About Ghost Money

How it works

    Useful little thing. Paste an ad, it matches it against 17 numbered issues and says unknown instead of guessing, and every issue cites the actual IRS or DOE page. The line about SSN, grant codes and upfront fees is the whole lesson in one sentence. What if there was a sample scam ad I could click to see a result instantly? I'd send that link to my parents.
