This one contacted me through the New York Investment Network. Had a similar experience to the person from Warner Robins, GA in report #412475 (I wish i had checked here first and saved the time).

Said they had a network of investors, but i had to clear first hurdle - fill out a summary . . . which i did. Then a big Congratulations! you've been selected. Btw, there's a 'refundable' $2'500 fee to get started.

After discovering this website. I contacted the NYIN administrator explaining the scam - he removed them, but said they were from a different network (from texas; indeed, these angel investment sites e.g., newyorkinvestmentnetwork.com are of very limited use and cost $250).

I wrote back to the PGF and said that before i sent $2'500, I'd like the names of three firms they helped fund, and got a mangled reply (someone obviously 'cut and paste', as it said 'good morning jim' and then after some boilerplate said 'good morning john' and then the same boilerplate) saying all firms sign an nda - which doesn't make sense: once funded, a company would be happy to be used as a reference.

Don't waste your time with them (oh, yes, particularly insulting, this was also added: I pride myself on my good reputation as a professional, Christian business woman. I am happy to say that you will not find any complaints against the company. As you know in todays time with the internet, if a business is pulling a scam on a client it will be filed asap. I do hear your concerns with the scams/frauds that happens these days.)

THERE IS NO SCAM OR RIPOFF-JUST BECAUSE YOU WANT SOMEONE TO WORK FOR FREE

YOU DID NOT PAY FOR A SERVICE. SO THERE IS NO RIP-OFF. WE DON'T WORK FOR FREE! JUST LIKE YOU DON'T WORK FOR FREE.
SO, WHY WOULD YOU SAY SOMEONE IS SCAMMING YOU FOR CHARGING FOR A SERVICE. YOU DIDN'T PAY FOR ANY SERVICE. SO, WHERE IS THE RIPOFF?
MAYBE I SHOULD COME ONE HERE AND COMPLAIN ABOUT YOU BEING A RIP-OFF FOR WANTING FREE WORK! BUT, I WOULDN'T DO THAT.


Work for free yourself and quit wanting hand-outs!
BTW...You DID have an actual investor that wanted to fund your project!
However, they agreed with me....if someone can't pay may measley fee for my service, how in the world would they pay the investor back or run a business without paying bills!
