I received a lite yellow postcard "URGENTGRAM" in the mail advertising a guaranteed grant for at least $5000 from Kensington Consulting Group. I called and they said that I would receive at least $5000 in grants. All I needed to do was give them: my bank account information, ss#, address so they could draft $299.97 plus $29.95 shipping and handling.
Well, they wasted no time deducting these amounts from my checking account. This was back in the early part of December.
I was sent a "portfolio" in the middle of January that asked random questions. Once I read and filled all the questions and other needed information I took the next step by returning it back to them so that they could see what all i was eligible for. I sent the finished information off by paying $11.82 by UPS to them on 01/26/06... It reached them and was singned by: "JOSE" on 01/30/06.
After checking with POSTNET.com by using my tracking number (UPS) I learned that the packet had reached Kensington Consulting I started to call them every other day... They would tell me that things were being processed, they would give me a call when everything went trough, id be sent something via e-mail... Still NOTHING
I called April 21st around lunch time and they said it would be to me trough mail on May 6th... I called May 06 and i was told it was "in holding"... I called May 7th and was told that it would be sent that folowing monday - tuesday... Still NOTHING... Called again on May 30th at 1:30 pm and was told to give it till the next day... Called back on May 31st after i checked the mail and recieved NOTHING...
Again here today its June 2 almost 6 months later. Still nothing! I called today. The 1st rep. I talked to said she would e-mail me the info i needed by 5:00 EST. As soon as i got off the phone with her i called right back! A guy gets on the phone and said that he would send it by e-mail at 5:30 "as soon as i get OFF of work mam'"... Here it is 7:45 pm EST and still NOTHING!
This is not right! People should not be allowed to do others this way! Esp. When it comes to money. Feelings. And personal information! Im going to call my bank and see if there is anything i can do at all to stop this from going any further than it already has! I hope its not to late!
