G. F. Institute Fraudulent Claim of Pending Grant Funds

A Scam postal mail claims that $25, 000 in grant money is waiting for you to claim. A time limit of 36 hours is imposed, yet the letter has absolutely NO date or time anywhere in it.

Web searching returns NO such company. There are however numerous complaints and reports of the scam.

I shredded the letter, but now wish I had scanned it as evidence in case of prosecution.

I recomend that information from one of these envelopes be used to trace the outfit down, find out who they really are and bring charges of fraud, false advertising, mail fraud, and the like against them.

the (800) numbers can also be used to trace these people. Here is the one I recieved [protected]

Note: It no longer answers.

Thank you

G. F. Institute Access Government Funds

I got a letter from G.F. Institute regarding upcoming release of Government Funds on March 25. Estimate of funds pending $25, 000.00. Since I am seeking for government funds by online search using the government funding package. I did some research on G.F. Institute in Kansas City, Kansas via Google search since it has no address return in post card, I found out about G.F. Institue is a scam in Rip-off website as well as many customers reported that it is scam. Fortunately, I never call G.F. Institue, but I have strong advice that a federal law enforcement agency should force G.F. Institute to stop more scam letters to people and arrest
scan artists.

I am very skeptical about sending my money off to anyone. I have been searching seems like forever to get a grant. I look on the net and constantly see people who claim they have received a grant from someone. What I found out that half or maybe all those people are paid to make those comments. If money exist like the government says it does than why is it so damn hard for me to find it when I need the money like I need food, oxygen, and water to survive.

Yes, I, too, got my letter today. I called the number to ask what the catch was. They said there was no catch. So then I asked why there were SOOOOO many complaints about them being a scam and of course thy knew nothing about that and proceeded to ask me "Do you want to sign up or not?" I just had to antagonize "John" from India or somewhere why he didn't know what was happening with his company. He said the money was refundable. I hate companies that don't listen to their clients.

I, too got a post card. I thought you were not able to mail letters without a complete address in the return box. I should have known. Even the phone number is not available. You cannot find any info on them and to me in these economic times this is just beyond scam it is definitely criminal. The time and effort they spend on this - someone like me could do a good job with a legitamate company. They should be fully ashamed. Who are they anyway? I want to know.
