They called me, on behalf of Kevin **. I ordered his book, "Free Money They Don't Want You To Know About", trying to get me to have them help me get some grants, and I told them no over and over but Matt ** talked me into sending them lots of money so they could help me with the grants.

He said that if I didn't get a grant within 90 days that I would be able to get all my money back. He said I couldn't lose. I sent $3,600 to them so they could get me a grant to fix up my house, and all I got was a credit card bill I can't pay. If I was going to pay that much, I'd be able to fix my own place up without their help. I was supposed to be able to pay my credit card bill with the help of the grant.

I'm in over my head now because they lied to me. It will take me 19 years to pay my credit card if I can only pay the minimum, and believe me, I can hardly pay that much.

I purchased a book off TV about government grants. Soon after, I was contacted via phone by Jay from MyFundingResourses.com. Jay assured me that this was part of the deal and he would help me get the grants I desired. I called the 800 number from where I purchased the book and they told me that it was common practice for grant writing services such as MyFundingResources.com to contact those who purchased the book. I then checked the Better Business Bureau, which said there were 92 complaints against this company and 88 had been resolved, the company had been doing business since 2007.

I told Jay I was looking for a small business grant for my wife who is disabled. Jay steered me away from the small business grant and explained to me that the hottest thing going was home repair grants. After a series of questions about my 100-year-old home, Jay told me and my wife that if we made less than $160,000.00 that we qualified for all of the "Recovery act" Grants now available while the money lasts. Jay told us that we would receive an enormous amount of money within a month and a half. He spoke of amounts between $200,000 and $280,000, an amount he came up with after making an extensive list of everything that would be replaced and repaired. Over and over Jay kept saying, "We can't guarantee the amount you will receive." Then adding, "You should get between $200,000 and $280,000 based on your repairs. A solid dollar amount at this time can't be realized because of contractors' costs and materials vary." This was repeated several times.

Then someone else from the Financial Department comes on the line to read a statement and take my information to transfer money from my checking. She stated that, "We could not guarantee the dollar amount of funding you would receive, do you understand this?" Of course I answered yes, we had been over and over that. The money went out and I had been scammed out of $4,800.00.

I called to complain and was transferred to Micah, who after several more questions, determined that he could in fact find me funding for help with $120.00 in prescription medicines per month and that would fulfill they're part of the contract. He then stated, "You are not due a refund because we did find you funding." I and my wife are out $4,800.00 plus a $600.00 penalty to the IRS for not paying back her IRA within 60 days.

I also, unfortunately helped out a friend of mine, an elderly lady that lives below the poverty line and paid a fee of $2,700 on her behalf. A supervisor was put on the phone with me and he verified all the information. They charged my credit card with the promise that I would have grant money in hand by the time I received the bill and that they were working directly with the government to help people like me to fund their businesses and home improvements. He further stated that we needed to act fast because they knew of a lot of funds that needed to be distributed by the end of the year.

I was contacted on November 16th in the evening. I was told that I had three days to cancel the contract. I asked them for a written contract by email which was never sent to me. I wrote to them by email requesting the said contract and stated that I do not accept the three day cancellation based on the fact that I did not receive any written contract from them. I called the company's phone several times without anyone ever returning my call. I obtained an email address for the customer service department and I sent them an email on November 20th, canceling my contract and my friends verbal commitment based on the fact that this company has not acted in good faith. This was a Saturday.

I received a phone call the following Tuesday by Nate **, questioning why I wanted to cancel. I told him and said he needed to refund the money immediately. He said he couldn't do that because I canceled after the three day period and notified the dispute department of my MasterCard. The cooling off period after a contract is three full days after and before the beginning of the following business day. Well, this company did receive my cancellation on time. They now argue that the cancellation is not valid because it should have been done in writing to their address in Utah.

It is commonly accepted to cancel by email or fax, if a letter would not reach the destination in time. I did not receive anything from this company until a month later when they started calling my friend and I wanting to set up coaching sessions. I told them that I am waiting for a refund and that I had canceled a month earlier. They stopped calling and I called several times and tried to get my money back. I spoke to several people within that maze of different companies they have set up, but to no avail. They insisted that I should have canceled in writing with their customer service department, which of course I wasn't aware of because I had never received a written contract from them.

