They stated that they have a federal grant award that I have been selected to receive by my phone number!
Just called me saying they were from the Federal Grant Service (which doesn't exist) and said I was selected to receive $9000 for being a good citizen. Didn't stay on long enough to figure out how they were going to try to get money out of me. Definitely a scam. Had a nasal-sounding voice that sounded like they were trying to hide an accent.
Called my business phone and left no msg. In checking the Internet using this number-strong indication of a Scam.
