I hope. If not stay away. It’s a maze of bs!

I was contacted thru Facebook messager. By someone impersonating as my girlfriend. From her Instagram account. They ask how I was doing. Then asked me if I saw the fox news last week figuring Steven Jones an attorney. Then stated they were awarded free grant money you dont have yo pay back.

I was super busy. I stated no didnt see it. Ut call me I'm busy. That person sent me Steven personal cell to text him and apply. I applied for the grant, giving my fill name, and address. They said I qualified, and then sent me . F.G.M

C.#, TICKET #, BATCH #,SERIAL .

Then had me select Claim grant amount. Choices from 5,000 up to thousands. I selected $50,000.then text again, said I pay delivery fee $1000. But would be refunded back to me. The claim grant money coming FedEx no taking number by by 11:00am at my door in cash...

My God so many red flags. I call my friend something just felt off. She said she didnt contact me. I went back to messenger. They deactivated the account which was thru instagram..alsoshow new instagram account, with no post or followers. My friend put an alert out on her page to alert others that it isn't her it's a scam.

My credit card cant refund because I received my purchased cards. They instructed me to contact The Vanilla prepaid card. I called put in dispute. And th hey gave me reference number but couldn't cancel the pending transaction. But will try to get the funds back to me. I have to fill out the form..and send it back. Meanwhile I'm in debt $1000.00 they instructed me to send text them front and back of the cards. So they pull money off the cards. I'm so upset I fell for this, so I'm reporting them.

I hope they get caught prosecuted. They cell text me from is different from the website contact number. The cell is(330) 970-6714. Once I text them they are a scammer. I went back and try tell them on Facebook messager and they account has been deactivate.

I appreciate any assistance that you can offer to help stop, this from happening to somelse, and possibly getting my money back from these despicable people. God knows what we already going thru.

I was contacted by this group through a friend who had received money from them, I trusted this friend and to my shame sent $16,000, my savings to them. It has been a constant hustle sense then. Always asking for more money, showing me this check, made out to me for $170,000, I just need to send a little more money to get it insured and released.

Type of a scam Phishing

Someone used a version of my name and stole my Facebook profile pictures to create an Instagram account. They began contacting my Facebook friends about a 2020 grant program from American Hope Resources (AHR). They claim to have received $50k and then asked if my friend knew of a specific attorney. I won't leave his name because his page has a post saying they are using his name as part of the scam and he has absolutely no affiliation with AHR. They are using MY information to try to victimize other veterans.

I am reporting a scam (which appears to be nationwide) via an "attorney" named Bill Buchanan who said a free grant was available via "American Hope Resources" affiliated with National Endowment for Humanities. When I asked Buchanan at which state bar he was a member, he said MI, IN and DC. I checked these state bars & he was not listed at any. He gave his biz address as 914 E. Atwater Ave., Bloomington, IN 47401, which is bogus --no "East" Atwater Ave.

They 1st used a hacked friend's FB messenger account to contact me. My alleged "friend" kept urging me to apply to this program to get a free grant. I wrote to my friend's FB messenger account, who confirmed she had been hacked. My alleged "friend" gave me a "private" phone number to text an 'honest' attorney--Bill Buchanan, and he responded (on a Sat.) by asking for my Full name; Address; Text #; Age; Occupation; Personal email; Monthly income; Reason of apply [sic]. Once I provided this information, Buchanan said I had to wait while they inputted my info in a database to see if I "qualified".

Buchanan then gave me a claim #, a ticket #, a batch # and serial # to write down. Then he congratulated me for having been awarded a grant "authorized by the AHR Board". Then he offered to give me the award via cash or check. He said I was to keep "...this notification strictly from public notice until your claim has been processed and our AHR winning [sic] is remitted and delivered to you". Then I was to choose the amount of my "prize" but would not receive it until I paid "tax liability and delivery fees". Buchanan then sent me a chart listing various prize amounts associated with fees, starting from a $10K prize with a $500 fee to $5M prize with a $50K fee.

I want others to be aware of this group and avoid providing private information and fees, which I unfortunately did upon the encouragement of my fake friend's FB message. I only realized too late that my friend's FB had been hacked.

Initial means of contact Not applicable

I unfortunately ended up giving my personal info to them email, cell phone, name, address, birthday I think. Ever since I've been getting spamed with jobs I never applied for, Geico Comercial emails. I unsubscribed from there emails and ignored the other emails marked as spam but I'm still worried that they have all this info and what they can do with it, I wish I would have researched them before giving out my personal info I hate how they come up on google when your looking for housing help or financial help thyre site should be taken down and they should be sued and in jail [censored] you ahr! I hope you all get the worst karma! Anyone know what they can do with the info I provided above?

