Caller states that I am qualified to receive 7,000.00 of Federal grant money to be picked up at any money gram or Western Union. I should call them back when I get to the store so they can tell me what to do next. He also said that I have to pay taxes on this money which is 250.00.
They must think I'm stupid or something. I played along with his game but if they got 7,000.00 for me then they can take the 250.00 from that and send me the rest. They also said that I should get a Government Registration Card to receive this money.

Ditto same call to me in pgh. Pa.

Same exact call came in to me yesterday  with same exsct instructions

Same exact call came in to me yesterday  with same exsct instructions

Said the call was being recorded by the FBI and it was for a grant from the government for $7000 .   They would send the money via western union or money gram.. this involves a hefty fee btw.... the address they tell me to make sure it's me is wrong and they continue to talk to me??? I'm pretty sure the government would question that...  I started to ask questions and made him stutter and repeat specific lines from a script .. I would have had to go to the store and call him back from there to start the transfer and then I would have to pay the fee/tax and hope the money comes through...  sorry not happening
