liz crenshaw is here with the details. >> hi, liz. >> we begin tonight with the federal trade commission shutting down bogus marketers who allegedly misled consumers. the ftc says the company worked behind the name grant connect and is accused of using pictures of president obama, vice president biden, to bolster claims its grants were affiliated with the u.s. government. the ftc says marketers also pitched sham products including useless credit cards, fake work at home opportunities, and worthless dietary supplements. the ftc offers these tips by the way to avoid grant scams. never pay any money for a free government grant if you have to pay it's not free and it's not real. check the correct names of the government agencies. just because the caller says they're from one agency doesn't mean it really exists. take your time. scammers often pressure people into sharing their bank account information so they can steal your money. always keep your account information private. and simply eliminate telemarketing calls you don't want all together. don't forget to register your number on the do
