This morning I received a phone call from somebody who had an Indian accent and claimed that he was from the Government Department that issues grants. He claimed that I had been chosen to receive a Government Grant of between $5000 - $25,000. It sounded good but when I went online to check things out I discovered that it was somebody trying to scam me. The Government simply does not ring people up and offer grants.
I reported the phone call to Consumer Affairs. I did not give away my financial details and no money was lost.
I later went and bought a new filing folder for filing my business documents and a new USB stick.
The latest version of Celebrity Apprentice was on tv.
