I received a call from the "US Grant Office" telling me I would be receiving a grant for $7000.00. I'm only 18 so the man was telling me that this money should be used in a proper way, no gambling etc., well he told me I needed to pay a fee that would be donated to a charity in a very poor country. The man told me to go to a Western Union and to send the money to India, I paid the amount of $120.00. From there the man sent me to "the federal reserve" where they were going to direct deposit the money, well I was told that there was a block and it was another fee. I was told that they would redeposit that fee with the $7000.00. So I fell for it and payed another $378.00. The guy told me it would only take 10 for them to send the money but when I got home. I checked my account and I was missing $50.00, that money had been automatically debited from my account to "The American Labor Society". That's when I Knew it was a fraud because I had been receiving calls from them for the pasts days telling me my application went through and that I qualified for a $35,000 loan. Which I never applied for!
