Same number same scam. Be careful. They actually called me from a local number first then gave me this number to call back 214-646-3255. I didn't call them back and reported them to scamming agencies.
Same spam call from HHS. I had three options to get my grant. I could pick it up in person at 200 Independence Ave SW, give her my bank acct info, or give her my credit/debit card info. I asked her the name of that building. She said, "I gave you the address." I said, "Yes, but what is the name of the building?" She hung up. BTW... it's the Hubert H Humphrey building.
Got a call from 315-262-5555. She said her name was Karen Smith and that she was calling from Health and Human Svcs. Said I was eligible for a grant in the amount of $7,400. Gave me a grant ID# and told me to call 214-646-3255 the Dept. Mgr. 200 Independence Ave, SW, Washington, DC 20201. When I did not call the number right away she called back on 1-888-382-1222 which came up Asotin Cnty Pbl. She asked how I intended to spend the money I told her on bills. I then told her I looked up the 214 number and that this was a scam. She insisted it was not until I started reading her the report I saw on this site. She hung up on me.
Same number, same scam! Told me I qualified for a government grant and when I insisted on more information before giving out my own the caller hung up on me.
