Grant Funding Search review: Fraud 334

I thought the Federal Government had a agency that reviewed internet fraud, but, I guess I has wrong.Hey! Obama! Did you cut their budget so you could "BAIL OUT" those banks?:( Thanks for nothing! THANK YOU! guys I was about 2 seconds away from signing up. Something told me to check it out and I found this site...Thanks again! I'm unemployed also and I thought the same thing that I could afford $2.00
Is there any way we can start a petition?
I don't care that I didn't get scammed.(Thanks to you) I'm still disgusted that 7 months later that it's still going on.

I got screwed over too, has anyone been able to get the money back? I was told I needed to pay the charges $70, and they would cancel my account, I didn't even know I had a count. Something needs to be done. Please help.

These people are complete ###! I hope they ALL die a very painful and miserable death of some incurable desease. I got hosed just like all of you did. I'll be at the bank tomorrow disputing these charges.

Dear Dark Angel and Others,

Please go back and read my comments on page 10. Dark, you are right! All those old sayings, "You never get something for nothing, There's no free lunch in this world, If it sounds too good to be true, it is, " are all correct. But these criminals change the rules constantly to stay one step above the law. Many of us signed up before they even had the disclaimer on their site in fine print. So many people complained, they had to add it to their website.

Do you realize how much extra time and money the banks are spending simply to handle complaints and closing of customers' credit cards, etc., all the extra unnecessary work resulting from this scam!? How about all the phone calls? It's ridiculous.

If there is an upside to this, it's the lesson we're all being taught about reading every possible letter before signing up to receive anything. But my original point was these dirtbags didn't have that "monthly subscription info" on the ad when some of us sent for the cd. They added it later to cover their a**. If anyone ever hears of a class action suit, let me know. My signature will be the second from the top!

upon recieving my cd and order confirmation # I didn't relize I would be charged another 69.00 after the 7 day trial period which wasn't mention on the order conf.# e-mail it wasn't until I tried looking up there web site that I came across this complaint site and that I became aware of the scam, so I cancelled thank you people there full of BS

I am the latest victim of this so called company Grant Funding Search. Apparently I ordered a grant funding search cd, was charged $1.98 and it was delivered cracked. Totally cracked and no way usable. So, I called this number [protected] and spoke with a foreign lady who would not send me another cd without me paying for the shipping and handling again. I was livid. LIVID. I demanded to be refunded for the cd and that I would spend my own money to send the cracked one back to them. They said no. I said send me another one and I will not pay for s/h. They said no. I told them that what they were doing was wrong in treating the consumer in this way. They said they were 100% LEGITIMATE COMPANY, what a crock. They also charged me $3.73 for some ebook, and $3.77 for another ebook, and I still have yet to find where they are at. I asked for a full refund of all charges and they would not refund saying it was all in the Terms and Conditions. They also deducted from my checking account $69.95 and had not told me this until the end of the conversation when I told them that I was going to report them to as many appropriate agencies as I could find. They put me on hold and came back and said they were going to refund the $69.95 that I had no idea about until this phone call. I asked them when had this charge been deducted from my account and they said that it had just been processed today. What a sham of a company. They need to be shut down and prosecuted to the fullest extent possible. I hope some consumer advocate group reads this and does something about all of these stories, because a consumers there is only so much we can do. And, it feels so bad to know you've been taken by a company such as this one, to know that you as the consumer are really right and that nothing you say or do will get your money back. I hope someone takes this company down for good. I am going to contact Angies List, BBB, FBI, and anyone else that I am referred to.

Another victim of this scam! I too thought I was purchasing merely a CD with info on grant writing. However I was als billed $69.95 and $39.95 from another company (e grants) that I have no idea how they have gotten my bank information. Besides the fact that we never received the CD to begin with .Both my husband and I have called these two companies that were listed. One of the numbers was a fake number, and the other one we got through to with no avail. The phone police for the company are trained to just reiterate the same song and dance "terms and conditions" There does not appear to be any customer sevice protocol what so ever.When I realized that we were being charged this money to our account I cancelled the CD. The following two days we were billed $69.95 and $39.95 against our account. We notified our bank and changed the card number so that no further charges can be debited. Our bank said that they were going to investigate the fraud.
The name and address is as follows:

Grant Funding Search
2850 Horrizon Ridge Parkway
Henderson, Nevada

I am also going to notify other agencies with my complaints. We also asked who owned the company and we were told by the person on the phone that the information could not be disclosed. INTERESTING! The people involved in this scam prey off of people who are already struggling. Thats the lowest of the low

I WAS TOLD ONLY 1.99 AND THEN IT WAS 69.95 AND THEN 69.95. I HAVE WRITTEN THEM AND TOLD THEM I WAS GOING TO CALL THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU AND THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY WHERE I LIVE AND THE FBI, WHOM I KNOW SOMEONE WHOM WORKS THERE. AND ALSO THE CONSUMER AFFAIRS. HEY--I HAVE A BETTER IDEA, SOMEONE NEEDS TO CONTACT A LAWYER AND LETS SLAM THEM OUT OF HERE ONTO MARS. I DO NOT KNOW OF ONE, IF SOMEONE KNOWS LETS GET THE BOAT TO ROCKING AND ROLLING. I AM HERE.

I was also just scammed by this company. was put on hold 4 times to wait on supervisor finaly told them I was not going to go away and low and behold got a supervisor. But will not refund the money they just took out yesterday. If someone can tell me were to report them for fraud I would greatly appreciate it.

I had the same experience. I reported them to The Better Business Bureau at www.BBB.org, I just rcvd a letter from the BBB yesterday asking if I am satisfied w/ the company's response; Attatched was a letter from Grant Funding addressed to me stating that they are electing to refund my account, which was issued March 20, 2009 - Which I have NEVER received! I am returning my response to The BBB of Southern Nevada, 6040 s. Jones Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89118, Phone# [protected], Fax# [protected]. I suggest you also file a complaint ASAP. I did also try to go thru my bank at first to dispute the charge, but in the end, they were unable to help. I was unemployed at the time w/ only $45 in my account at the time and they took that and made me accrue overdraft charges! These people should be shut down

i order a cd from my search 4 grants and funding.com for 1.98shiping and handing from my check account that took 1.98 plus 69.00 dollar and gave my information to someone else and that went in to my account and took 30.00 dollar

I am so mad, I used a credit card that I hardly ever use or check, so I ended up being scammed for 500 dollars! I am soooo furious! I can´t get a hold of anyone there, and just don´t know what to do. Is there anyone who has filed any lawsuits against them, or gotten a hold of them to talk to them about anything? I have an address on the cd I bought, and it´s 2850 Horizon Ridge Parkway, Suite 200, Henderson, NV 89052. Has anyone gone there and seen if there´s a real office or not?
Please contact me by email on: cindie_unger@hotmail.com

these scammers are from a call center in the philippines! the name of the company is infinite variant outsourcing group. whenever complaints start filing up, they immediately change to another grants name and website. they even have a partner called JECC which is also in Manila.

I received nothing for the 1.98 and the 69.95 I didn't authorize. Now their trying to get me to pay 119.95 through a collections department called Natural Wellness Resources. [protected]. I tried to call Grant Funding Search and was put on hold, then was told to leave a message by a computer. I hung up.
