I have had non-stop phone calls for weeks now - I finally answered, and the lady on the phone told me about how there was a $6000 grant waiting for me and that I had to pay $298 for it. I would receive the grant 21-28 days after my payment.
I asked EVERY question in the book and she explained very well; I ran this lady through the ringer! So when she asked for my bank name and city I gave it to her. Then she asked for their routing number and I gave it to her, but when she asked for my account number I grew hesitant. She reassured me of everything and told me there was a 100% guarantee. So, I gave it to her.
Smooth move ex-lax! I should have known better but she gave me her name TIFFANY EDWARDS, her personal ID# 3113, a cusstomer service number 1-866-999-1896, and a tracking number but I still was feeling uneasy about what I just did.
I sat down at my computer and looked up government grants and could not find their name on the approved list anywhere, but down a little further I found all these scam reports on them AND I FELT SICK. I closed my checking account before I even typed this letter (which was less than an hour after it happened). I really should have known better, but hard lesson learned and point taken.
