scam
I too received one of these checks made out for $949.22. I was suppose to return a 4.045% commission to receive "the big check" of $9, 050.78. At first thought wow! Is this from one of the grants that I applied for? Reading the portion about sending in a commission to receive yet more money did not sit well with me. This is from the same lady Linda Spaulding that everyone else has complained about. I am so glad I checked this is out online which brought me here. This is so bad. In times like these when people are struggling to make ends meat and here you have someone that is willing to put you out on the street and loose yet more money. How do these people sleep at night? Please let your friends and family know that if they get anything like this in the mail to report it and not cash it. We need to spread the word.
The envelope was post marked from Santa Clarita, CA.

check scam
My wife received one of these scam checks in the mail for 958.22. The attached letter sent by a "Linda Spaulding" promised that my wife had been selected to receive a $10, 000 cash grant. This "Linda Spaulding" claims to be at the "Green Dot Grant Program" After checking around and doing some investigating online and finding this site. It is clear this is a BIG FAT SCAM. BE WARNED YOU ARE NOT GOING TO GET A GRANT OF ANY KIND THAT YOU DID NOT PROPERLY APPLY FOR!
The old saying "If it sounds to good to be true it probably is" was right in this case. What burns me is there are a lot of folks my wife and I included that could actually use money like this, and by the grace of God we did not get burned. DONT BE A VICTIM. The letter and check LOOK and SOUND legit, but it is a SCAM.

This is the second check I have received in 2 years and the first time I got lucky. I happened to stop a police officer and asked him if the check was legit and he told me if I went to the bank to cash it I could possibly be arrested for trying to cash a bad check. Everyone please beware, right now I believe we are all seeing or experiencing hard times! These checks always come when money is very short, but trust in God and he will help you out of any bad situation.
they are a scam/rip off
I purchased a Green Dot prepaid credit card over a year ago, and has never been able to use it, because the company always indicate that it is declined to any store, hotel, etc. and the customer is never able to speak with a representative to handle the problem. You are either placed on hold indefinitely or no one is available. It has been over a year now, and the money I placed on the card(s) has now been eaten up by their "service fees", even though I never used them! I called to cancel the card(s) and a non-english speaking man had the audacity to tell me that the cards has an "over-draft" charge on them, for their monthly service fees! Please expose this and other scams like it!
Thank-you.

fraudulent check
I received a check from US Bank but issued from the Greendot Grant Program. It was in the amount of $957.71 and I was informed that I had been selected to receive a $10, 000 grant and that after I gave Linda Spaulding her check for $403.00 for her commission for finding me this grant that I would receive the second check with the rest of the money ($9, 042.29). I immediately googled the Greendot grant program and this is what I found. So we called Moneygram which is who the check is done by and the lady informed us that they stopped making checks for US Bank over a year ago. So this is definitely a scam. Please beware. Trust me I was tempted but had to do the research first. The money would have been wonderful, to be able to pay off bills and be able to get the larger car we need since we are expecting our third child and our other two children are still in car seats. I hope this helps someone.

can't get my card verified
i bought a green dot prepaid visa card from wal mart today, it was 3.95 for the card, and i put 50 dollars on the card. when we called to activate it, the lady said that she couldn't verify the information. i needed the card immediately, and i asked why she couldn't verify it. she couldn't give me a reason. and why do they ask for your ssn#? there is no credit check, its a cash only deal. they said that they'd mail out a check, but i don't understand all this stuff about them needing all this information. we'll see if i actually get the check or not.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
Let me explain to you, first of all when you purchase ANY greendot prepaid card it is a temporary card and you cannot use the card until verification of who you are is given. This is for your protection and u can do that by going to there website or calling the # on the back of the card. Always get online and research before purchasing any credit or debit cards the fine print is important. I have a green dot Visa and it has been great of course I don't use it on everything I see in the store. You have to be money smart about any kind of use with a credit or debit card period. I hope this helps. The other thing is with a temporary card you can only use it on merchandise that doesn't require a pin# another fine print you probaly did not read. If you go online you can read their fees and get all the disclosures best of luck next time.

I received a check by the same people as listed in the above complaint as listed by Marilyn Ritchie, a broker with GREENDOT Aid Plan issued in Nov of 2009. The check was for 979.45. I thought it was bogus and laid it aside. Things have gotten worse and I cashed it today 2/2/10. loaded the card and am running into fraud alerts. Will talk to the bank and not spend the money until I get a clearance that it isn't bad. Will follow up and let you know what happens.

lost funds
I purchased two $500 Money Pak cards for Green Dot on August 10, 2009. One at 4:13 PM and one at 4:15 PM. They were purchased at a local Walgreens store. The clerk tried to load the total of $1000 onto one of the Money Pak cards, but the computer rejected the second purchase. I walked over to the shelf and picked up another Money Pak card. This one did not...