Finally, I received a written contract which I refused to sign. I called the customer service department, told them again that I had canceled and also told them that what was written in their letter and what was verbally discussed were entirely different scenarios. The letter stated that they would coach me to fill out forms and that they would in no way guarantee that I would get a grant or the amounts of the grants etc. I have been a business owner for the past 30 years. I know how to fill out forms. I would have never agreed to any of this had I been told the truth that all they did was give you coaching sessions to fill out forms.

My credit company pressured them to credit the money back to me with the result that we got a promise to credit back $4,000 out of the total of $9,800 we had to pay. I received a packet from this company a month after that listed a few websites and phone numbers of companies. All of the sweepstakes and small item grants (like $500.00) were something I had found by myself before. There was absolutely nothing unique and usable in the packet. I called them and said they could have it back and that I had canceled and they sent it to me unsolicited. The same for my friend, she mailed it back to them.

I was scammed by this company big time. The people that work for them are trained in deceiving people and they do not deliver at all what they tell you and promise you. I was told by Nate ** that the government would not back them if they left people worse off than before. Well, I got nothing from them and I am out $5,800 which I cannot afford to pay.

Is there a class action suit I can join to get my money back and when is the government going to step in to shut these people down and jail them for defrauding people? The credit card told me they decided that they could not help me any further because the company did perform a service. The packed with the websites seems to be enough for the credit card company to determine that is worth $5,800. I am questioning the credit card company as well. They are aware of this scam and I am not the first person that was defrauded but yet they still back this company.

I was contacted early in September by a man named Joseph **, saying he could get me government grant money to fix my house which needed about $100,000 of work. He got my name from a book that I purchased from Kevin Treudau. Next, he said I had to talk to his manager Jordan **. My husband and I both talked to him. He said that there were billions of dollars that the government had to give away and also money from private business. So, we put $6,050 on a credit card. They said that refunds were available if there are no funds available for you to apply for. Well, within 30 days, you should get your results. I got my results after I called them a couple of times.

The income on my profile was wrong. I called Mica and he said that they would redo my research over. I received my second research and all they changed was one thing which they added on. The research was for government grants which I didn't qualify for. When I first talked to them, I told them that the deed to my house was in 3 people's name. They said that that didn't matter. It turns out that it does. I also told them I make too much money. They said my income level doesn't matter.

Next, they had a grant writer call me. She goes by the name of Diane who was from Texas. I also paid for a weatherization grant and 14 sessions with a grant writer. On the first session, she said, "One of the organizations on the list has no funding. Don't bother to apply." Then, she said that I needed a computer for some of the others plus my situation was unusual because of the house being in three people's name. To get to the point, by the second call, she ended it. I called Mica and he said he was going to get a grant writer to write the grants for me because I didn't have a computer. The lady, Diane, wasn't a real grant writer.

I next received a call from a girl named Jessica from Washington **. I told her my situation and told her my grants don't match my profile. She said that she's going to talk to her boss and see what she could do for me. She called me back around the middle of this January and told me that there's nothing available for me and she thought I should try to get my money back. She also told me to call my funding resources back because they don't issue refunds. They're hired by my funding resource to write grants. I checked on this company and they also go by the name Wealth Power which is the name of her company.

So, I called Mica back and said that Jessica said there was no funding for my profile. Mica said that I couldn't get my money back and that their here to help me. I called back around January 15 and said that since I can't get my money back, I want my grants written up and my 14 sessions with a grant writer. He called me back and said that he was going to write them himself. I requested a copy of the grants that he was going to write. He said no problem. He said that Diane misunderstood me and she thought I didn't want the grants written.

Well, on Saturday January 22, I receive a call from Jessica that she received orders from Mica to write my grants. She was wondering what's up. I told her Mica was going to write the grants for me. He didn't even tell me he called her. She was supposed to get back to me, but as of today, she hasn't. I don't know what else to do. I hope you can help me.

They called me, stating they had received the info on purchasing Kevin ** book.

