Protect your business
When you’re looking for Government grants, keep in mind that:
- You should never be asked to pay money for information about Government grants – be wary of websites that charge you for grant information or services
- Paying money for grant services will not buy you special consideration, all Government grants are awarded on merit
- While you can pay for help with writing grant applications, it’s important to choose a trustworthy provider
Make sure you are using a Government website
Scammers will try to copy government websites by using:
- ‘Official’ looking images and logos
- Misleading URLs (e.g. www.govgrantsofficial.com.au)
If you’re unsure, remember that official Government websites use .gov.au in their URL.
