Advantage America
Ripoff possible class action suit if enough people have been involved

We received a phone call from a guy named Maveick Johnson. He said that he was with the government and that we had received a grant for $12,500. He said that the $500 would show up as a check the very next morning, and the $12,000 would be directly deposited into my bank account. My fiance and I have been applying for federal grants, so though I was suspicious I gave him the information he wanted with few questions.

I gave him my banking information, my personal information. When the money didn't show up I knew that it had been a fraud. Then today I received a letter from this company, Advantage America. This letter said that I had 7 days to cancel from the day I signed up with the company, which I assumed was the day they contacted me on the phone. It says " After your 7 day review unless you decide to cancel you will be billed $299.95 to your account on file after which you will be receiving your package so you can immediately get started on receiving your government grants and health care benefits."

I only received this letter about 3 weeks after I got the call. My bank account already has a foreign check number on it for $49.95. I haven't been billed for the $299.95 yet, but I can't change my account number because we are waiting on our income taxes to be deposited.

The letter I received stated information almost exactly oppisite that which they told me over the phone. It said that we have to apply for the grants and the 299.95 was for the guide.

I am going to call a lawyer friend tomorrow and see what he can do for us. Would anyone else be interested in a class action?
