Site Info:

Domain name: grant-funding.org

Related sites: unknown

Type: Affiliate landing page leading to grant scam sites.

Specifically, they link to "Government Grant Solutions" (https://grantsearch.securemediabox.com/?file=index_v2.html), "Grant Funding Review" (https://grantsearch.securemediabox.com/?file=index_v4.html) - These two are both pages by the same scammer ($69.95 + 'bonus' $29.95 recurring monthly fees in fine print). They also link to a third site which I will not mention here since that third site clearly states to be selling a directory+info for a one time fee of $29.95.

Whois information: private registration, but here.


Other Info:

This appears to be a 'large player' in the grant scammer-affiliate arena. I found this site via a search on search.live.com where this guy was advertising in a premium position (top):


This guy runs a 'good' example of a 'it's a scam, but buy it anyway' site - his two 'top picks' are both the same grant scam site. His traffic according to compete.com is pretty staggering:


Assuming that most of this traffic is probably not organic traffic but PPC Ad generated, it is safe to say that selling grant scams pays off.

To add insult to injury, they placed a 'Paypal Donate' button on their site, to 'help keeping the site be 100% free!'. Yeah it must be real hard to keep a 1 page site 100% free, not? Or do they mean they need folks to pay for the TENS OF THOUSANDS of dollars they spend on PPC marketing?! The only reason that Paypal donate button is there is to make things look more legit. Pathetic, really, but I guess it works from a reality distortion perspective.
