U.S GOVERMENT GRANTS 202-821-4757
Complaint 18723 Details

I GOT AN E-MAIL ASKING "DID YOU KNOE THAT YOU MAY BE ELIGIBKE FOR A GOV. GRANT?" I REPLYED AND IN A FEW DAYS I GOT A PHONE CALL 09/01/2011 FROM "FRANK SMITH" AND HE SAID THAT I HAD BEEN CHOSEN TO RECIEVE A GRANT FOR $4500.00 AND THAT IT WAS NON-REFUNDABLE, NON-TAXABLE AND THAT I DIDNT HAVE TO PAY IT BACK FOR LIFE! HE ASKED FOR MY SSN, MY BANK INFO, MY DOB AND ME BEING STUPID I GAVE THE INFO! HE SAID THAT THE GRANT WOULD BE IN MY BANK ACC. IN 48 HOURS. YEA RIGHT! I GOT ANOTHER CALL FROM "RICKEY FOSTER" WHO SAID THAT THEY WERE HAVING TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES AND THAT THEY WERE GOING TO WESTERN UNION THE MONEY TO ME. AND THAT ALL I NEEDED WAS TO GO TO WESTERN UNION WITH MY I.D, A CELL PHONE AND $150. I ASKEDS WHY THE $150 AND HE SAID T HAT IT WAS A PROCESSING FEE FOR THE WESTERN UNION AND THAT IT WOULD BE REFUNDED BACK ALONG WITH THE $4500 HE KEPT ME ON THE PHONE FOR 45 MINUTES AND HE SAID THAT HIS COMPUTER WAS BEING SLOW GIVING HIM THE INFO FROM THE RECIEVER THAT HE WAS SUPPOSE TO GIVE ME TO RECIEVE THE MONEY. WHEN IN ALL REALITY HE WAS WAITING FOR THE CALL FROM THE MAIN SERVER IN EGYPT TO LET HIM KNOW THAT THEY HAD RECIEVED MY MONEY! AS SOON AS HE GOT THE CALL HE TOLD ME TO FILL OUT THE PAPER FOR ME TO RECIEVE THE MONEY AND THAT WHEN I GOT IT TO CALL HIM BACK AND THAT IT WOULD TAKE 10 TO 15 MIN. I ASKED "ARENT YOU GOING TO STAY ON HERE TIL I GET IT CAUSE YOU HAVE BEEN ON HERE THIS WHOLE TIME?" HE SAID THAT HE COULDNT CAUSE HE HAD SOMEONE ELSE ON THE LINE TO RECIEVE GRANTS. AND OF COURSE I NEVER RECIEVED THE MONEY BUT THEY SURE GOT MINE! I STILL HAVE THE RECIEPT FROM WHEN I SENT IT. THESE PEOPLE SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO BE USING THE U.S GOVERNMENT LIKE THIS AND THEY EVEN USE PRESIDENT OBAMA'S NAME!!!
