| Government Grant Scams Revealed! |
Thanks for visiting the Scam Watch website! My name is David Jones and I have 7 years experience of investigating Government Grants and other "work from home" jobs on the Internet. On the site I have reviewed a handful of the best Government Grant resource sites available!
During my time researching Government Grant websites I have come across thousands of so-called genuine Governement Grant agencies which not only end up costing a small-fortune to join, but which also fail to provide the user with any help in applying for the grants - in the end you don't get a grant, and you find yourself back to square one. Thankfully for all the scammer sites and other useless websites that I discovered on my travels, I have also managed to find a handful of legitimate Government Grant sites as well. |

| What Are Government Grants? |
Government Grants have been around for decades, but it is only in recent years that they have started to gain a lot more publicity, thanks in part to the rise in popularity of the Internet. The information on Government Grants used to be tucked away from most people's reach, but now there are websites popping up every day to help people claim any kind of benefits that they are entitled to, and Government Grants are finally getting the publicity that they deserve.
There are hundreds of thousands of financial advise websites which all sing the praises of Government Grants, especially in todays day-and-age when some people struggle to get the money and help that they deserve. Anyone can be eligible for a grant from the Government as they can be used for all sorts of purposes, such as...
Housing Grants
Business Grants
College Grants
Investment Grants
and many many more...
One of the difficulties that most people have with regards to receiving a Government Grant is that they simply do not know how to go about it. Perhaps they aren't well-enough informed about them, perhaps they don't realise that they are completely free, maybe they don't even realise that they are eligible for one (and nearly everyone is!).

| Finding The Genuine Government Grant Websites |
This is why there are so many Government Grant websites currently on the Internet - they are all willing to help you to get your Grant from the Government. The only problem is that some of these websites pry on the legitimate name that the Government has, as well as the fact that people love free money! For example, if you were able to get money for free, I'm sure you would be interested. Now, if you were told that this money was given out by the Government, I'm certain you would be very interested! However, many dodgy companies and websites have jumped onto this bandwagon and have been trying to charge people huge amounts of money simply to help someone to receive their free grant. In actual fact there are some sites that give out this information for free, simply charging a small postage & packing fee to send out this info.
You've probably already seen many eye-catching adverts on sites like Google and Yahoo like these:
$120,000 Given To Frank To Start Recycling Business
Get A Free Government Grant Today!
Single Mom Receives $30,000 To Go To College
$300 Billion Available In Government Grants
Dave Receives $30,000 To Travel The World
These adverts all sound very tempting, and the ad-text itself may actually be true, but after visiting their website or company you will no-doubt be asked to cough up a hefty sum of money simply to access their Government Grant guides. The problem with most of these sites is that they don't actually help because they will provide out of date or incorrect information, links or contact details of old or ficticius companies, links to other agencies who charge you yet another fee, no actual help in filling out the application, no customer services or help.

| My Government Grant Website Reviews |
The typical Government Grant website will charge around $100 - $150 for site membership, and this is way too much to pay, and is usually the sign of one of these fly-by-night companies who simply take your money and run. From my investigations into Government Grants the legitimate sites that I was able to find only actually charged around $5-$20 for full site membership, and even some of these sites gave away their membership for free.
You can read the reviews of the genuine Government Grant agency websites below, which were written after reviewing each site for a period of 2 months, before managing to successfully apply for my own grants from the Government. I've provided a rating (out of 10) for each site, along with a link to join each of the sites. |

| Grant Research Guide Review |
Website: Click Here To Join Grant Research Guide
Price: FREE ($1.95 shipping cost)
Money Back Guarantee: No (you can cancel at anytime)
Review:
The Grant Research Guide website is one of the most popular and established Government Grant websites available to join on the Internet. Thousands of people have signed up to the website at some point, and no-doubt thousands of these people have gone on to receive the funding that they required thanks to the website.
Upon joining the website you will have an option as to download the software instantly from their website, or to pay the shipping and handling costs to be sent out a CD. The download option is great for people who want to have instant access to their software, instead of having to wait a few days for the CD to arrive.
On the CD there is a huge Government Grants database, which is updated on a daily basis (updates can be downloaded from the Internet). This database is hugely important because it saves you so much time so instead of having to trawl through hundreds of other websites you can quickly and instantly find the information for the grant that you require.
The guide itself contains plenty of indispensible information on how to get approved for your Government grant, how to apply for them, the best ones to apply for, how the process works, etc. It really does help you out on everything you need to know regarding the grants, and I can see why so many other people join the site on a regular basis.

| Grant A Day Review |
Website: Click Here To Join Grant A Day
Price: FREE ($2.99 shipping cost)
Money Back Guarantee: Yes
Review:
The Grant A Day website is very well organised and laid out, whereas some Government Grant sites like to swamp you with information and scatter it all over the site, in a very annoying manner. However at Grant A Day all the information is concise and nicely presented, in a clear and easy-to-understand way.
After joining the site for free (although you have to pay the $2.99 shipping and handling cost) you will be sent a CD in the post, as part of your membership of the site. This CD contains the software which will help you on your quest to obtaining a free grant from the Government.
The Grant A Day site really makes the process very simple. You just join the site, wait a day or so to receive the CD, run the software, and by using the programs along with the information on their website you will soon be able to apply for all kinds of Government Grants.
Although at one point I was finding it hard to understand one of the pieces of information on the application form, I simply logged onto the site and went to the customer services section and asked for help. My request was answered in a matter of minutes, which was very useful. The Grant A Day site provides excellent customer service to all of its members.
The Grant A Day website is a great site which contains really useful information and software, also with some great customer service, but as one of the more-expensive Government Grant sites out of the 3 listed here I've decided to only give it 7.5 stars out of 10.

| Grant University Review |
Website: Click Here To Join Grant University
Price: FREE ($1.98 shipping cost)
Money Back Guarantee: No (you can cancel at anytime)
Review:
From all my investigations into Government Grant websites, my ultimate favourite has to be the Grant University website. Not only is it one of the cheapest sites to join (albeit by only a few dollars), the site contains absoultely everything you need in order to succesfully apply for your chosen Government Grants.
The Government Grants site is again free to join although it will cost $1.98 to receive your CD in the post. The CD contains the same kind of software as both the grant websites above, but I find that the Grant University software is far more superior - it is incredibly simple to use, and I found the process of researching, selecting and applying for my grant a very easy one.
The website itself contains realms of helpful information, and the customer services provided were excellent. Although I did encounter 1 or 2 slight problems when I was considering the grant that suited my personal situation, I simply contacted the support department at Grant University and literally 5 minutes later I could move on to the next step.
Out of all of the dodgy Government grant sites that I encountered, and then of course the genuine Government grant sites that I listed above, the Grant University site is my overall favourite due to its simplicity and support. Within just a few hours you could have selected a grant that suits your needs, and could be well on the way to receive your funding as well.
