Phone grant scam

I recieved a phone call at 7:30 pm on April 6. On the caller ID it came up as Gaurdian and the phone number was 206-415-9327. They informed me I had qualified to recieve a 12,500 grant as long as I was up to date on my taxes. I didn't think anything other wise because I had been looking into grants for school. They then needed my bank account number so they could depoist the money as well as charge me for a $29.95 prossessing fee.

They then proceded to tell me I would be given a ID number and NOT to loose it or I would NOT beable to recieve the money. I was then recorded saying that agreed to the terms and that the processeing fee would be taken out in 2 buisness days and that I would recieve the grant money in 4 to 5 days.

After I hung up the phone I thought about what I had just done and was upset. So I tried to call the number back and it said I had reached customer service and they were busy so leave your name and number. I did so and then tried the 800 number which I got the same message. Then I looked this up on the internet and found this site.

First thing I did this morning was freeze my account and I filed a police report. I just PRAY that nothing else happens. PLease don't let what happen to me happen to you.