They what my condition was I told them I was disable and needing to repair my house to handicap accessible, and I needed help paying for credit card bills. I spent $3655.00 on the grant. They said, it would take 30 days to 45 days to hear from the grant. I asked Shawee, she is suppose to be a compliance officer, I asked if I was not satisfied would I receive my money back? She stated," Yes."

Even Tiffany ** stated that they had a 100 percent money back guarantee.They even sent a certified letter to me stating that. A week before I got my package a man named David ** called stating that he had gotten word from my funding resources, stating that had found a lot of programs that I qualified for with ranges of $100,000.00 or more.

But they where grant writers. Their fee was $5100.00 credit card cash that would do $4200.00 I passed on it. I thought to myself what was the $3655.00, I paid was for. I called my funding resources and told them about it. Said not take any more calls from him. Then came the grant package it had maybe 25 or 30 page nothing to do what I was looking for.

I left messages, then Serigo ** called asking what was going on. I told him the grants that was given to me had nothing to with what was asking for. Asked for a refund on Dec. 9th 2010. He said he would called on the 10th of Dec. And give me my answer on refund. After a week of calling, he finally called, said that I would not receive my refund.

Stating that I agreed to the 3 day cancel policy but if it takes between 30 to 45 days just to get the grant proposal back. I told him your company assured me that if at anytime I was not happy I would receive the money back based on their 100% guarantee. They kept mentioning without this refund policy, they did not want to lose their merchant account .I am on Social Security disability drawing $964 dollars I can not afford losing this money. I feel if the Utah Attorney general does not step in and help they will continue their merry way.

I received a call from a Jeremy ** with My Funding Resources stating the he received my information and profile when I purchased the book "Free Money They Don't Want You To Know About" that is written by Kevin **. He said that they are a company selected to assist people who purchased this book and they can further help you to obtain free grant from the government at sites that many people overlook and do have the patience to pursuit. He went on to to ask what type of grant would I be interested in. I mentioned that I was looking for medical grants for free medicine. After talking, he felt that I would need something in the range of a $50,000 grant and that I should have no problem getting this grant. He also had asked about my debts when he was asking about my income which made sense to me as I was sure they would need to compare the two to see if I would qualify for a grant.

In his inquiry of my debts, he asked if I had credit card debt. I told him no. He asked what types of credit cards I had and how much I owed. I told him that I normally don't give out that information and he said it was okay but wanted me to speak with the Director of Grants that would ask me other questions that would help me qualify for the free money. As soon as he put me on hold, I googled the company name and the first link that came up read "Company Fraud". I quickly reviewed some of the write ups of people that were scammed by these individuals.

When Jeremy returned, I told him what I had read and that I refused to give out any information and that I was not interested. He answered me that he was going to check into the site and that he was new in the company and that they were a legit company. I hung up the phone on him and quickly received a call from the Grants Director who questioned what I mentioned to Jeremy and was adamant, nasty and of course a smart **and because I did not back down, he hung up on me. That is perfectly fine!

But I say to everyone out there that you should notify all three credit bureau companies and alert them to this company so that will red flag your information as well as your bank. Apparently, they were given your information by an operator who took your phone order. I am pursuing and investigation on them and everyone should launch a class action suit. As for Mr. Kevin , with all the money that he has received from the unfortunate, he himself should pay for an investigation into this fraud company as his name is being tarnished and this experience brands his company as an overall scam! If you are listening Mr. Kevin, it is important that you shut these people down!

We purchased a package that was to contain guaranteed federal grants and a corporate setup. We purchased it for $12,000.00 only to receive a booklet of about 25 pages of sweepstakes, some grants from companies (no federal grants), business resources that we are well aware of already.

It is a complete scam and they are stealing thousands and thousands of dollars from people. The Attorney general in Utah is well aware of them, but hey, they are still letting them steal thousands of dollars from people. We just do not understand how the government can allow this. Right now, we have received all but $4,000 back. We are pursuing this and plan on filing suit this week if not settled. How many more people are going to be ripped off while all the time the attorney general sits back and watches? There is also a suit with other states involved by the Federal Trade Commission. They operate several different business, and from my research they all have several, several complaints filed against them.

