I received a call on 12/07 from a man claiming he was from the Federal Goverment and that I have been approved for a Grant in the amount of $12,500. He told me about the fees, one for 49.95 and one for 299.95.
This mans name was Justin Cooper and he told me that I would not be charged the fees because I was already approved for the grant. When I did not receive the money in 48hrs like promised I called the company back and asked them why I did not receive the money.
I was told that I would be receiving a book on how to get a grant that cost $299.95 and that there was a processing fee of $29.95 and a membership fee of $19.95. I told him since the guy flat out lied to me on the phone I did not want this money taken out of my bank account. And he said since it was recorded there is nothing they can do about it and they do not offer refunds.
I hung up called my bank and put a stop payment to Advantage America so they cannot take any money out of my account. When I called back several times later and asked to speak with a manager of thier company they were conviently busy. So I am going to file this report and see what I can do to sue the pants off of this company.
