Grants? I don’t think that this is really going to help…

I have been following this ‘grants’ thing for quite some time from different sources, and today was the final straw because of the ‘fine’ print (even if it is at the top of the page). I am getting VERY tired of this stuff even if it is not a ’scam’ as they claim. If you don’t take action in 7 days you are going to find a scary reduction on your credit card if you don’t. Now mind you, if you don’t have a credit card (because of the financial state you are in) surely that ‘last Ramon noodle meal’ as one testimony states will most likely be your last. We really need to look for sources that are truly FREE and not just to line someone elses’ pocket Read this fine print below to see what I mean

Terms, Disclosures, and Electronic Signature Information. xxx authorization to provide and bill its services is obtained by way of your electronic signature. Once submitted, this electronic order constitutes an electronic letter of agency. xxx reliance on your electronic signature, as obtained above, is done pursuant to the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act and the electronic Signatures in Global and National Transactions Act. Both laws specifically preempt State laws that recognize only paper records or handwritten signatures. By submitting this form, I am ordering the yyyy and trial membership for $2.29 S&H. After the 7 day trial, I will be charged $39.95 a month thereafter if I do not cancel. I also agree to the 14 day and 21 day bonus trials to the zzzz  and zzzz for $19.95 a and $9.95 a month thereafter, should I choose not to cancel.

I have removed the company name, program, and phone number. But, I think you get the idea here. While these are not scams (perhaps) we really need to take a close look before we get deeper into the problems we have.

Dear Friend,
Having obtained your contact from the internet that you deserve trust,
coupled with my deep interest to invest in your country, I decided to
contact and solicit your Mutual assistance at all cost. 
Please accept my apology if this e-mail is embarrassing you as you
don’t know me. My Mother and I are in need of urgent assistance. I am Mr.
William Kablan, the only son Of Sir, David Kablan of Zimbabwe. During
the current crises against farmers in Zimbabwe and from the support of
our president ROBERT MUGABE to claim all the white Owned Farms in our
country.
All the white farmers where ordered to surrender their farms to his
party members, My Father who was one of the best farmers in our country
did not support his idea, And So the party members invaded my father’s
farms and burnt everything in the farm, and My father was beaten up by
this evil men and made away with a lot of properties in My father’s farm
company and the tension was so much on him he was rushed to a SPECIALIT
HOSPITAL in South Africa along with me and my mother, we moved out of
Zimbabwe because our lives were in danger, and after much distress my
beloved father Died here in South Africa.
But before then, my father handed over to my mother a proof of deposit
Slip/Agreement and some documents which were made between him and
SECURITY COMPANY PTY LTD here in South Africa on which he deposited the sum
OF $26M (TWENTY SIX MILLION UNITED STATES OF AMERICA DOLLAR.  
This money was raised by his farmer’s group for the purchasing of
farming Equipments/machineries before the land dispute Rose. So we decided
to make contact With an overseas person, who will assist us to transfer
this money out of South Africa, we want to be there in your country.
We’re here as refugee and our status doesn’t allow us to stand for the
fund for transfer, I want you to stand as my Father’s beneficiary with
the help of my father’s friend who is a banker here for Fast and easy
movement.
Note that for your time and help, 25% of this fund is yours and 5% of
the fund is for any expenses that will be incurred both locally and
internationally in the Course of this transfer and the remaining 70% is for
my family to start up a Business in your country with your support.
We’re expecting to hear from you as soon
As possible for more details.
THANKS AND GOD BLESS YOU

Cash Gifting Scam or Legit – Guest Article

Cash Gifting Scam or Legit – Cash Gifting Is It Illegal or Legal?
By Joshua Valentine

Here is the deal. Giving gifts is a part of everyday life, right? Well yes it is, but what about giving gifts of cash that is really a business without a product, in disguise? What makes this different than a ponzi scheme is it different than your typical chain letter?

How Does It Work

You begin by searching online looking for a real business opportunity and you end up on the landing page or website where someone is ripping open large envelopes filled with cash. They only show there hands they have no contact information other than an po box or something. Here is the claim, online business is really only about making money so why not just give the money as a gift and forget about the products. So to make money and start having others gift to you, you give a gift to a sponsor and their upline sponsor to then begin your chain of gift givers.

Scam or Legit

The claims are that these programs are legal as long as you follow certain IRS rules of “gifting”. Now here is how I look at it. These people do not have contact information on the sites other than a po box. They do not show there face and they are sending large sums of cash through the mail. This is nothing more than an online chain letter. What I know is that these gifting programs pop up and are typically here for a bit than disappear. Why? I can’t answer that. You will have to use your judgment on that.

So is Cash Gifting a Scam or Legit, my conclusion is that I would not want anything to do with a business that is on the border of honest and ethical as well as one that could potentially have legal consequences. If you choose Cash Gifting as a business, remember that with any online business you will need mentoring and training to learn how to drive large amounts of traffic to your web site. How will this happen if your sponsor is hiding his or her identity? If this is not right for you, I would partner up with a team of successful online marketers who will train and mentor you how to make money online.
