A women with a heavy Arabic accent answered the phone, unable to speak proper English. She stated my grandmother, a senior citizen, was eligible for a grant from the U.S Government for $5,000 (she stated "I'm from US Government and because your senior citizen and pay taxes you eligible for five thousand your dollar.") She said she was from the U.S Government. When asked to provide the name of the specific agency she worked for, she was unable to and just stated "U.S Government." When asked to speak with a manager, she put a male on the phone with the same accent, also unable to speak proper English. When asked to speak with a manager again, he put another male on the phone with an accent that was almost American, but not quite. They all yelled and stated "Just give me your Credit Card number!" When I stated I didn't have one, one person even told me "You're lying to me."
