when you get taken in by the scammers who promise they will get you a grant to start your business. I can't count how many of these e-mails I've gotten over the years, but here's the latest one which arrived today:
This poor woman has basically thrown away $300 because there aren't any grantors who are going to give her money to start her business. Now the person she paid wants more money and doesn't anwer the phone. What a surprise.Hello, my name is xxx, i want to start my business by opening a store. I submitted a grant to someone to prepare it for me back in Feb. I prepared the business plan. I feel that i've been getting the run-around because when we first started i was told one amount, and i was told that the grantors have contacted him, and now that amount has changed tremendously. but he never tells me when they have contacting him. i can never reach this person on the phone because they never answer the phone. i feel as though he tell me whatever to get me out of his face. i paid this person $300.00 to submit my grant. is there anyway i can find out if the grantors accepted or rejected my proposal? any feedback would be appreciated. thank you.