My husband and I bought your book and we got a website out of your book. We called them and my husband's boss went to give us the money. We got the call from the boss and told us that this company was rated a D in the Better Business bureau. They are using several names. I just wanted to let you know know since Kevin is supposed to know it all. We're not happy with the websites not being right. I think if Kevin is going to use websites, he needs to know about them. Your book says in black & white there's no upfront cost.

Well, we had to pay $2700 for application fees. What is going on with that. I would like an answer. I really would like to talk to someone on the phone. I have my number on there. There are so many people that get their hopes up and then they are let down . This is not cool. The website is **. Please be aware of them. How well can someone trust Kevin's words?

I received a call from a John ** with My Funding Resources just a couple of days ago referencing the fact that I had purchased the book "Free Money They Don't Want You To Know About" that is written by Kevin Trudeau. I had purchased the book in hopes that I might be able to find some way of locating a grant for home repairs.

When John ** called, me he started immediately asking what type of repairs did my home need and what was my income. After talking, he felt that I would need something in the range of a $50,000 grant and that I should have no problem getting this grant. He also had asked about my debts when he was asking about my income which made sense to me as I was sure they would need to compare the two to see if I would qualify for a grant. In his inquiry of my debts, he asked if I had credit card debt. I told him no.

He asked if I had a credit card and I told him only a store card. He then advised me that for him to be able to bring my application before his Director that I would need to go to my bank and request a line of credit. Now I am not proud of the fact that about a year ago I had to file bankruptcy as I had lost one of my jobs that I had counted on the income from at the time I bought my home.

So naturally, when the income dropped so did the capability of paying all the debts I had. I went through the debt consolidation bit which just cost me money. I didn't have to try to avoid filing the bankruptcy. I even tried a loan modification which did not help me at all. Anyway, I guess I'm getting a little off the track. When I went through the bankruptcy I was instructed by the court that I could not apply for a credit card or loan while I was paying my bankruptcy balance off. I told John ** this and he flat out told me "No, they can't keep you from getting a credit card.

I found out that My Funding Resources is a division of Wealth Power Systems by trying to check for a BBB report. Turns out Wealth Power Systems has a D+ rating with the BBB of Utah. Didn't exactly impress me. I am so glad that I found this site. I have been debating about what to do since I received their phone call as I do need my home repaired but I can't afford another debt that I can't pay back. Thanks to all of you for your comments.

Lastly, I have to admit I am a little ticked out that I would be contacted by a company with this kind of BBB rating linked by a book I purchased from Kevin Trudeau. After all, he's suppose to be so concerned for letting everyone know what is really going on out there in the real world of finance and politics.

I bought a book written by Kevin ***. This company got my name and called me and sold me services to look for government grants. It seemed so legitimate that I paid them $5850 with my credit card for them to mentor me in looking for grants for home improvement and weatherization and for my daughter's college tuition. They told me that when I called that I would get an answering machine and they would call me right back. Well, I called them on 9/14 and they never called me back so I'm thinking I was scammed. I trusted them because I figured they were linked to Kevin *** who I thought was a consumer advocate.

Please remove my article. I received a paper to solve the problems we were having. I did not sign it yet but will. Please remove immediately. I do want my money back and don't want to mess up my situation worse than what it was. I believe in keeping my word. I did not receive the agreement until today. Thank you so much.

I have received many calls from this outfit. They are all sweet talkers and I gave information that I should not have. I know better but I did trust them. They told me to get together all things I needed fixed on my place. I would have qualified for 3 types of grants they promised me. I did not sign the email they had and Park told me it was not legal anyway. They could not hold me to it. They sent me one by mail and I had to fax it back. I did not send back the top page. Michele called me and told me she needed this page to make it binding so they could proceed. I than signed the email.

I immediately, by email, told them to ignore this as I did not want to belong. Same page. I kept all my emails and correspondence with the outfit. They took my money. All they said was I would not have to give more money to get my important information to get my grants. Mr. ** called me when I said I would call the credit card company and dispute this. He talked me into telling Rachael I would go along with this again. He told me no more money would be asked for, as all the others did. I took down all the names and phone numbers of all who called me. I told them I would not open anything from them and do not work for me. I did not pick up the certified mail package. The post office sent it back.

