SEND MONEY WESTERN UNION TO VERIFY THEN THEY WOULD SEND ME $7,000.00 IM JUSST INVESIGATING THERE WAS NO WAY I WOULD SEND THEM A DIME UO FRONT. WHEN I TALKED TO MATTHEW ROZER AT THIS # (202)621-0436 I TOLD HIM I WOULD NOT HAVE THE $250.00 UNTIL NEXT MONTH HE TOLD ME TO CALL BACK THEN. THIS WAS AFTER A UNKNOWN CALLER CALLED ME WITH THIS SCAM ABOUT A GOV'T GRANT FOR $7,000.00 OUT OF THE BLUE. THE WOMAN I SPOKE WITH DIRECTED ME TO MATTHEW ROZER AT THE PHONE NUMBER ABOVE WITH MTCN. WHAT EVER THAT IS, CAN ANYTHING BE DONE TO BRING THESE PEOPLE TO JUSTICE?

I have just received a call from an unknown number which has directed me to (202)621-0436 and I spoke with Matthew Rogers(?), who asked me to Western Union $250 in order to claim my $7K grant in which I am "entitled." Well, I said that I would further check into this and get back with him, due to just being awakened with the phone call, and he was pretty cool about it...
Anyway, i Googled the phone number and found pages such as this, which has prompted me to call a legitimate US grant office, and I was told that NO grant office will solicit you- so please do not fall for it!
You should report these callers to the Office of Inspector General @ (800)447-8477.
You may be eligible for the same grant $, however, you can apply legitimately at www.benefits.gov for personal financial assistance or small business funding, etc. or @ www.grants.gov for charitable funding, such as starting a museum or hospital, for example. (I'm sure there are other similar sites to apply, but these were the only two sites I was informed of.)
According to grant.gov's customer service representative, "9 out of 10" agencies will NOT ask you for a fee of any sort.
So please take precaution & I hope this helped:) -
