I got a phone call from someone who said his name was Gary Blackburn ( Sounded Like He Was From India), thought that name was strange for someone from India!  After he said that I had 50k of FREE money waiting for me from the government, I asked to speak to a supervisor.  The Supervisor got on the phone he said his name was Alex Travis ( Sounded Like He Was From India as Well) thought wow such american names for people from India!  Anyway he said this was real and guarenteed money and that after I gave him my account information I will be so happy the next day when I get another phone call from someone else who will confirm the money has been sent.  I got the phone call the next day from someone who said her name was Jessica ( Agian Sounded Like She Was From India) the phone number that came up had a 770 area code but the name was " Pulse India " (Jessica) said that my bank would only accept 35k so I had to get the other 15k from Western Union before the other 35k could be sent to my account. She said that I had to pay a fee of $200 dollars then call her back once this has been done and she will release the funds etc.  I told her I never heard of anyone that could not wire any dollar amount to a person's account since I have a banking background, especially money coming from a government agency!

She got extremely deffensive and told me that if i don't want the money then just hang up the phone and see if I can get free money from somewhere else, she was ready to hang up on me, I told her "don't you hang up on me" if someone was from a government agency that would not be so unprofessional and deffensive when asked clarifying questions. I wasn't going to send any money.  Obviously I looked this company up on google to see what was out there and then I saw these reports. So thank you for saving me from making a very stupid mistake!!!!
