Debt2Wealth Club fraudently obtained my Visa info from My Search from Grants which is located in Henderson Nevada, Las Vegas Nevada
My personal opinion is that they are the same company. Debt 2 Wealth sent me an email confirming my online order confirmation. Thing is I never ordered any nor had ever heard of them until this email. They claimed they were going to debit my Visa $30.00 every month after the 21 day trial membership ended. Needless to say I called my credit card company and had that card canceled.
Now regarding My search for grants. I ordered the grant processing kit, which I have since canceled due to the fact that they were going to debit my Visa $69.00 every month to have the right to access their web site. I called customer service and spoke with Jamal Malik, who needless to say was not very helpful. I told him I wanted to cancel the grant kit which cost $1.98 for shipping. He canceled the service for the $69.00 per month but he did not want too refund $1.98 for the kit which was never shipped.
After several minutes of me telling him in no uncertain terms that I was not going to accept any charges to my Visa from his company he finally said he will remove the $1.98 form my credit card. Jamal was a smart a** saying he did not want to financially burden me with the $1.98 charge. I told him the principle of the whole thing is that I should not have to pay anything for a good or service that I did not receive. These people need to be put out of business and have fraud charges filed against them

You all are being too harsh. Some people, especially young ones who haven't been out in the world long enough to know what kind of people are out there, just take people for their word and have to learn the hard way. No matter how you look at it, it is a scam like all the others out there who hide the truth in a maze of illegible fine print. There is no excuse for it.
Where this person lives is a rural part of Va near where I live in the mountains. People around here are honest and hardworking and we sometimes easily get taken by city slickers who think that getting one over on someone is better than good old fashioned hard work. Well, they may get us once in a while, but at we can sleep at night knowing that the food our kids are eating was bought with "good" money.

We have someone who wants "something for nothing".
Look, do you REALLY believe that a company would send out a grant finding kit that costs ONLY $1.95?? They would be LOSING money at that rate... The printed materials and CD-ROM, PLUS the shipping costs, merchant charges on processing credit cards not to mention the people in their employ who must be paid... They'd be out of business overnight at JUST $1.95, don't you think?
OF COURSE, there are "hidden" costs in this. Why do you think these places take ONLY credit cards? There are no cash purchase nor money order options with these types of online offers. I've looked at a few of them and they are ALL the same basic model: Lure people in with a promise of "easy money" from grants or even "working for Google" (two of the most common offers) at a ridiculously low "price" of $1.95, keep them bedazzled with the carrot on a stick of that EASY MONEY, and while the person is drooling and scrambling for their credit card, hope they don't notice the "fine print" of the 3x$69 or whatever they're going to ding you for.
Have you tried going to one of these sites and at the last minute, think "no" and close the window? What happens? There's a pop-up that practically BEGS you to stay, reconsider, and the DIRE WARNING that they "cannot hold your "kit" for longer than X amount of time.. These are known as RED FLAGS and your gut should be SCREAMING "scam!" at that point.
IF IT SEEMS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE, IT IS!
The days of "easy money" in the form it's being offered here don't exist, and they never did.
