Received call from 321 806 2951 It is a telemarketer saying I have been approved for a 5000.00 government grant... didn't listen long enough to find out the scam... but asked to be removed from the list.

I got the same call yesterday. When I asked him why the government would give a grant like that when they are in so much debt already, he hung up on me. Tried to call him back but they would not answer.

I answered my mother's cell phone today when it rang from this number.  It was a woman with a heavy accent claiming to be from the "US Government Grant Department" and that they are transferring $621 to my mother today.  I shoulda messed with her a little but didn't know if it was one of those calls that puts charges on your phone bill, so I hung up.

Just received a call from this number.  Caller identified himself from US Government and said I was approved for a grant.  Male caller had a heavy foreign accent and said his name was Richard Murphy.  He indicated that I had been approved for a $6000 grant from the US Government and it was not a joke (because I laughed at him).  He said he was based in Washington, DC at 200 Independence Avenue and that I would receive a check for $6007 that I will never have to pay back.  He said I had to call his manager Jacob Black after I hung up with him and that Jacob Black could be reached at 239-247-5446 and gave me a claim number.  He had me repeat the phone number and claim number twice.   He even asked me what I would do with the money and what my marital status was. Clearly a scam.  

Heavy Foreign accent with a name of Richard Murphy was a dead giveaway.  
Free money doesn't exist.
Where he claims to be based and where he called from were different (DC vs FL).

I just let him carry on the conversation to get information.  So sorry for anyone that gets sucked into this.  

Cheri, I personally wouldn't have called this clown back unless I had applied for a US Government Grant.
Please scrutinize your phone bill for next month to make sure your phone wasn't cloned.
Turn his fake butt into the Government for fraud!
Call the US Dept. For Government loans & them all the info you placed here.
