There is a scam going on that many of you may already know about but I feel that I should pass it along. I got a call from a guy saying he was from the Government Grant Information Center (go ahead, googleit) and that he had $8,000 dollars in grant money for me from the government (yeah right) and he needed to get my banking info. I was not stupid enough to give it to him, but he did call back four times using different names and the thing is he has a heavy accent so you know its the same idiot. He is currently wanted in three states and has over 400 complaints to the BBB in the last month. I shiver just thinking there might be someone out there just nieve enough fall for it.

Don't just shiver...Go into convulsions...Because I'm sure that half of those complaints, at least, are from people that actually fell for this load of crap...Maybe I should be a con-artist.........Nah...I'd get too wrapped-up in it...Nevermind...I'll stick to using people on an individual basis...
