She told me she works for the U.S. Treasury of Grants. She asked for either my account number or card number in order to receive the grant. I asked her if this was a scam. She said "No Sir" This is not a scam, I work for the U.S Government. I went ahead and gave her my debt card information thinking it was legit. She then gave me a confirmation number of HO141. After She gave me a phone number 202-609-7027 to call and it was to talk to a gentlemen called Vayne Ruze. I called him right after I talked to Rosie. He told me in order to receive my grant I had to wire a donation of $100 to charity. I went ahead and went to Western Union and he walked me through the process of wiring the money to Delhi, India and the name was Vinod Jain.
