Received a call from 202-657-5195 saying I had received a grant, chosen by the Treasurer's Department. They gave me a confirmation number and told me to call another number (202-470-0827). The individual then wanted me to give banking information to receive the money. I denied this and they said they had an option for a wire through Western Union. He explained that they needed $250 to register my name and then they would send the funds. Once I heard this, I told him I would report the call and hung up.
