I need a help! i don't know if this is a scam. www.unitedstatesgrants.org?

There was one day that my husband mentioned about Free Grant. Since we're looking for a new business and i am just new here in USA, and we don't have much money to put up, so he told me try to open Free Grants cuz maybe the gov't will gonna help me.
Then opened the site, there's a free book free but we have to pay the shipping and handling cost about $3.87 but they are willing to grant my needs without paying back. I registered over internet but i did not put my husband's mastercard's pin number cuz i am just afraid if this is scam.
This morning we receieved a call from free grants and this woman from called from call center she asked my husband's pin number. I said i don't know.
There are things i observed: the site has no contact numbers. When i called the 1-800 federal law, she said it's not listed. When i called the law agency she said, it might be a scam because they're not listed.

pls. help me.. thanks!

God Bless!

I think there's no such free grants because as what i observed here, there are so many low income family and instead they will gonna help people like me, they will give it those citizens who really need it.

One thing: I asked where did they get the money for free grants, she said it comes from tax payers. I don't think so.

Please help me.. i need some advice.. she will call me back on saturday. Pls help me.. thanks!

There is one thing you can do to verify if this company is legitimate. For the meantime, Do NOT give them any of your personal information - even your last name. If you have, tell them that you want your name taken off their mailing list.

1) The first thing to do is to go to www.bbb.org This is called the Better Business Bureau. This organization is active in the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico. Members agree to abide by terms of the BBB, and consumers can use the group to help resolve complaints and issues, even with non-members. The BBB is considered a highly reputable organization, and works such as the Wise Giving Alliance are widely applauded by consumer activists.

I checked out the website that you posted www.unitedstatesgrants.org and BBB does NOT have them in their database. This means that they probably do not exist.

i'd say its a scam-- good thing you didn't give your credit card number..... a lot of companies will give you one thing for free, but you have to pay shipping and then at a later date charge you if you keep the item or begin sending shipments every month or so and charge you for those.

Definetly sounds like a scam. Never give pin numbers to anyone, if they asking then they probably know your address, account number..anything.

ummm yeah... scammers for sure... beware!

why not send them a money order for the $3.87? Then when you lose your money it won't be your whole credit card balance!
