Victim Location 78633
Type of a scam Government Grant
I WAS CONTACTED BY A FRIEND STATING THAT HE HAD RECEIVED A CHECK IN THE AMOUNT OF $100,000.00 FROM THE COVID-19 AND QUARANTINE AGENCY, HE PROVIDED ME WITH THE PHONE NUMBER, 1-301-463-7581, AND THE NAME OF AGENT, MR. JAMES DAVID. WHEN I RESEARCHED THE LOCATION OF THE ABOVE REFERENCED PHONE NUMBER THE RESEARCH CAME BACK WITH ZERO INFORMATION, UNABLE TO LOCATE. I WASN’T SURE, BUT I THOUGHT I WOULD CONTACT MR. DAVID AND ASK HIM SOME QUESTIONS RESULTS WERE AS FOLLOWS: WHEN I ASKED WHERE THE FUNDS WERE COMING FROM HE STATED THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT BUT WOULD NOT PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION SUCH AS WHAT AGENCY, ETC.. WHEN I ASK IF THIS WAS A LOAN AND IF IT HAD TO BE PAID BACK WITH INTEREST HIS RESPONSE WAS "SORRY THIS FUNDS DIDN’T HAVE TO BE PAID IT JUST A FREE MONEY ONCE YOU GET IT YOU HAVE GET IT THAT ALL AND YOU DON’T HAVE TO PAY IT BACK AT ALL" THAT IS HIS EXACT WORDING AND EVERY TEXT I HAVE RECEIVED FROM HIM IS ALWAYS CLOSED WITH "HEAD MANAGEMENT", TO ME HIS WORDING SET UP RED FLAGS. MY FRIEND WHO TOLD ME ABOUT THIS PROGRAM SAID THAT HE RECEIVED A $100,000.00 CHECK FROM BVN BANKING VIA FED-X. UPON RESEARCH OF THIS BANK I BELIEVE THIS IS A BANK IN NIGERIA NOT SURE DON’T HAVE POSITIVE PROOF. MR. JAMES DAVID HAS TEXTED ME 9 TIMES SINCE MY FIRST CONTACT, STATING THAT HE WOULD NEED MY "UNDIVIDED ATTENTION" IN ORDER TO COMPLETE MY APPLICATION. TO MANY RED FLAGS FOR ME. IF ANY ONE CAN SHED SOME LIGHT ON THIS PROGRAM I AM VERY INTERESTED TO FIND OUT IF IT IS IN FACT LEGIT!
