This company is a legal scam. I ordered a free cd and only had to pay $1.98 for shipping. Somewhere hidden in the terms apparently they state they will charge you $69.95 if you don't cancel in a certain time frame. When you try to call them you get a voice mail by from someone who barely speaks english. I don't expect a call back and I will probably be out the 70.00 bucks. I have learned a lesson though. I will never order off of sites like that again. File the claim with your bank and cancel your credit/debit card and order a new one. I wouldn't be surprised if outfits like this sell your info.

i was also a victim of this internet scam, i was told i would only be charged the 1.98 shipping, and then pulled out almost 70.00 from my checking account, people like this belong in jail, times are hard enough without people stealing from us. Please stop these scams.

I was sold a $1.98 cd and was charged $69.95 by Grant Funding Search, I am disputing the charge. When I called to cancel, I was told about the 7 day trial and charge and told I would have to go to their web site to know this. All I did was order a cd, not join their service. I never went on their site, I was just waiting for the cd which showed up 7 days after I discovered I had been falsely charged.

Unauthorized charge. Same scenerio as I am reading about. Authorized $1.98 for a CD, I don't even have CD yet and $69.95 wad debited from my checking account. I spoke with this company today with no satisfaction.
I am not going to leave this alone, especially now that I see so many people have been robbed like me. Looking for grants and this co. took $ from some who did not have it.

I just called these people three times and the first time I was disconnected.
I believe I got the same lady (Dominique) who says they are having technical difficulties and to try back in an hour. She asked this time for my phone number and says that she will send me an email showing my cancellation and if I don't get it to call back in an hour. So then I asked for a supervisor and she tells me they are working on the issue. I asked for a name and she gave me Lisa Reyes. I will try calling back to see what happens next.

[protected] is the number I called.

its called being lazy and not doing the research !

If you want info on Government grants - YOU GO TO THE GOVERNMENT - ITS FREE! Federal Trade Commission Website

this scam works because everyone takes the dumb route and pays for information already available for free.

I to have been taken in by "Grant Funding Research". I paid $1.98 for a CD (which I haven't received yet) and they have taken $69.95 out of my account. I thought I would have a period of time to look over the CD before I could decide if I wanted to continue or not. They do not give you that chance, they probably haven't even sent the CD yet. I was able to sign in to the WEB site, but couldn't figure out how to use it, so I signed up for their "webinar". I missed the night I was suppose to watch it because I was sick, so I signed up for the next time which is suppose to be tonight. I received my bank statement today where I found out about the $69.95 withdrawal, I was so mad I canceled the whole thing. I would like very much to get my money back if I can.

I also got charged money for something I did not agree to. I was charged $73.07 for a CD and to be able to view a website! I have contacted the Attorney General and also the BBB, I have disputed these charges and I think you all should do the same. I am also considering contacting an attorney! I will not let this go until I get my money back! ANYONE THINKING ABOUT USING THIS COMPANY SHOULD RECONSIDER! THEY ARE A BUNCH OF CONS!
