financing backed by 100% collateral.  The collateral is provided by a
thrid party and the company pays 50% of the loan for the collateral

However, as it says on the last page, TIG is listed on the BBB site in
Nevada, and has a "satisfactory record" there. It is not a member of
BBB, though.

I hope this answers your question. Please contact me if you need any
clarification on this answer before you rate it.

In answer to your question yes.  TIG and Luczack is unfortunately one
big scam.  After 3 years and 250k later they never funded our venture,
nor refunded our money.  RUN!  For future advice, any legitimate fund
raiser who is successful will not take money upfront....If they are
real they can assess a venture before starting and will incurr their
own expenses to get it funded and recuperate when the deal is closed.
