) to put my 9000 grant into my account and when I kept asking for his website he and why he needed very cation he yelled "to kill you, to kill you!"

Faced the same call, just dropped it . Please don't give any information

This person tried to tell me that I qualify for a grant of thousands of dollars because of my credit record is good and tried to get info . I stopped him in his tracks and warned him that I am reporting him to the authorities and to remove my number and name from his list. I also told him that  law enforcement will be notified. Please remove this name and number from your records and do not call. Thjs person sounds like he is coming from outside the USA. Thank you in advance for your help and taking enforcement action against this party.

I got a phone call from new york, Was  a guy telling me that i have to pay  $4000 fees for filo out 6 appicarion forms online

They called me and when I answered they didn't say anything for about 15 seconds and then they hung up. Glad I looked up the number and checked out what people are saying as I know this is a SCAM!

They call and leave no message

Received call on my cell phone. Male calls with news that I've been selected to receive a $9000 government grant to use anyway I want (as long as it's "legal"). He spoke in heavily accented English and was obviously reading from a script, as whenever I interrrupted him he had to start that section over. He said that the government had already put this money aside for me in a "Malasian" bank (??)--strange!! Was hard to understand all he said, but did catch that he'd give me a "confirmation number" to use in my claim process and he did say something about needing my credit card for some reason. He said there were 3 ways to claim this money.

I know the feds wouldn't do business like this over the phone, and certainly wouldn't use an overseas bank account to transfer funds. They'd more then likely send a 10 page form to fill out. :-) Anyway, I finally said, "Forget it" when he started talking about credit cards and Malasian banks, and hung up. Nine grand would be great, but this was an obvious scam, texbook almost.

I got a phone call from this number saying that I have been granted  9,000 from the government  saying they selected my name and number from a drawing , he than said he could put it  in my bank account or on my visa or debt card or western union . I than said western union and the call hung up ! for sure a SCAM !

Missed the call, returned it and got message "this number has been disconnected".  Damn! I really wanted to give him Scott Walkers (R-Wisc) name.  He needs all the money he can get, especially if it comes from out of state sources.

any of you apply for a loan recently? online especially? or have past due debt ? ,.. they could be calling to make sure you actually exist and the number provided was real....  A friend of mine works at a company similar its pathetic scam ...

Same story here, someone called me stating they had $9000 from a Government Grant for me. Wanted to know if I wanted that transferred to my bank, debt card, or Western Union. The guy couldn't even tell me my name, the phone number he called, an address, or anything! After listening to him fumbling up a few times and him not answering one simple question, I got pretty pissed.

I told him f' off and hung up.

Calling the number back does lead to a "this number has been disconnected" message. Not sure if it is even legit as it is very easy to spoof your ANI (Automatic number identification) aka Caller ID Number.
