Offering $9,000.00 free grant money that I don't have to pay back! Called from this number, 1-202-705-1011. Wants to deposit in my checking, use my debit, or a money graham from Walmart.  Gave me this number 1-202-754-8454, to call the official grant rep. so they can release the money. I asked how much was it going to cost me, and they said nothing, it's free money and I don't have to pay it back. Took both numbers and blocked them!

    This number keeps calling me!!! I answered and muted it, after 10 seconds a woman kept saying hello. Annoying asf though it's called me 5 times today alone, I just blocked it.

      I received that call and the same numbers you mention above are the numbers I dealt with.  I chose the Walmart money gram - told I am not giving any money for this, but then I am told to purchase some kind of card which will cost $100.  While on the phone trying to understand the purpose of the card that will cost $100, I looked up the 206-596-0912 phone number and see there are complaints and other concerns and bring it up to Frank Leo the "Treasury Manager" that I was referred to.  He says that can't be and then hangs up....

    It IS a scam.  I generally NEVER answer calls from numbers I don't recognize.  If it's important enough, they'll leave a message.  (If it's a message with heavy breathing and then disconnects, you've got your answer.  BLOCK the number.

    Hello this are two numbers that are calling to scam 202 922 5904 and 315 352 0573. Calling to reward you with 9,000 from the federal and you don’t have to pay it back.

    Please don't answer and don't fall for this scam.  These are criminal predators looking for account numbers and other means of stealing from you.
