They keep calling me and since I won't answer they won't even leave a voice mail. I just sent the to my "Rejected Number Option" on my phone.

They call and tell you, you've been chosen to receive federal grant money and all you have to do to receive it is have a credit, debit, or gift card available to take off $3.87 for their fee and then they will put the money on the card for you. It actually s****s out pretty believable at first and then you realize that they never tell you the company name, and they rarely let you ask any questions. They're all from a third world country with names like Kevin Peters or Austin Smith. Once cross checking the number and the website they gave us we realized it was a scam from the ***dreds of other reports stating that cards were charged another $29.99-$59.99 recurringly until the card was canceled. Definitely do not answer this number or if you do, **** up once you've heard the scam. Sometimes they're good for a laugh!

I answered the phone, the message said "Goodbye" The phone rang a few minutes later and said the call was being recorded. I told her that I was recording the call as well. I asked what it was in reference to she said "A personal business matter and that she needed me to verify my address." I told her that I was not going to verify my address and that I had no personal business with them. I have been being called several times a day since Sa****ay. These people are relentless as I have told them several times that I am on the National do not call registry. They just c****e numbers and MO and call a***n.
