Description
I received two calls on my landline. Yesterday and today. Callers stated they were with the Unites States Treasury. Caller had an accent. Yesterday she had my name address and phone number. The government went searching. 1700 people have been found for a $9000 grant. She said congratulations. I forgot her name. She gave me a tracking number BC2468. She gave me phone number 202-813-0907. She did not indicate a fee for the grant. I called the number back yesterday. I reached a recording. The party you are trying to reach can't take your call and this time. Please leave a message. I hung up without leaving a message. A different woman with an accent called today. Sated I received a $9800 Government Grant. She left phone number 206-596-0639. Tracking number GAC1227. Three ways I could receive the money. They would deliver in person, Receive on Gift Card or I could provide my bank account routing number. I did not provide information. I called the number back. A man with an accent answered hello. I said sorry wrong number and hung up. He called me back & asked was I trying to get the grant. I said I would report it to the Better Business Bureau. He got mad and hung up. I know it is a scam. Additional phone number on my caller ID 210-526-6628. A Naser was on my caller ID with phone number 202-750-0000.
