These people keep calling saying that I won free grant money from the government for being a good citizen and paying my taxes. I also do not have to pay it back. all I have to do is call them back a Jason Wright @ 206-855-6792 to claim it. a SCAM written all over it. he wouldn't tell me what company he was from  but his name was "Michael"  he had a accent too.

I was told the govt is giving me $9,000 with no expectation of payback.  1700 people were selected and I was one of them.  Gentleman spoke with a very heavy accent.  It was difficult to understand him.  He said I should call that # as soon as we hung up and ask for 'Stickley.'

I have received this call twice. Luckily I automatically knew it was a scam. Since when do you pay to receive a grant??

i was called by an unknown i believe they are hackers and i am reporting them to the police ...they told me that i won a government grant of 9,000 and they asked me for my credit card number and i  gave it to her she told me to write down a confermation num and told me to call steve lee at this number 206-855-6792 and i did and as soon as i called he picked up and cursed at me but the funny thing about this is that i gave them a credit card number that i never used and will never use ..ii don't have any credit card because i don't like to use them and i use cash every where i go ...but in still reporting them because they keep on calling me and herassing me ...i hope they get caught!!!!
