Government Grant Scam

28-May-2019

Scam Phone Number 12025256066, Caller said I had been given a 'Government Grant' of $9,400.00.

Got a call from someone who didn't sound "adequately" American! Said I have won a $9,400.00 grant and he would deposit the money in my checking account within 30 minutes.

I needed to get a $250 voucher to pay for "Federal Transfer Fee" (!) . He told me to go to the nearest store and wait for his instructions! I told him I have heard of this scam and the call is being recorded! SNAP! he was gone!

The calls offering US Govt. Grant are a scam.

It would be quite easy to figure out the fact that the call is nothing but scam, if we could ask the caller a few simple questions.

‘Which Govt office is releasing the Grant?’, ‘Where is it located?’, ‘I would rather accept the loan by check from the office directly’, ‘Where are you located?’, ‘Why do you sound like someone from abroad, maybe from India or Pakistan?!’

The scammers will not have plain answers that we expect them to provide and would beat around the bush. Grill them further on location of office and landmarks nearby, the caller will be at the sea!

There are no fees associated with applying or receiving a Government Grant. US Government Grant is not available to individuals for any personal use!! Its only rarely that individual grants are given and only for specific approved purposes like social work.

(No grant is available for funding your education or for any personal use. If someone calls and offers US Government Grant it’s a SCAM)

More Info: www .grants.gov/web/grants/support/general-support/grant-fraud.html

Every business that need a grant need to apply at :
www . grants.gov/applicants/apply-for-grants.html

There is a lengthy evaluation process and the applicant is given a login id to access and track status of his application.

Govt. departments will never call someone and inform that a grant has been approved.

If you have NOT submitted an application for a government grant and someone claims you have been awarded one, it’s a scam. Grant money is not given over the phone for a fee.

If you have submitted an application for a government grant and someone claims you have been awarded one, it’s still a scam.

You will be informed of your award by a letter which you will receive by mail. You will also be able to see the Award Status at: www .grants.gov/web/grants/applicants/track-my-application.html