I checked my post office box today for the first time in a month. Been to busy running to hospital over my grandson who was recently diagnosed with Lymphblastic Lymphoma Luekemia. Today I find a check from the one and only Linda Spaulding. At first you think, holy cow...finally a break. Good thing I came to my senses and went online to verify. I went to the Better Business Bureau website and found nothing, finally I typed in her name and poof ** here I find all of you. I can not thank you enough for sharing your personal ordeal. This saved me lots. I had decided that if I did not find any information online then I would take it to a seperate bank for verification, but like the one guy said, his wife did the same thing and found nothing. More of this scam needs to get out. With the economy in the state that it is in, I am sure there will be several people fall scam to her and this company; and end up worse than they started.
May God Bless and protect us.

stolen money
I bought the moneypak with the amount of $500 from green dot at a local walgreen for the first time on June 22, 2009 at 3:37 PM. On June 23, 2009, I tried to use this card to pay some bills but they said that all $500 was already withdraw into an account. I call their Lost & Stolen department to report right away and explain that I did not authorise this transation. They asked me to submit the original receipt for processing. I fax the receipt to them on the same day June 23, 2009 at 2:38 PM. And I even called 10 min later to make sure they received the fax and they verified that it was received. They instructed me to wait for two bussiness day. I called back after two days and they have not process the paper work and asked me to wait for another two business day. I called back four days later, they said that they will not process my claim any further due to the money was paid to a business and that was it. This is my first time using this kind of financial service and they are one of the largest company providing such product and service.
As I explain to Green Dot representative that I did not give any authorization nor provide pin for any business transactions. This money was stolen from me right after I bought the the card at local Walgreen or it may not even load into my card. If Green Dot can advise that the $500 was loaded to a "Partner Card belonging to another customer" then who is this customer. I want proof, name, and transaction receipt, etc. They should investigate further rather concluded that I "may have attempted to use the MoneyPak" after I told them that I did not activation the pin numbers. Since they are a big corporation, they can just say whatever they want to. Isn't that what their "Lost & Stolen" department for? Must I file the police report for this lost and stolen to get the service to pursue the investigation further with them? What kind of support is this for their product to the consumer? My claim should be good enough for them to find out who stole this money. I still want them to track this money down to whoever that they said from the partner card customer and refund my stolen money. My Houston police report case number is [protected] but they will not do anything unless a subpoena is served.

watch green dot is the one doing they act like they don't know call you r local police and see if you can press charges
I lost my funds to them. It was a tough experience as I almost lost all I have to them but am glad LF res cue• org was able to help me fight for my refunds.
I lost my fund to some scam platform but am glad I got my refund with the help of LF res cue• org they helped me rec over that which I lost.
How can I report them they just stole 300$ from me! I’m pissed
Before I bought Greendot gift card I was under the impression that I could reload it easily online and not have to pay 5 dollars fee to load it, nor the monthly fee
Hi: I am looking for a gift card for a family member which I can
1 Quickly load from a checking/banking/credit/paypal account
2 Cannot be overdrawn
3 Loading fees are at a minimum
4 No or little monthly charge
5 Useable at many ATMs at minimum fee.
6 Low or no interest rate
Do you have something like that?

