Grant Scams

Scammers try to trick you into sending them money. No legitimate federal government employee would ever call you and tell you that you qualify or have been approved for a grant for which you never applied.

HHS Tips to Recognize and Avoid Grant Scams

Who to Contact:
Fraud

Examples of whistleblower complaints, or fraud, waste, and abuse that should be reported include, but are not limited to, embezzlement, misuse, or misappropriation of grant funds or property, and false statements, whether by organizations or individuals.

Learn More about Federal Grants Requirements, Guidelines, and Resources

Supporting a Safe and Respectful Workplace