This was way after things were canceled by me and warned them I would not open the mail. I told them to replace my money in the credit card. They agreed and I still did not receive it. Mr. **, said he was with the Board of Directors, said I had to sign a disclosure that I would not inform the FBI before they would give me back most of the money. I told them to do it immediately. Nothing yet. I called and was told after really working hard to get hold of Mica that it was sent last Friday. I called the post office and it's the 10th of September and I did not get a certified letter. It's been 7 days and it's long enough to get the certified letter. They were going to give me credit for all but over 1000. I told them it was not fair. He said I was a nice lady and they would settle for $500. They agreed to send all but $500 back to the credit card people.

I have names and phone numbers of all that called me. I wrote down all. I want all my money to be refunded because they really did nothing for me. I did not open the envelopes and they told me my signature was not valid and they also needed the top page of the fax paper to make it good. My money was taken on July 24th and I could not get anyone afterward. I told a man when he asked for more money that it's a scam and I wanted my money back. He said they would call me the next day. They did not. He hung up on me. I have so much more to say.

I received a call from My Funding Resources who promised they should provide me with names and address organizations that offer grants for the three projects I was interested in. They charged my $6725.00 for 3 packets of so called costumed information and Webinar sessions for me that took over a month to receive. I began my own searches after not hearing anything from them and received all the information I needed on-line and from television ads.

I decided to look this company up after I called to cancel before I received the packages and found too many consumer affairs.com reports stating the same thing happened to them. I attempted to negotiate with them. My you I never started the Webinar Sessions and told them I wouldn't and requested that part of my money back. The last contact we had they want to make me take the sessions, I told them you can't make me do that.

I contacted the Attorney General's Office in Utah, they know of them. The packets they sent out to me are not applications they are just websites from the companies I found on-line myself, along with some prizes and contests. Contest is not Grants. I am out $6725.00 on this scam so far. They said they would not give me a refund or credit for the Webinar sessions I won't take. I don't trust this organization, nor do I want to have anything else to do with them. I wanted these grants to help other people. I cannot afford to lose this money to whom I believe now are Scam Artist! I would like to have the complainants unite to get their money back.

I was contacted and explained that I could apply for a grant to have my roof repaired and the grant would double the amount of what I paid. So, I gave them my credit card number and they took out $4,495.00 the first time. Then, they called me again and stated that another amount was needed by a phone number of **, Empower Dier Ageny/Sandy from Utah located 8 miles S. of Red River in Texas S. of Oklahoma. They took out another $ 3,555.00 stating that the grant amount would be tripled, and I could even fix up my trailer home to make it look better. I am an 84 yr. old man on a budget and I am still paying my credit card. I am filing a police report to try to get my money back and report it as a scam. I got a whole lot of books and info but not many or grant as promised.

My husband received a call with 100% guarantee that this company will find him a grant that he would qualify for or his money would be refunded. All he received was useless. He paid $6,000 upfront. When he asked to opt out, he was told all he needed to do was write a letter. The letter was written. He called and was told that they received the letter but he would not get a refund. I went on the internet and found other people that have not gotten what was promised. We are out of money that we can not afford to lose.

I received a telephone call from My Funding Resources who promised that they would provide me with names and addresses of organizations that offer grants for what I wanted to do. I needed $200,000 in order to construct a miniature golf course as my business. They charged me $4900 for the research which also included 10 coaching sessions with a professional grant writer that would teach me how to fill out grant applications. However, when I received the research, it was nothing but contests to enter and they also included information on obtaining loans. Their refund policy states that you will receive a refund in the event that there are no grants to apply for based on your profile. Well, contests are not grants, so therefore, there were no grants to apply for. I have tried to get a refund and they keep refusing my request. They claim that they sent me research on grants to apply for and that I needed to fill out the grant applications and mail them in. There are no grant applications to be filled out and this is a big scam! I am out $4900 for this scam!

I purchased information for a government grant for house repairs. The grant consultant said, "I can guarantee that you will get the grant you need for you repairs." Then I got the folder with misleading information and out-of-date telephone numbers. I wrote a letter requesting a refund and my request was denied by letter.
