Still dealing with damage caused by super storm Sandy - but really close (an agency we have been working with already have a permit to demolish this trailer and replace it with a NEW [2015] one) but there is a slight glitch in funding due to the fact we have no clue what happened to the recipes for we we spent what Insurance and FEMA gave us on (I think they ended up in our storage with most of our stuff to clear this one out, so you could see all the damage) - so no we have not applied for any grants lately, but due to that glitch, I thought it was at least possible that agency had on our behalf, so did call it back - but left only my phone number on there voice mail (obviously they already had that) but something just didn't feel right.
Googled the name the used - call back numbers, and the number my caller ID said it came from.
There were two names one showed nothing - the other, a doctor in London. Call back numbers nothing. Originating number got me this:

Thanks for sharing. It's a shame with frauds kick people when they are already done.

Yah - and to top it off - it's not just a general phishing thing trying to catch anything the possible can - it's targeted - there message claims to be from the US department of Health and Human services, and clearly states:
"Our goal is to help those least able to help themselves."
Translation - We want to rip off the ones that have the least chance of recovering from it.
How NICE of them!

Thank you for sharing the news! While devastating, the news also gets spread to those in need who may also be targeted by these criminals. My heart goes out to all you.
