After writing and constantly updating Is Working At Home The Next Gold rush Scam?  I thought I’d better fill you in on another scam I ran across recently The US Government Grant Scam.

There are no “charges” for real Government Grants

The government will never charge you a fee to process a grant, or any other application. Also the government would also never require you to provide vital financial information over the phone. Someone claiming they are going to give you money but first they need to charge you a one-time processing fee should raise a lot of red flags.

The US Government Grant Scam is much like the Google Work at Home Scam. The website entices you to apply for the ‘free’ CD. It claims that the only cost to you is the shipping and handling. You need to read the small print to get the real story. The ‘terms’ page let’s you know that what you are actually getting is a ‘trial’ into this scammy program. The day afteryou pay the shipping and handling your credit card will be billed an additional $57 dollars and viola your trail period is over.

Sounds so easy right? $2.00 for shipping & handling for the ‘free’ CD

The application process. Apparently you have to fill out an application to see if you qualify???  Why do they need your credit card information if you are only in the pre qualification process? And why do  you have to be pre-qualified to receive the free CD?

Now pay attention  Heres the clincher: FREE TRIAL? What free trial???

After your 1 day (ONE DAY) trial period it’s just $57.61 a month??? what??? all this for a FREE CD? HUH????

Oh and one more thing — Laws of the United Kingdon????

.You must read the small print… always!
