Other Info:
I can't believe I did not list this grant scampany before; it is one of the major players. I thought I had listed it, but did not. Instead I only listed related site by same company: grantfundingexpress.com. The traffic spike in the early months of 2009 is very significant:
If I make a calculation like I did before, taking 900.000 visitor with a 3.5% conversion rate, this web site alone generated a total of (31.500 victims) * ($108.85 in fees) = US$ 3,428,775 for our friends from Laramie County, Wyoming.
That is close to three-and-a-half-MILLION dollars. The largest 'revenue' from a grant scampany I've seen since starting this list.
Once again, FTC TAKE NOTE

I cancelled my "membership" in Feburary. In April, they hit me with three charges of $74.95 in less than a week. I called and was told teh money would be creditted back to my account within a few days. It wasn't, so I turned them over to my bank to deal with. I have also filed a report with the BBB.
I applied to GRANT WRITING CO,.I paid the 3.95 s&h but was told they were having more disc made. After 3 weeks, I called the number I had and they said they would refund my 3,95, which they did. I calld my credit card company to chec and sure enough the card had been credited. Belive it or not. I got the disc in the mail 2 days later. I have not been billed again for anything from this company.
This company is a scam!!! I never got my cd and after I was told I was going to get a refund, I was never given a refund. Months later they charged me 29.99 after I received an email saying that I would no longer be charged. I still haven't gotten my refund. I am going to dispute it with my bank.
I cancel my membership with-in 6 days after I had ordered the 3.95 Cd. It came in late. I recalled confirming my cancellation and it was confirmed in the beginning of March 09. 3/20/09 they charged my credit card $74.95. I call them ASAP and confirmed that I had cancelled my subscription in time and that no charges should have been made to my account. They agreed and apologized and said they would refund the $74.95 but it could take up to 30 days. Then on April 20th they charged my credit card again with an unauthorized charge of $74.95 again. I called ASAP and got the same apologizes and they said they would refund both $74.95 charges with-in 30 days, again. I cancel my credit card immediately. And have not seen the refund yet and now the phone # I have is out of commission. There should be criminal charges filled against this company for fraud.
