Scams
| 1.
Matthew Lesko: |
- He promises "billions of dollars
in FREE MONEY!!!!" to practically anyone..including entrpreneurs.
It sounds almost too good to be true, eh?
- The information in Lesko's book
cannot be called "false", but it is definitely misleading.
Such monies may be available, but not necessarily for your profit-seeking
business and not without considerable stipulations
- Beware of such scams, especially
where you are required to [as in the purchase of a book] to put
up any money. If the programs are really that good, you will be
able to find out about them by yourself for free.
- The Better Business Bureau gives
Matthew Lesko's book company an "unsatisfactory record."

2. American Grant & Loan Consultants, Inc. |
- This company has many aliases, including
National Grant Finders and Foundation Grants Assistance
- All companies affiliated with this
organization require you to put money down in exchange for "guaranteed
results" [or your money back!?]
- According to Jane Nober of the Council
on Foundations, these companies are "outright scams..the
operators combine a little bit of truth with a lot of lies".
- AGLC has a deplorable record with
the Better Business Bureau, for such things as a "pattern
of complaints", "non-delivery", "inability
to obtain a refund", and "a pattern of no response".
- The Michigan Attorney General's
Office has filed suit against this organization, attempting to
get its license revoked.
- Avoid all such companies, those
that purport to help you get grant money "to do absolutely
anything".
