I Have a Question

someone ive known for yrs gave me this email for this grant board, so i emailed them to check it out. when they asked for my info they asked me for my password and user name for facebook, i told them i didnt feel comfortable giving that out. then they sent me a list of grants and how much it would cost, it wasnt free like grants are supposed to be and theyre not cheap either, i told him i couldnt afford them, he said to go to my bank and take out a loan to give to them and when i get the grant i could use part of it to pay the bank back, i told them to forget the grants right now, im not doing all that, this all sounds fishy to me, are they trying to scam me?

Well the first tip it's a scam why would you pay to get a grant? it's unheard of pay someone to get a grant and even pay the grant issurer. And why did your so called friend need to know your personal Info? Maybe to fill things out in your name and a few months down the road the bank send a notice of loan payment passed due, I would change your passwords and put passwords on your accounts any accounts you may have that way if people call pretending to be you and the person they called asked for your password will they would not know that. Maybe check with the credit office to see if you have asked for any credit or loans that you are unaware of.
