1st National Government Grants
Ripoff, phone scam, fraudulent billing, dishonest

I was contacted just a little while ago, July 30 from a lady with a very thick accent. She stated that my name was on a list in which the government had $12,500 grant money for me. For just a $29.95 processing fee, she will send the forms to fill out and state the reason I need money and then the $12,500 will be automatically placed in my bank account.

Since I didnt understand her very well and I was wary, I asked to speak to her supervisor. A man came on with the same accent and basically told me the same as she did. Also, I would get a trial membership for a plan and that I had 7 days to review it, if I didnt want it I could call and cancel it, but if not I will be charged $299.00.

All I needed to do was give them the # at the bottom of one of my checks. Even though my gut told me not to, I went ahead and gave it anyways. I am a single mother of 5 boys ages 1-11. I have recently had a very hard time financially and I have been praying for help. I really wanted to belive that this was the help I had been praying for.

Immedaitely after hanging up I went to the website they gave me and it was unavailable. So I did a google seacrch and was directed here. Now I feel so dumb.

I dont know what to do if they take out $299.00 out of my account. I cant even afford the $29.95. I will go talk to the bank Monday and see what I can do.

These people relly need to be stopped. I hear of scams all the time but I have never fallen for any until now. This is really gonna hurt me and I may even lose my house if they take my money b/c Im already behind in rent. If anyone has any info that can help me stop them from this, please let me know.
