Person called 4 times in twenty minutes while I was at work yesterday. I did not recognize the # so kept hitting the ignore button. the fifth time I answered just to put a stop to the calls. It was a man with a middle eastern accent, with very poor English telling me I had been approved for a $6,700 grant for paying my taxes and bills on time. He had my "maiden name", correct street address, and the town I work in (which is different than where I live) and wanted my zip code...I did not give him any information, but told him to go ahead and send the check to the address he had. He did offer to directly deposit in my bank account...RIGHT! He then gave me another # to call for verification. I did not call it, but did call my bank immediately! I think with as many people reporting this as I have seen, someone should stop them! Please make your "younger adults, and older family members" AWARE of what these people are doing! I now know how to block these #s on my phone as well!
