I just got a call from this number. The caller said he was calling from the "United States Grants Department." I told him there was no such thing, and that my number is on the do not call list and he needed to take my phone number off his list and never call me again. He insisted that he was calling from a legitimate branch of the federal government and started into his spiel about that I had qualified for money. I again told him there is no such agency and he needed to take my phone number off his call list. He started talking loudly over me to continue with his spiel and to insist that he is calling from the United States Federal Government Grants Department. I hung up at this point and blocked the number through my phone provider.

I've never had a solicitor/scam that was so insistent on sticking with their spiel even after I tell them that my number is on the do not call list. Usually this will end the call.

I was shocked when he continued despite the fact that I made it clear that I knew he was not calling from a legitimate company/branch of government and that this call constituted a scam. Makes me think that these scammers are really bold and will go to greater lengths to scam people than many other scammers/solicitors will. Be smart and beware--don't be a sucker!!!
