Solution

No U.S. Government Grant Making Agency will make phone calls, email or send letters to solicit money or personal banking information from any potential Grant recipient. 

If you have given out personal information to a third party and feel you may be a victim of fraud please contact the Office of Inspector General (OIG). You may contact the OIG hotline by using the following information:

- Phone:  1-800-HHS-TIPS (1-800-447-8477)
- Fax:  1-800-223-8164 (faxed complaints require a cover sheet either in the form of a letter or a form located on our website)
- TTY:  1-800-377-4950
- Email:  hhstips@oig.hhs.gov
