I additionally received a bogus check from Key Services at 211 Folsom Street, San Francisco, Ca. 94103., Lisa Proctor for $975.78. Seniors BEWARE. How the hell they got hold of my SS # is a mystery. Am very GLAD for this blog as a WARNING to anyone who may be ignorantly considering cashing the check. This is illegal and an obvious scam. The crooks get more creative every day. Look at the letter closely and observe the many misspelled words. Some foreign crook who is here in US illegally seeking to ruin worthy poor US citizens credit. DO not attempt to cash this phony check because it plainly says you credit will be forever ruined, and our credit reporting agency's here in US are another subject. they too are eager to ruin anyone's credit on a whim because they do not have checks and balances to verify the data.

My husband also received a check from Lisa Procter. I'm glad this web site is available. These people should be prosecuted. We will be turning it over to our bank or local police department.

I rec;d the same letter as madashellinindiana and totally agree.i don't get caught up in scam normally but this time i did due to the economy being the way it is, every body is looking for extra money therefore i didn't check her out uintil it was to late.and am now suffering the consequences of my non thinking actions.As far as i am concerned, everyone involved in scams should be tared and feathered.Or at least have their ### beat in public and everything they own taken away from them.

I also received an official check. This people should be prosecuted because there are people out here who really need this money and they scamming. I applied for this grant because I needed it and I'm glad I didn't cash it. I would probably be in prison..

I also received a check from Key Services Corp., 625 Broadway, San Diego, CA 92101, but in the amount of $948.78. There was also a letter from Hanna Robertson, a grant broker with the GREENDOT's Us Grant System attached to the check. She told me that she had acquired a $10, 000.00 cash financial aid grant for me. She said that they would be sending two checks. The first one was the one for $948.78, which I had just received, and the second one in the amount of $9, 052.00. I was told that I would get the second check after I had sent them a 5% commission on the total amount of the grant ($10, 000.00) which came out to be $500.00 after I had cashed or deposited the $500.00 check. I was also told to get a GREENDOT Moneypack and to upload the $500.00 to it. I was also told to fax to two different phone numbers as they were in the process of changing offices, which did not sound right to me. I was told that grant brokers are prohibited by law from debiting commissions for grants until grant money is accepted by clients. I had googled Hanna Robertson and found many complaints about her. I then googled Key Services Corp., and found this web page with complaints about them. I also feel that this is a scam as a regular would ask for a check or credit card number not a Moneypack. Also if I had accepted the grant money, then why could they not debit commission from the second check? I feel that if I had either cashed or deposited that I would out at least $948.78. These people should be in prison.

We believe this to be a scam.
