Received a call from Dist of Columbia 202-235-6743 telling me I had a $9,000.00 Federal Grant and to call the financial office at 202-656-9173 to receive my funds within the next 5-6 minutes. The DoC caller confirmed my home address and phone number and gave me a confirmation number. I called to see who would answer and got the message the Google subscriber is not available.

I received the same call. It was funny you have a person that's not speaking proper English telling me the Government is giving a grant from the Treasury Department.

12/1/16 got same call, Lady with less of accent put me on hold after getting my conformation #

As others have posted, I too received a call from a difficult to understand woman who said our federal government was offering me a grant of $9,000.00 to use for any purpose I need.  She asked what that would be.  She said the money could be either: direct deposited into any of my bank accounts, transferred to a pre-paid Visa or M/C, or delivered via Money Gram.  She gave me a "Money Confirmation I.D. #," and a (202) area code # to call to speak to a Supervisor who would handle the transaction for me once I provided the "Money Conf. I.D. #" that I had been given.  My brain started thinking about all the things that I could do with that amount of money!  But, my practical side was telling me that if something seems "too good to be true," then it PROBABLY IS too good to be true!  

I too received the call regarding $9,000.00. was given a phone number and verification number. I made the call and was told that I need secure the monies for a small price. That I could not hang up the phone. Creepy people so checked this site. If it is too good to be true than it is.
