I discovered an advertisement for a site called Credit Relief Act (creditreliefact.com) that appears, in my opinion, designed to intentionally confuse and mislead consumers into thinking there is a government program to reduce debt.
The advertisement I saw said: Obama Credit Bailout Plan See if You Qualify for the Obama Credit Reform Bailout Plan See Now.
The site does mention it is not a government program but only in lighter text in the fine print and one short sentence on the FAQ page. Unless you went hunting for that information it would be easy to overlook.
The Fine Print
The fine print on the bottom of the site gives us the most information about what this site is all about. On the site the text is in a lighter color and all jammed together. Let me break it apart for you to make it clearer.

It appears to me that this site is a lead generating site primarily for debt settlement companies. I came to that conclusion based on the content on the ‘Program’ page. On that page it says that debt can be reduced by up to 70% and monthly payments are reduced. Outside of debt settlement, bankruptcy would be the only other tool able to accomplish those results.
I did get a chuckle out of the solution, take advantage of the credit card companies and get credit relief.

Another Site on This Server Caught My Eye
Now let’s say the designers of the Credit Relief Act had not set out, in my opinion, to intentionally confuse or mislead consumers into believing there was a government program called the Credit Relief Act.
If so, how do you explain the site FTCFairCreditReportingAct.com which uses the logos of the Federal Trade Commission and Office of the Inspector General? See picture below and you will see the government logos in the lower corners.
This site also has an eligibility form on it and when I completed it I said I had no late payments and I had not experienced a denial for credit, surprise, I qualified for a credit repair forensic audit.

You are not alone. I'm here to help. There is no need to suffer in silence. We can get through this. Tomorrow can be better than today. Don't give up.

There are a couple of big clues on the site: It says that it’s not a government agency; and it says that by submitting your info, you are agreeing to be contacted by telemarketers. It’s right beneath the button where you submit your information. You really do need to read the print – it’s not even fine print!

WOW!!! I was so close to filling out the application. I have heard and seen the advertisements everywhere. I figured it was too good to be true. Thanks Steve.
Thank you, so helpful. Almost suck me in to. Great work and Thank you for sharing. a.v
Thanks, I almost fell for it too.
Thanks I almost called them.
wow i called then up the other day and gave them my information.. Yeah they look like a scam now.. I had the interview i called up and said i wanted to cancel and that i couldn’t afford the 201 dollars payments and getting out of debt in 3 1/2 years wow glad i saw this later on because the site looks legit after i called they said i wanted to cancel they tried to best to keep like lower the payment to 150. So i asked to make sure they don’t take any money out my account they said they wouldn’t and that the lady would call back next month wow. Thanks man..i will have to make sure the banks knows that this is a scam and i don’t get charged.

Like Asa, I am so glad I read this report of yours. Steven do you of any “true” debt bailout plans out there. Please if you do, kindly provide the info. This will be very helpful in helping get my life back on track. Regards
Emily,
Yes, bankruptcy. It is the only consumer debt bailout plan.
Steve
I’ve already been scammed by Freedom Fidelity and I posted on my 3 cents.com and they put besides it the http://www.CreditReliefAct.com. Again a scam.
i am so glad i saw ur eport i almost fell for this. is there a real way to fix ur bad credit without getting scamed or paying someone for something u can do on ur own. my guess is there is no quick fix.