I bought a greendot moneypak card to reload my greendot visa with 500 dollars to pay my rent. after i tried to scratch the backing off and the numbers went with it, i called the 1800 number and they said it would take 1 business day to return my funds...my rent is due today and the money is still not there...and the "customer service" rep hung up on me! now my rent will be short 500 dollars and i am NEVER late. smh...I WILL NEVER USE GREENDOT AGAIN!
Bought a moneypack at CVS - weird that they only accept cash for them.
Got home to add it to my paypal, the website refused to accept my (accurate, triple-checked) personal information. It's also fishy they ask for your SSN to accept a payment you've already made in cash.
After a few tries, the website finally decided it would not allow me to use MoneyPak anymore. Directing me to request a mailed cheque - I did not want a refund, so I waited till their call centre opened the next morning.
I decided to try it again before calling them, instead of the 'next' link forwarding me to the page where I enter personal information, it directs me to a *very similar* page requesting *very similar* personal information, which is pre-filled out (by saved form information in my browser). In my rush to try this before giving up and calling them, I click through, and find I have filed for a 7-10 day refund before I get my $200 back.
I call and ask them to correct this and help me get the MoneyPak to work, but they claim it is impossible - a request to speak to a supervisor results in my call being put on hold, during which I was dropped.
There are many other complaints about people using this business, and frankly, I have to wonder how much interest it generates keeping people's money based on manufactured issues for 7+ days at a time.
This is an appalling experience, and I would advise anyone to steer clear of MoneyPak forever.
Visa is messing with people's lively hood.This matter needs to be taken up with the Better Business Bureau immediately.Everyone who is having a problem with these cards can and should take their complaint to the BBB.
I have just purchased aVisa card the day after thanksgiving and already I have found out these cards and the people behind them are taking people for their money.Times are too hard these days and I for one will and won't be taken. I am sending a certified letter to the BBB and to the senator of my state to see what can be done to stop this from happening to anyone else.

Messing with the wrong person
I bought a reload card for my Green Dot.Com Visa Card for $48.00 to pay the rest of my bill, and once I put in my reload number to upload my money, it says that the card has already been used! So, I call their customer service line...(first day) they tell me just to wait a business day so they can investigate, so the next day I call the card no refund! I call the second time to the company...they tell me to fax my receipt, and it will take another business day to get my funds...on the third day I call still no funds...I call once again and they tell me to fax a copy of my reload card front and back and I will definitely will have my money the next business day (so the supervisor says) then I call the next day, and still NO FUNDS! I call and talk to the supervisor again and he says my case is closed! WTF! Really? This is horrible, money stilling business! Don't ever get one! I am just thankful I didn't put my whole paycheck on that card! I am pissed off! UGH!
Thank you so much for the previous reports about this scam. I am making a report to the FBI to see if they can do anything. I have been told before that if there is no monetary harm, they can't do anything. Seems like you have to be taken in to get any kind of help. A word to anyone who was taken in... contact your local FBI office immediately. Your bank is not your friend.

So you deposited a check you never asked for and didn't know what it was?
part of a scam
Do not use Green dot money paks to buy anything online. If a site is asking you to purchase anything with the green dot money pak it is a scam. This is not a secure money transfer!

The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
Let me count the failures.
1) couldnt buy GreenDot with creditcard at cvs. Had to use cash $104.95
2) couldnt register card
3) card said everywhere where visa/mc accepted LIE.
4) had to purchase card to read agreement.
5) first attempt to get to agent and not computer took 35 minutes.
6) Agent in Philipines and barely spoke English.
7) Agent didn't know company address, telephone until I asked to speak to supervisor.
8) Agent still didn't transfer to supervisor
9) Agent said please hold 1-2 minutes. Took nearly 14 minutes.
10) told 7-10 days to get my money back?
11) 14 days later still no money.
12) Agent transfered me to line that says nobody is available. Time is 2pm on Thursday. Call disconnects.
13) Supervisor says I have to wait for other department be back in Monday.
14) Now 18 days since requested refund. Supervisor discovers that address is incorrect. The dept that is never opened is not in right now. Supervisor promises a call back next day.
15) No call back.
16) Day 20. Supervisor is on her "rest day". No other supervisors in office.
17) Current useless turd on phone calls me by wrong name 10 times giving me generic excuses that everything is being settled
18) Turd doesnt know what the issue is.
20) Turd says they remember me calling yesterday. (I didn't)
21) Turd says supervisor will leave message to call me back. Tired of dealing with Turd.
22) Thank god. Turd didn't call but no call from supervisor either.
23) Find corporate phone number. Transfer to answering machine.
24) Day 28. Call corporate again get press correspondant. Get transfered to customer service in Guatemala. More turdiness.
25) Day 29. Call corporate again. Ask for COO. Get secretary she transfers me to that useless answering machine again.
26) Day 30. Still no money.
I wish that I'd had an idea about all this! I had no idea a bank could even cash a counterfeit check, let alone take 10 days so I believed it was cleared. I guess I thought none of this could happen to me, but here I sit, apparently not a Wal-Mart Secret Shopper, but from what I am reading, also $2, 000 in debt to a bank I was already tired of. I wish I'd been more careful. Please, anyone out there, if it seems too good to be true, it probably is. And I thought I always found everythng on this wonderful internet, which I do, I just wish I didn't think it wouldn't happen to me. I am really grateful to find others, at least I'm not alone. Thank you. Cathy
fraud /fake check
My husband recieved a check also in the mail for $935.50 last week July 10, 2009. The letter stated that it was some type of grant program ans to send back 10% of the money or he would be sent to collections. My husband cashed the check because he thought it was legit & he had already been looking into different grants and had filled out for some in recent months, so he thought it was ok. Now the bank is contacting him and with bad news about this matter. If anyone can help, how can he contact the proper people to take care of this matter and clear this up?. Please email at [protected]@yahoo.com

