Grants360

SCAM SCAM SCAM... do not fall for the false advertising and lack of disclosure that this is really a temporary 24 hour membership... that if you fail to cancel they will charge you $57.00 and then only agree to refund $41.00 of YOUR $$$... trying to fight them is futile... if you agree you will pay for absolutely NOTHING... kiss your $$$ goodbye while they get rich off of suckers like me!

Agreed, took what I thought would be a quick look and found there are many, many of these. Different sites and companies, same bull. Kevin Trudeau's* "Free Money" and "Debt Cures" book, widely infomercialized on American TV, has opened the flood gates to people who charge you money for telling you they know how you can make money.

All the government grant information can be found, surprisingly enough, at (free) government websites, but the myth that an ordinary private person can rake in thousands really is a myth.

Broadly speaking, grants are most often available to organizations, companies, institutions and so on, are so complex and time-consuming to apply for that applicants often have to employ professional grant application writers, and require that the applicant fulfills many requirements in order to avoid having to pay it all back.

This is yet another example of people being distracted by get-rich-quick schemes instead of going to the right place for their information. These sites prey on those who don't know how to search efficiently on the web, and/or are new enough to it all not to realize how many tricksters are out there and how "authentic" their web sites look.

This from grants.gov, the site you should go to for government grants information given that (a) it's about grants and (b) it's published by the government:

"We have all seen them; late night infomercials, websites, and reference guides, advertising "millions in free money" Don't believe the hype! Although there are many grants on Grants.gov, few of them are available to individuals and ***none of them are available for personal financial assistance.***" (my emphasis)

Website is total scam. No product. Paid for the trail subscription with the $57.61 withdrawal if you did not cancel. Wanted the product. Immediately tried to log on and got a blank page with nothing. I was in the middle of moving so I thought I would go back on later. Month rolls by and there is a charge on my account of $57.61. Account information was boxed up. Looked up yesterday another charge. Got the number from my bank account statement and called grants360. Operator gave me user ID and Password. Nothing. Called talked to second operator, still nothing. Called back and given what they called as support. They gave me a website www.vaaop.com. It is LivePerson.com When you go into the website it a live chatroom for supposedly professional people. There is a disclaimer saying they are not responsible for the professional services provided. Then at the top it says your information is confidential and down further in the agreement it says your information may be sold. So it was not a support technical group for grants360 but some kind of information gathering website that sells the information. Needless to say I did not accept the terms of agreement. www.grants360 is a total ripoff. I had to call the bank and cancel my debit card in hopes of stopping this withdrawal and the other I will have to file a claim. Let's storm the phone numbers and ask the staff there to walk off their jobs to keep them from hurting other people. The numbers are *******612 and *******669. Here is my user name: usdr******* and password: Jc3U0K4b6uC3pA4S Go ahead and try! A big fat nothing. Take revenge my sweeties get these ******** off the internet!
