I first became familiar with these organized criminals after responding to ad in local free circulator. They guaranteed a minimum of $5000 in government grants. After speaking to them by phone I found that a fee of $386 would be charged in order for them to "assist you applying for the grants you'd qualify for." A college student in need of $2000, I figured $386 wasn't a bad trade off for $5000!

I was sent a questionaire about my ethnicity, family members, # of people living in house, interested career field etc.etc.

After several follow up phone calls (I was told they were compiling my report)to this "agency" and 3 months later, I recieved a packet in the mail. This packet contained a highly glossed black folder with dollar bills and partial image of the White House. Inside this folder was a list of different grants I was to apply for. As I browsed this list with slim hope, many given references were non working #"s, grants were no longer being offered or I didn't meet elgibility requirements. In short, DEAD leads!

I called Kensington to inform them of this. They ensured me that after getting three denials from three of their references with written proof of rejection I would be entitled to a full refund.

First it was like pulling teeth to get anyone to give letter of rejection. I did manage to get three letters, in which one writer told me I was about the 4th person whom he knew had been victimized by these people. I guess they requested letter also.

Tried to contact them regarding reciept of letters---U guessed it # was no longer working! To this day I'm still waiting hopelessly!
