With the passage of the new $787 economic stimulus bill comes the side effect of a substantial amount of stimulus scams.  A google search for “government grants” will bring up dozens of sponsored links stating some of the following:


  • Let us show you which government grants will pay…
  • Receive your $10,000 government stimulus grant in 7 days…
  • For just $5.99, let us show you how to claim your free government grant…

Some of the ads even go so far as to warn you against visiting other government grant scam sites.

Do you want to know the truth behind these sites? Pay attention.  There are in fact thousands of government grants and aid packages available.  Some of them you are probably already aware of, such as financial aid packages (loans and grants) for higher education, retirement income (social security), and employment insurance. If you use tax accounting software such as Turbo Tax or Tax Cut, then you have probably been exposed to interview questions that help you file for and receive the earned income tax credit and the child care tax credit.  These are the exact “government grants” and “stimulus checks” that those sites are going to give you information on for a small fee.  But you do not need to pay for such information, because it is available for free on government websites.

Here are just a few government websites (.gov addresses) that offer FREE INFORMATION on all the available government loans, grants, and tax credits available:

Any other site that promises information is just after your money!  You will get the same information on the same two websites above in exchange for your money.  Just click on either link above to get the information for FREE.

But if you still INSIST on PAYING for FREE INFORMATION, then just click on and BUY the following book.
