Is Usafisorg true or fraud?

In my point of view its fraud.However, there is a real Diversity Visa Lottery Program, and there are countless websites offering to handle the entering process for you for a fee. These aren't necessarily scams per se, meaning they will do what they say - which is to apply for you to be in the DV lottery. The catch here is that entering the DV lottery is absolutely free if you do it yourself, while these companies charge hundreds of dollars simply to fill out a piece of paper for you and mail it to the USCIS. Many charge you, and you'll never hear from them again.

Did you enter the DV lottery program through USAFIS? If you don't remember paying them to enter you into the DV lottery program, you can be 100% certain that it is a scam. If you entered the DV lottery program, the USCIS will notify you by mail, and you don't need to worry about paying USAFIS anything anyway.

Is power 4 patriots a scam?

I have not read the book or looked at the product. From the advertising, it appears that it will give you some level of guidance on putting up renewable power systems. I suspect there are better resources out there. Some may even be free. I do think the advertising is misleading. There is no secret code to putting up renewable energy.

Power4patroits is a complete and total SCAM. I have been in the Power business for over forty years. I can tell you for a fact. No one can build a system like he talks about. For the price he quotes. To power a house. Most houses require at least 100 amps to run. His system can't even come close to that and his amazing 400 watt. Windmill generator. Won't even run your coffee pot. Don't believe me just look at the back of your pot. Even the cheap ones require 800 watts.

Is capitol university fraud?

I would not call it a fraud, however the institution does not have a regional accreditation, which is the most important accreditation. In addition, the school does not appear to be recognized by the College Board. As such, the coursework completed, and the degrees offered, may not be recognized by other accredited colleges and universities, as well as many employers. Personally, there are too many highly recognized regionally accredited schools out there to be involved with this institution. When choosing a college or university, I would strongly recommend you choose from the institutions that have a regional accreditation.

  • Before using the site, check out the security/encryption software it uses.
  • Make sure you are purchasing merchandise from a reputable source.
  • Do your homework on the individual or company to ensure that they are legitimate.
  • Try to obtain a physical address rather than merely a post office box and a phone number, call the seller to see if the number is correct and working.
  • Send them e-mail to see if they have an active e-mail address and be wary of sellers who use free e-mail services where a credit card wasn't required to open the account.

  • Check with the Better Business Bureau from the seller's area.
  • Check out other web sites regarding this person/company.

If you marry someone who was here on an expired passport and they gave him his greencard then he left and you don't know where he is will you get in trouble for marriage fraud if you report him?

You said "expired passport." Did you mean expired visa? The U.S. doesn't care much about expired passports issued by other countries. If he was issued a green card, he was living here legally, assuming that no fraud was committed in obtaining it. I can't imagine that you can get into trouble for what he did, assuming you committed no fraud in helping him get his green card. I suppose that someone might say that the marriage was entered into solely for the purpose of obtaining residency status for your husband, but that should have come up BEFORE the green card was issued, not now. Having said all that, I wonder what exactly you are going to report, and to whom?

How do you file fraud charges on?

You need a court order to change a birth record. You haven't provided much detail but you will need to provide an account of how and why the false information was provided for the child's official record of birth. You should visit the probate and family court and ask to speak with an advocate, if possible, or make an appointment with an attorney who can review the situation and explain your options.

Is one part of a verbal contract enforceable if another falls under the Statute of Frauds due to it not being performable within a year?

Generally speaking, a failure in any of the provisions of a contract voids the whole contract, unless otherwise stipulated in the contract. However, there is a famous cliche' that might provide some guidance here, namely;

"A verbal contract is not worth the paper it's written on."

Meaning that it is usually best for ones reputation to strive to settle any disputes that arise over verbal contracts in as equitable a fashion as possible--by extrapolation. Do your best to pretend that you are in the other guy's shoes, we say.
