Received call from a (Indian accent) gentleman stated I Qualified for a Grant from the Government just because I have no criminal record. He said the amount was 7000 dollars (wow my lucky day). He informed me I had to call his supervisor @ 202-697-9163 (a Washington DC area number) and speak to Rex Collin and give my Money approval number (LK619) and how I wanted my money which of course I said cash. Well it sure sounded like a scam but the Washington area number had me wondering so I called, and after a lot of questions which he seemed prepared to answer. I found out all I had to do was go to Western Union and wire $250 to confirm my identity, and that I would get that refunded with my $7000 grant money. So I then repeated back to him " I have to send you money to get money". I said OK sure but first let me contact the Attorney General in my state to make sure this is not a scam. He replied ok sir
I thought for sure he'd hang up, they must of been doing this for a long time
