Advantage America ripoff conned me to believing I would get $12,500. Winter Park Florida

This man with a heavy foreign accent, name, Shane Watson, said we were recpients of $12,500 grant from the US Federal Grants Dept. of the US Government. The name of the company is Advantage America in Winter Park, FL. He then gave me the website. After listening to him, and he asking me for my bank name and account # so he could deposit $500 tomorrow and the rest of the grant in 5 days, I looked up the website and proceeded to tell him:

You didn't tell me about the $49 you are taking out. He had an answer for that. Then I read further about the scams and asked him about the $299. which he then explained.

I asked him to call me back tomorrow and I could give him an account number and he said he didn't have time. They had 6,000 families to call and give this money to.

If it hadn't been for the scam reports and his website, many people would have been in trouble by giving personal info.

At any rate, I didn't give him any personal info other than my name, and apparently he has a phone number.

So thanks to all you people for reporting these guys. It sure saved me a lot of trouble, and money too.
