I purchased a government grant information cd on information to obtain government grants, and was billed $1.98 for shipping and handling, (Grant Funding Search aka DRI*REG.NET REGNETORD.COM) ON February 23, 2009. I received the product on February 28, 2009. I listened to the CD briefly upon receipt but could not figure out how to get into the web site so figured I would call the company Monday March 2, 2009.
On Monday March 2, 2009 I checked my checking account to see if a deposit I was expecting was made and I found that my checking account had been charged an additional $69.95 by the same company that made the $1.98 transaction. When I checked the name of the company making the withdraw (different then the actual Grant Funding Name, on the computer, I found MANY people were being scammed by the same company (DRI*REG.NET REGNETORD.COMMNUS) following a "free" purchase and paying the 1.98 shipping and handling. I contacted my bank immediately canceled my Check card, and once the bank opens will file a formal complaint there too. At approximately 5:20 AM on March 2, 2009, I contacted Grant Funding Search at the phone number provided (1-888-210-2544), I was told that I was given 7 days to cancel my order. I explained I didn't get the order until Saturday. The person on the phone stated you had access to our site before you got the cd explaining how to use the site, and it takes 7-10 days to get the cd, you have to cancel in 7 days?????????? I told them they were SCAM ARTIST!!! I didn't AUTHORIZE ANYTHING but $1.98 shiping and handling, and they STOLE another $69.95! And I plan to report them as such, and tell people about them making UNAUTHORIZED withdraws and stealing MONEY!!!
