Unfortunately, I have a relative (PIL) who has also now fallen victim to this scam. As much as I have taught them NOT to click on the first links or READ the URL for insight into which site is legit, they went through with this. I'm trying to figure out the best way to clean it up. the GE application hasn't gone through yet, as the relative had already started an application with GE. Then stopped, then searched for links a few days later, this site came up and they went through this (I know, its sound SUPER dumb). Now, the GE application hasn't begun with these con artists (four man operation in San Diego) and they are saying they need more information to get into the GE site - which technically they would if they needed to actually submit the application.
I hate these sort of sites. It's near the worst of the internet
