A gentle men contacted me by the name of Brent Goodman from this company (five star Financial) saying he was able to get me the grant money I needed. Wow, is this for real I thought. He said I needed to pay $449 in a bank check so they could do all the paper work neccessary. I was sent a user agreement and filled it out and faxed it right back to them with what the grant was going to be used for.
I sent them the money shortly after that (5-07) and right around that time once he got the money (he called) and told me if I hadn't heard from them in two weeks to call back. Well it was a holiday weekend and when the two weeks passed I called and all I got was music on the phone and then a disconnection notice. Then It hit me I got scammed. It was way to true and I fell for it.
I contacted The PO Down there and they know of this operation. I also filled a complaint with The Postal Inspectors and the FTC (PLease do this if you already haven't) They need a pattern so they will be stopped. They probably are already gone by know. I hope they get caught... Basically I got dupped $449 dollars for nothing to show for it. Please don't fall for this, they must be stopped.
