Al Is up to the same trick but some minor changes. The company name is the Grant Organization. Oddly enough the fax number is still the same 310-919-0154. It is still registered to the Female’s Business League. Their scammer sight for payment is http://www.findgrantpeople.net or .info. Somebody must be placing pressure on Al because he is asking for untracable money cards not prepaid Visa or Mastercard. The bank is Key Bank, Check written by Integrated Payment Sytems. New twist on scam they send a 945 dollar check of the 10,000 dollar “grant” you send him 4.09% or $409 in return in less than 5 days then he’ll send the remainder of the $10,000($9055).

I ran awardchecks.net thru whois. Send the partyvan there plz. I’m surprised no ones done it before, but you can easily look up who owns domains, trace IP’s, and most e-mails yourself. I signed up for inboxdollars and paidsurveys and have been getting those scam spam e-mails for months.

i received one of these let me help you for nothing check. all i had to do was send back a commission. Add Jim Walsh to the list. I called the bank the check is supposedly drawn from and they confirmed the fraudulent check– said they have had others calling with the same info. it’s sad.

I didn’t receive a check from Al Synder but I do have a suggestion as too how he can possibly be caught. I’m sure that the authorities don’t consider these situations a priority unfortunately so it would be up to citizens or a “private detective”.

A suggestion to catching him would be::

I am very familiar with Western Union and Moneygrams I send them to my brother. And when you send a money transfer it goes to a zip code area.

For example if it’s requested that you send the money transfer to 60652 the person receiving the money can pick up the money at any Western Union or Moneygram location within that zip code.

Before sending the money ALL the locations within that zip code must be informed that anyone picking up the exact amount sent should notify authorities or in some cases hopefully they have surveillance.

I think this would work because due to the amount he chooses to send, how many people send off set amounts such as 10% of 4,975 with would be 497.00 unless they are paying a bill.
This suggestion to the authorities or even when done by an individual might help to “nab” this guy. Good Luck I sympathize with all of you.

This is a time will there will be many preying on those struggling.

Just a little follow up! I see Al is still up to his old ways. I contacted my bank and they are willing to let me make payments back. The authorites have not had any leads. This is rediculous. I also checked into a lawsuit against him, but him or his companies are nowhere to be found. I guess we all have to just suck it up and pay the price for our mistakes in this situation. WAMU Bank can’t even find this person.

I also was scammed by Mr.Snyder and the check was from Upland Product Development. I just got access to the internet so unfortunatly I got whamed before it was to late! I am a single mother of three children and work very ,very hard for our money and I am in so much trouble & debt because of this I don’t know what to do now!! I am the only one in my area that I know of that has received this from that SOB!!!!!!!! I am about to lose my house because this put me so far under!!! I think that SOB Snyder should really have to pay those of us back that has cashed the check or that has any money out at all!!! This really isn’t funny when you mess up peoples lives, and their chldren’s college money!!

I am so happy I found this web site. I am also a single mother and the money would have come in handy. I wish someone would find Mr Al Snyder and rip both of his arms off and beat him with them.

I, too, received a check from the infamous “Al Snyder”. It was dated 10/03/08 and valid for 30 days. It had all the same requirements as all the others have had. It came from Upland Product Development in Upland, CA. I also received one from ‘Al Snyder” last spring. The first one I destroyed, but this is going to the authorities. Too many people have been hurt by this person’s greed. I sure hope they catch this guy–SOON!!

I recieved a check in the mail from this mr snyder and it had the upland corp name on it. I too looked at the addreess they gave me and saw mr snyders picture. I’m very sceptical and did not want to lose money so i looked up the awardchecks .com and got this site. I was glad to find out that this was a scam before i did anything with the check. I really hope that they get this guy. I too looked up the address from the contactgrantbrobers.info site and found no listing for this uls finance company that was listed on the site. I will be contacting my authorities about this as well. thanks again you saved me alot of heartache.
