Galaxy called me on 8/31/07 and claimed to be The Government Grant Company. They said I won a $3,500 grant which would be deposited into my bank account and they went into great detail how the grant money was to be spent. They tricked me out of my bank account information and began withrawing money out of my account.
On 9/26/07 they withdrew $19.95. On October 11, $29.95 & $39.95. On October 26, they tried to withdraw $19.95 but I closed my account and put a stop payment on the $19.95. So in total they got me for $89.85 and I had to close my bank account because of them.
I was in constant contact with them by phone and email during the whole time they were withdrawing money. I cancelled the account by email 3 times but they refused to give me a confirmation number for the cancellation. I also cancelled by phone 3 times. I did not open an account in the first place.
They laughed at me when I asked them about the grant money. They are operating an illegal grant scam and I was stupid enough to fall for it.
