I was called regarding this grant. I was unsure about doing it because it sounded iffy.

As I was speaking with a woman she was detailing me about money being taken out of my account. I still did not want to proceed and told this woman so. I told her I wanted to look further about this program and would call back when I was ready. The converstaion then ended and on November 17, 2006 I had $299 taken out of my account.

It took forever to get someone on the phone. Finally, I did and was able to talk to someone about a refund. They said it would take two weeks for me to get a package and in that package detailed what I needed to do. I received the package on Christmas Eve. Way longer than two weeks.

In the letter in the package stated to return the item within 3 business days for a refund of two hundered and something another charge for shipping when it only cost about six bucks. I shipped it back within three days and had priority mail with the confirmation delivery. It arrived there on the third of January 2007. The letter also stated that it would take 20 days to receive the check and YESTERDAY made 20 days and guess what NO CHECK!!

I'm not a wealthy person and all and live check to check. My son will be celebrating his birthday in February and I was going to use that check for birthday supplies. Looks like that won't happen. These people need to be brought down and we deserve OUR money.

i was contacted by mail. i called to find out info on a government grant. they asked for basic info and when the next woman talked to me she said i qualified for a home improvement,energy conservation,and education loan. she said they charge a one time fee of $299.97. she then asked how i would be paying. i said i would get a cashiers check and she said she needed a check so that the bank could verify who i was. i did not give any info on my checking account and told her i would have to get back to her at a later date. something made me hesitate about giving anymore info and decided to check on the company. i came across this site then. same address as listed on your site. i would like to see if i could find more on this company.

subject Flp post card

I just received a similar post card addressed to my husband saying, "You did not pick up!" Parcel# ####-x (hand written in) then "PLEASE CALL IMMEDIATELY!" @ 1-888-289-9091 (stamped in) then the days and hours to call. I called the number getting a busy signal several times then incessant ringing before being cut off. It was weird, so I looked up the return address and found out it was a fraud/scam.

I am writing in to alert others as well to this. I know never to send money without finding out all the details, and I never give private info over the phone unless I know who I am giving it to. I hope others are also aware to be on the defensive towards any kind of scam or fraudulent promotions by phone or by mail.
