If you haven't entered a competition sponsored by the foundation, view this claim with suspicion. May I have your credit card or back account number to hold this scholarship. This is never a requirement for a legitimate scholarship offer. The scholarship will cost some money. Legitimate scholarship offers never require payment of any kind.
Free money is free money, unless it's a loan.
If it is a loan, any fees that may be charged, such as the origination and guarantee fees, are taken out of the disbursement check. A fraudulent company is more interested in getting your money. If a company makes these types of claims, the FTC says steer clear. Ask the company for the names and telephone numbers of other parents or students near you who have signed on with the company. Call these people and ask how they rate the company and its services.
