Avoiding Scholarship Scams

<p>deZEE... so... your original post said "...But to make sure I called the president of the company..." and now all of a sudden... you and the "president" of the company are personal friends? Interesting? And are you a Freshman who is applying for college scholarships? Could it be that you forgot your first post suggested that you didn't have a relationship with Cliff... or this company... and you found it by accident... only to discover the site is what your "personal friend" has been working on all this time?</p>

<p>Yes... I've seen Cliff's emails... I know what he claims... and frankly... he's an idiot and a hypocrit.</p>

<p>And.. as for his name being on the site... yes... he did register the name for Tom. I've registered domain names for friends too... but I've never used my technical abilities as a means to steal someone else's business.</p>

<p>Fortunately for the students... Cliff apologized and turned the site back over to Tom. Strange that it happened after FASTWEB and all the partners stopped sending traffic to the site and the pay-per-click money dried up while it was hijacked mode... but regardless... it's back on track now.</p>

<p>I had actually logged in here to let people know that the site had been returned to Tom and that a usefull tool was up and running again. I guess it was just a bonus to find your "illuminated" text. Thanks!</p>