I've been in contact with attorney Bill McDonald since Monday, November 23rd. We were working on getting me a grant for $100,000. Initially he texted me and requested that I make a $650 Cash app payment to $Severt. I didn't have the money right then so we opted for the next day. He then texted me and said that they were having problems with the Cash app network and requested that I purchase Google Play cards for $650. I only had $450 so I did that by purchasing 3 cards (2 for $200 and 1 for $50). He asked that I take a picture of the cards and scratch the bar code on the back and send it via text one by one. i did that. He then requested the receipts. I took a picture and sent the receipt. He asked that hold onto the cards while management was verifying the cards. I did. I purchased a One Vanilla card on Wednesday November 25th to complete the Delivery fee request of $650. I purchased a $200 One Vanilla card. He asked that I take the card out and send a picture of the front and back. I did that. He asked for the receipt again and I texted a picture of the receipt. The cards were confirmed for the Delivery fee. He asked that I hold onto the cards to confirm payment. I did. I asked what was next and he said that the FedEx delivery man was moving to my doorstep, but no one showed. They didn't call either (I stay in a secured bldg). The next day I informed Bill that I had stayed up all night and no one had showed or called. I asked that he summon the FedEx driver again. Bill then texted me and said that the Orange County Sheriff were requiring that a $2500 tax be paid on the delivery, before it could be delivered. I told him that I didn't have the money, but could pay it once the delivery was made. He texted me and said that the tax had to be paid before the sheriff office would release the funds to FedEx. I once again stated that I didn't have $2500 and could not get it. Bill then stated he submit his ID along with a $1500 payment. I told him I didn't have it yet, but could come up with it on Tuesday December 1st. He asked that I got back with him on Tuesday with the $1500 and my money would not be delayed. I asked which Orange County, and he said Louisville Kentucky. On Tuesday December 1st I went to Walart to purchase the cards for $1500 but a limitation of $500 had been placed on my debit card by my bank. I was only able to purchase 1 card for $500 I had to have the limitation the next day (Wednesday December 2nd). I then went back to Walmart and purchased the other 2 One Vanilla cards totaling $1000. I took pictures of the front and back and texted the to ill. There were problems with the text delivery this time so he asked me to email the pictures and receipt to: [email protected]. I did this and Bill confirmed receipt of the One Vanilla pictures and receipt. Bill then stated that he would get back with me as soon as he heard from the OCS department, and that my grant money would be on it's way back to FedEx and that the delivery would be made as soon as possible. I waited all night but nothing happened. The next day (Thursday December 3rd) Bill texted me and stated that my delivery document was ready and my money was ready for delivery but a security stamp and security escort fee of $5000 had to be paid before delivery. I told Bill I didn't have any more money and couldn't get any. Bill stated that the FedEx delivery couldn't make the delivery without maximum security. I sent Bill a picture of my eviction notice since I had used my rent money for the fees and taxes. Bill then stated that the stamp and security fee must be paid before grant could be delivered. He then sent me pictures of money stacks which I told him were not working. I told him that I was all messed up and requested that the transaction be cancelled. Bill only said that the payment had to be made. I reiterated that I was about to be evicted and needed the grant delivery now. Bill then stated that I try to get the money within 7 days and they would increase my grant to $150,000. I told him that I couldn't come up with any more money period. I once again requested that the transaction be cancelled and that I had already met his requirements. I told him that he keeps on adding fees/taxes and that this was a scam. I also asked him to please help, because I really needed the money I later called One Vanilla and they informed me that the One Vanilla cards had been redeemed at Macys, Dillard, Nortsrom and I started a dispute case with them. Bill is no longer responding.

I was contacted by a Sarah on Facebook. She said they would make payments on my credit card, I would get to keep 10% then buy gift cards for them to sell online for the cash. I did try to get a deposit on 1 credit card. The payments were not accepted. Never seemed have enough money in the account. I will be closing the credit card account to get a new card number.

They asked me to choose an amount of grant money I wanted from a list. next to each amount there is a fee list also. Depending on the amount the fee is determined. Example: If you choose to receive $80,000.00 and few of $850.00 would be attached to it. If I chose $100,000.00 a few of $1,000.00 would be attached. You send them the fee money through cash app.