i got the same check of 980.25 in dec.16, 2009 an i want to the bank an they told me that the check was fake. i thought i could of gave my kids a christmas that they will love.
I ALSO GOT A CHECK FROM THE SO CALLED GRANT PROGRAM LOOKING FOR SOME MORE INFO I SAW YOUR STORY THE CHECK WILL BOUNCE BUT YOU SHOULD'NT HAVE TO PAY ANYTHING IF YOU TALK TO YOUR BANK UNLESS YOU SPENT IT BEFORE IT CLEARD I WAS JUST GOING TO THE CHECK CASHING STORE TO CASH MY 952.75 CHECK SO THIS WAY I WON'T HAVE MY BANK INVOLVED GOOD LUCK BILL.
not an official check
I received the check in the mail also, I actually took the check to US Bank and asked them if it could be cashed because I wasn't about to take it to my bank. I got caught up in another one of those scams before. Hopwever, US Bank said that they could not pull up the account number for the check. I took it to a place where they do money grams, because it also says at the bottom of the check, issued from moneygram payment systems, and money gram had no record of the transaction, nor would anyone else cash the check, please be aware of these things coming in the mail, especially with no return address on the envelope, or phone numbers on the checks.

I received a check for a grant that I didn't apply for. It was from someone named Linda Spaulding. She said that I received a grant for $10, 000.00. The check was for $959.85. After reading the complaints about this I figured how could I receive a grant that I didn't apply for?! Beware!
This company sent me a check for $956 that I needed to cash and then return a 4.023% commission or $402.50. Since the check was sort of fuzzy and someone was offering something for nothing I new it was a scam. I looked on this site and here it was. This site is very helpful.
My husband just received one of these checks in the mail today. We actually almost deposited it. I have contacted the proper authorities to resolve the issue. Thanks for this web site to protect innocent consumers.
Someone claiming to be from the GreenDot Grant Program is issuing checks asking customers to return at 10% commission and to deposit the check. There are numerous typographical errors as well as nonsensical explanations. The check has been verified fraudulent with KeyBank in Ohio.
PLEASE EVERYBODY RECIEVING ONE OF THESE CHECKS, CALL YOUR LOCAL FBI OFFICE AND TELL THEM YOU WANT TO REPORT A CRIME TO THE FINANCIAL CRIMES DIVISION YOU CAN GET YOUR LOCAL OFFICE NUMBER AT www.fbi.gov/homepage.htm ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE PAGE UNDER CONTACT US YOU WILL SEE A LINK THAT READS" YOUR LOCAL FBI OFFICE" CLICK THAT LINK AND IT WILL REDIRECT YOU TO A PAGE WITH A LIST OF OFFICES. I HOPE THIS WILL BE HELPFULL TO EVERYBODY.
I received the same check through Linda Spaulding. Was the check from People Currency Exchange. But my check was able to be cashed through the bank I deal with. Well, I have been applying for grants in the past so I thought it could have been someone getting back to me about it. I actually did every step that was listed. Now waiting to see what will happen to the money I sent back as Linda's commission using GreenDOT moneypak.
To me, it is crazy because in the letter she stated that you could be report to the credit if you cash the check without following the steps that was stated on the letter.
Hello can you tell me who I would contact about this? I already deposited the check and now am minus in my account for doing something stupid. However, I am going to college and thought it was from that and greendot was legitimate so stupid, stupid, stupid.
Most definately a scam
I got a check in the mail and it just seems to be too good to be true. I am researching to validity of this program. Not for sure yet I do know I am not cashing the check!
pending authorization
I purchased a Visa Green Dot shopping gift card and on june 28th, I purchased an item online. However, I canceled the order shortly after and when I checked my gift card it said that I only had 1 dollar, the purchase was 39.99. The company said that they didn't receive my funds so there was no money to return. I decided to wait a couple days to see if money was returned to my card but it still wasn't. It was placed into "Pending Authorization". I was wondering if anyone knows how long pending authorizations last and how long it will take for my money to be returned. I tried calling Visa green dot shopping. They claimed to have live customer service but when you call its only a machine and you're charged $0.50...

