Kept getting calls from foreign men saying they work for the government and that I'd been awarded $7000 that I don't have to pay back because I didn't file bankruptcy nor have a criminal record. I told the guy I don't believe him n then he started explainin some crap in the worst English he could muster while chewing on something in my ear. He proceeded to list my name n my recently old address, got mixed up with his script and hung up. Seriously, I wasn't born yesterday, I'm not stupid and I know a scam when I see/hear one. You work for the govt treasury debt but you can barely speak english, and you have a name like John... wtf... I don't think so.

Just received a call a from foreign man saying they work for the government and that I'd been awarded a $7000 grant [not a scholarship or mortgage] that I don't have to pay back because I didn't file bankruptcy nor have a criminal record. I listen to him, then he began to rattle off some verification number and then a phone number and gave me instructions to call back and claim my award. Really if this was serious why would you have to call back.  These people don't want to work but they want to steal your money and talk about others that do not work.  Really were we born yesterday.

Just got a call from Mr. Sam Peterson. He said I qualified for federal grant money. I said I didn't need any money, and he responded with "You're a piece of s---."

That's why you should keep an air horn next to the phone!  That a$$hole will think twice before saying that to someone again

I just received a call from this number as well.  But I didn't answer.  I do not answer any calls from a number I do not recognize!!!
