I got a call from a woman who stated that she is with the Federal Grant dept in Washington, DC. Her name is Joyce Rogers. She stated that I had been awarded a grant for my tourism business and she knew all the details on my application I had submitted with the Federal Govt. She stated that I needed a proposal written for the grant & referred me to Cooper Financial Services in Tallahassee, Florida.
I called them & spoke to a Jeff O'Brian 850-254-0692. And like a fool I paid the $487 to a Rosa De Brett.
Well to make a long story short. I was never sent the proposal to sign & now they are not returning my phone calls. And Cooper Financial Services is also using the BBB to further their scam part in this elaborate scheme. The BBB shows that they have an A - rating.
On further investigation if you look up in the yellow or white pages in Tallahassee for Cooper Financial Svcs nothing comes up. Even the phone number draws a blank. Also this company is stating that you need to send the cashier's check to their accounting office in Miami, Florida: 2250 NW 114th Ave, Unit 1P, Miami, Fl 33172. I have no idea who belongs to that address but it definitely is not Cooper Financial Services.
For everyone's info if you look up the number 202-570-7295 or 202-559-6973 they are now coming up on the internet with people claiming that they received federal grants thru this guy Brian Seagal & Joyce Rogers. So now they are flooding the internet with bogus good reports on the fact that these two work for the Federal Grant dept and that grant money is being awarded.
Don't let them take you for $487 or any other amount they may come up with.
I'm hoping the BBB in Tallahassee can get my money back. I think these people have loaded a mirror image onto the BBBs website. I tried to file a complaint online & I kept getting kicked out. So I'm going to print & mail in my complaint.
So pissed that they would do this.
