Got a call from 202-738-4428 claiming that I was offered $500 in grant money from the federal government. They already had a few information about myself. Then they asked how I would like to get the money; cash direct deposit, or mailed. I then gave them my bank account information. They then said I will have to western union 297.00 as a security deposit. I did that then while I was on the phone with them for awhile they said they received the money and finalizing the process. After 20 mins on the phone they said that it will 8 hours because of my bank. The next day they called me saying I will have to western union an additional 640 dollars due to state taxes and I said I don't have the money and will call them later about it so I called again and ask for more info about how and why I I have to pay for so much. They said the state required to prevent money laundering.
