I was contacted by a friend on messenger that he had gotten a federal grant free of charge. Later was contacted by a man claiming to be a federal agent saying I could get a federal grant by contacting a certain phone number to send his a message that I wanted to apply for a federal grant. The agent then told me I was accepted for the grant. After sending them $500 to an person named Brenda Franklin in Salis Mississippi I was told that I had to pay $20000 to the IRS but it was supposed to be sent to thee same address. I didn't have that kind of money so my friend offered to send it for me out of his money. After borrowing $900 and sending it still no money. Always one excuse after the other. So trusting my friend I sent another $900 thru western union to the same per. Still no money another excuse. Then I called the ScamPulse.com and was told that it may not have been my friend that contacted me. I tried calling him and no answer so asked him to call me. When I answered the phone I knew it wasn't him. They had been using his messenger to contact me all along and he had not sent them any money it was all a scam to get what they could. A supposed lawyer called me from phone number 4243275209 and assured me the scam was legitimate and to send the money. I called the ScamPulse.com and was informed of thee scam and how to report it. Please if anyone claiming to be a friend on messenger asks you to apply for a federal grant report it immediately. Call that friend and make sure it is actually them. I am now out of most of my social security check due to the fact they used a true friend. They are scammers.

I was told that I was chosen to receive a grant for $14,566. The guy told me I needed to put $350 on a Google card for 5 minutes. After the initial 5 minutes, the grant money would be put on the card. He said that Google was providing the money to the government to make the grant possible.

My friends Facebook account was hacked. I got an Instant Messenger. My friend's message was that God was good, and he was blessed, he got grant money that he didn't have to repay. He told me to call a lawyer, James Scott, offering me a government grant, of $30,000.00. He said he would send me something by FedEx. When I called the number 509-600-0216 nobody answered.

I did not go to Western Union because you thought it was a scam.

They said they are from government grant department and that my name was chosen from a survey they did to receive 9000.00. They wanted me to go to Wal-Mart and send 200.00 registration fee, which they say i will get back with the grant money. They asked for a credit card number so they could put the grant money on it. They said they are registered with the bbb, so i called and its a scam. I didn't send them any money, but they keep calling from a private number.

I received a text message from a good friend of mine saying that she had received $85,000 to help pay for bills, etc and that all I need to do is call this number back and I can receive the same amount. I did not call the number back as I know it'll be someone trying to get me to send them money.

I received a phone call from a man saying I got a $9,500 grant. Asked me to go to Rite Aid. I had to pay a certification fee. She said the money was coming from New York. Give them the code on the back. They wanted me to call from the parking lot. I spoke to a man and woman, both sounded like Arabic, Indian or Asian. They asked me my age. They asked what I would use the money for. They told me not to use the money for illegal purposes, like drugs.

We received a phone call from a Glen Roger (ID 7618W) informing us that we have a grant for $14,563 from the Dept of Material Institute of health.

We discussed with Mr Roger what was required to receive the grant and he said we needed to purchase a Google play card for $100.00(2 $50.00 cards)

which we did and relayed the numbers to him to set up our ID.

After about twenty minutes he said he needed another card for $100.00 (2 $50.00 cards) more to setup the account, again we complied.

Then he called and said that everything was set and we were to call the bank (Federal Reserve Bank of N.Y) and gave us the phone number that is 347-871-0255 and spoke to a James Wright, after another 30 minutes we were told that there was a problem with the software and they needed $675.00 more because the codes(75328491 & 92131995) given will not work.

After a heated discussion we canceled and hung up.

I received a call today from 360-339-7486, x. 307, Michael. He knew my town. He said the government was rewarding consumers who paid their bills. He said I would be eligible for a $9000 grant. He told me to go to Western Union at Walmart. He never mentioned any fees. When I got to Walmart, I called him back. That's when he said I would have to Western Union them $200.He told me to tell Wells Fargo that I needed a security card. I said I don't have $200, and you didn't it. So he said I could call him back with my ID number rm242 when I get my $200. He had a foreign accent.

This man, Daniel, is telling my husband he will give him $9,200 in Grant Money through the Federal Bank in NY. He then says there is a fee needed. My husband has given him over a thousand dollars in fees involving credit cards he buys and gives him the numbers off the cards. My husband believes he will get the money deposited today! My husband has been scammed before, a year or so ago, in the same way, but does not remember. I tried to stop him while talking to this Daniel, first a woman who then turned it over to Daniel, and the man told him to go to his car to get away from me. I could not get the phone number from his phone, but will try to today.
