Default Americas First Financial Choices

Hello. I contacted this business on the 20th this month and got a call back from them today.
They told me from the email that i sent them that i am accepted to get a $75,000 grant.
They told me that I must fill out a contract and some other paperwork. I got told that I must pay $439 for them to write the grant proposal and send it off to a grantor. They sound legit from when i was talking with one of the employees but i wanted to ask here first to know If anyone has ever dealt with them before? I know alot of people say you dont need to pay for a grant but the $439 payment is for the grant proposal.

Do not pay it. You'll never see a dime (including your $439).

My husband and I were gullible enough to send them our $439.00. We were told we would recieve a questionaire and letter of acceptance in 10-12 days. We have recieved nothing and no one will answer or return our phone calls. It has been several weeks now. I believe Americas First Financial Choices to be a first class scam!

Angry Re: Americas First Financial Choices

Tara little is LYING to you. She does NOT have a grant approval in your name. Once you've sent your money, they send you a 'questionnaire' that is a steaming pile of identity theft topped with the cherry of:
"Customer confirms that he authorizes our company to disclose his information and answers to the present questionnaire, including for the purpose of allowing third parties to communicate offers that may be of interest to customer as evidenced by customers's answers. This authorization shall include the right to contact customer by mail, e-mail, telephone and/or any other means chosen."
DON'T MAKE THE MISTAKE THAT I DID! TARA LITTLE IS LYING TO YOU!!

Exclamation Re: Americas First Financial Choices

Hi,This is for all who have had any dealings with Americas First Financial Choices.I did send $439and recieved a questionaire,now for 4 weeks there is no answer @their number.They promised a grant of $115,000.Now,time is down to the last day, no money,no grant,no refund,nobody to get my guaraunteed money back from! They still have answering machine to tell you they are expierencing high call volume,or to apply online.Please, DON'T.I believed what they said,but all they did was take my money and run off.I can't understand how people can do that to anyone,especially a disabled person on fixed income. I guess it takes all kinds.
