Default Grant Funding Search Scam

I was misled by a local tv broadcast stating a survey was done on
grovernment grant assitance programs!!
Well it must have been a bought advertisement instead of a survey,it
pointed out certain sies to steer away from but also recommened this
one highly.

grantfundingsearch.com


The informercial said these people only charged a shipping fee! So I
jumped on the band wagon a free government grant to never have to
repay and all you had do was order the cd explaing the how to !!


I gave them my credit card information to charge my account $1.98
shipping. After recieving the CD it was a disappointment it only told
you to be proper and ernest and use request letter that would not be
**** canned!!


Not what I was looking for at all,I wanted specifics maybe something
I
could simply sign and be considered since soo much research had gone
into the program being offered!!


$1.98 well I felt decieved yet it was a cheap lesson and I forgot
about it!! Three months later I recieve a statement from
grantfundingsearch that my account was charged this time for $69.95
which after a call was told that I was put on a 7 day trail if I was
unsatisisfied I was to cancle my subscription!


I had to give the phone to my wife as I was not easily adjusting to
the DOT HEAD on the other end!! When I returned from a cooldown walk


The wife told me That Not only did I get scamed for the CD$1.98



yet I was charged for a membership fee of $69.95! The fine print gave
me a time limit to deny the charges or else they assumed I was
wanting
to become a member of this Scam Organization!

How low will they go well not only had I not advised them via email
or
a written statement, that I would be charged on a regular basis..Who
knows how much or for how long!! I hope the FEDS does there job here
and bust the chops of this scam, However I'm afraid to think it is
most likely a FERDERALLY backed SCam opperation ORGANIZED CRIME
rides again
