I received a call saying I was selected to receive a $7000 grant, tax free, never needing to be repaid.
I was given this number to call, along with a "money ID" number, and a lady's name to speak with to have a certified check sent to my home address.  The initial call originated from a local number.  I checked with my Congressman's office, and they said it is a SCAM.  My call was the third one today to them about this. I called the number to gather more info on the scammers, and msg said it is a Magic Jack number, their box was full and they could not accept more msgs.

There is one thing true about this. They are really on the behalf of our Government! Other wise they would be busted by now. This is going on for how many years?..1000000000

No its not.. It is a scam operation. A lot of these scammers doing this are in foreign country's and out of our reach..  Exaggerate much?

No.  It's a scam operated by Indians and various call-centers throughout  India.  Been going on for years.  They can't be busted because they are in India and the Indian government doesn't really to a good job in shutting them down.
