Type of a scam Government Grant
Got a call from213-217-9999 CA. They said I qualified for a grant from the government grant Dept. That I did not apply for just because I had not filed for bankruptcy and things seemed ok about my payments that I make regularly that had made me eligible . And needed to confirm my identity were going to send an email and paperwork to me. I was also told that I was going to recieve upto $14,000 as long as I spent it on something legal like bills food or home repairs and I did not have to pay it back. They told me to ple[censored]d while I was transferred to branch manager 206-204-5022 and I needed to have a direct deposit or a prepaid card available to recieve the funds. I asked them to just send me a check they said the treasury Dept could not do this at this time. While I was being transferred I hung up.