I have one of those checks. I went inside my bank, they made some calls and confirmed that the bank account was no goo, and they were writing bad checks. Don't do it!
Here's how it works.
they contact you in response to an add.
agree to pay more so that you can forward the remaining money to a person
in another location via MoneyGram, Western Union, etc..So that they can pick
up said product.
the problem is, the check won't clear, you'll have to pay back the bank EVERY CENT.
The scammers split the money, and wala...FREE MONEY.
Imagine if the did this 30 times a week!

I recieved a check for $975 telling me that I should send the commission back to them and I will recieve the rest of my $10, 000. Haven't recieved anything yet : (
Read full review of Green Dot and 21 commentsdisputed charges
I was on the internet and purchased a snowglobe. I only ordered one and they billed me for 3 due to their website misleading ordering page. I called the company immediately and I could not talk to them until the following day, because they were closed. However, I left a message, and called them back, and was reasured I would get my refund, and the order would only be for one. I then called Green Dot
and they refused to stop the hold on the two items I was billed extra for. They talked to me about how long it was going to take to straighten it out, so I called back the website for snowglobes and asked them to please enter the voided orders. I was told they had already done so. I then called back the green dot company and was given nothing but the run around. It is the 8th of June, and it started on the 2nd of June. My money is still being held by green dot.
I feel they have violated my right to dispute this order, but they refused to do anything! I need the money on my card to be taken off of hold immediately! Please help me! Dana Moschetti
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
green dot is a nightmare to deal with when disputing a charge. sent them the requested letter 12 days later i find another letter in my mail box requesting along with the same info from the first letter i had sent the password to my online account with them.
they also want me to prove i paid with my card. logically if the charge is posted to my account i would have to assume they debited it.
strange company all in all ill probably have to sue to get this resolved sigh.
I can't believe all you IDIOTS who are having problems with green dot as I have had a card that I reload every month at the Riteaid Pharmacy or Walmart in AL. and I have yet to have ANY problems with them Perhaps if you were to get your heads OUT of the sand you would realize that the PROBLEM lies with YOU and who you are dealing with in the beginning (initial retailers that issue the card or it could be you setting the card up on the internet) and QUIT trying to give a company a BAD NAME because YOU are TOO STUPID to know that you are a SMALL MINORITY (key word) hint hint of the people who are dealing with green dot that are having a problem. I had a bunch of unauthorized charges on my debit card from the bank twice and had to close my accounts with a BIG name bank and THEY were NO help to me at all. So quit complaining and DO something INSTEAD...
fraud activity
Someone asked how to reach a real person on this card. when they come on and ask english or spanish do not press anything. When it asks the nature of your account press 1, then press 2, enter card # then enter zip code. listen to automation and press 3. This company will not cooperate with you to return your money in an orderly fashion. They are not an american company tho the main office is out of California. There is no one in California to talk to. I have had several supervisors hang up on me. They told me my money would be available by monday and then changed it to Tuesday and then they will probably change that to Wednesday. My money disappeared and when I asked them for the Authorization Code to send it to the rightful company, the guy asked what is an authorization code. even the gas pump gives u an AC. To file a proper complaint, write Green Dot Visa, PO Box 1187, Monrovia, Ca, 91017.

PAID 9.95 TO GET GREEN DOT CARD. I LOADED 160.00 TO PAY A BILL IMMEDIATELY, THINKING THIS WOULD BE FAST. THAT COST ME 4.95, EACH TIME YOU PUT MONEY ON CARD. THEY STILL HAVE MY MONEY ON CARD. THEY HAVE NUMBER LISTED, NO PROMPT'S, FOR CUSTOMER SERVICE, EVERY THING ELSE . YOU CAN'T SPEAK TO ANY ONE. IT'S HORRIBLE. I CAN'T GET MONEY OFF TO PAY MY BILL. WHICH BY NOW, IS PAST DUE. SPENT 3 HOURS LAST NIGHT, NOW 1 HR TODAY ALREADY. STILL HAVEN'T SPOKE TO ANYONE . I WILL REPORT THIS COMPANY. IN THE MEAN TIME, THAT ALL THE MONEY I HAVE, SO VERY UPSET. CAROL

I got the same check and letter in the mail. I was almost about to go and cash this check at a local Walmart. I was not about to go to my own personal bank. This is so sad that someone will try and get over on people and we are barely making ends meet. I hope this person is caught and sent to jail for this.
