Type of a scam Government Grant
I received a called from 202-546-5878. The caller stated that I had been chosen to receive a grant of $9000.00. I was chosen because I paid my taxes, had no criminal background and is a u.s citizen. He went on to give me a money confirmation number and a call back number 202-455-5280. He told me that I needed to purchase an iTune gift card and load it with $250.00 that would not be used to pay anything, but the alpha/numeric code is needed in order for the Federal Reserve Bank to give me my money via western union. She wanted me to go to Walmart, Walgreen or RiteAid to purchase the card and stay on the phone with him through the transaction so that he could speak to the Western Union person at the store. I question him about this scam and he cuss at me stating he was tired of the S***. I asked him why he was cussing and does the Federal Reserve allow that type of behavior? He tried to apologize by stating that he was tired of people saying it was a scam and gave me some gop website to go on for proof. I told him that I pass on on the grant and he hung up.
