Grant Proposal for Jack’s Consumer Awareness Portal (“JCAP101″)
Introduction
My name is Jack Wylie and I am a senior who retired from the Private Security Profession in Texas. As a senior, I have dedicated a portion of this portal to seniors because I know from first-hand experience that they are more vulnerable to fraud and exploitation.
JCAP101 is dedicated to its mission of Informing, Educating, and Empowering consumers and investors against the increasing threats posed by Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices. As we strive to enhance our services and reach a broader audience, we seek grantors who share our vision and can support our initiatives through funding.
Mission Statement
At JCAP101 , our core mission is to:
- Inform consumers and investors about the risks associated with Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices.
- Educate consumers and investors on how to recognize and avoid these threats.
- Empower consumers and investors with the knowledge and resources needed to protect themselves and make more informed decisions.
Site Content
JCAP101 serves as a comprehensive resource hub for consumers and investors, offering a wealth of information gleaned from reputable federal regulatory authorities such as:
- Federal Trade Commission (FTC)
- Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC)
- Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB)
- Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)
- and others
By aggregating and categorizing crucial information from regulatory agencies into a single platform, JCAP101 empowers users to navigate the complex world of consumer protection and investment decisions with confidence. JCAP101 acts as a one-stop shop for accessing vital knowledge, enabling individuals to make informed choices about their purchases and investments while avoiding potential scams and deceptive business practices. Most importantly, JCAP101 remains completely free and accessible to all, eliminating any barriers to accessing essential information.
Why do we aggregate content directly from Regulatory Authorites?
JCAP101 prioritizes information directly from Federal Regulatory Authorities, such as the (FTC), (CFTC), (CFPB), and (SEC), over mainstream media outlets. This ensures that our users receive accurate, unbiased, reliable, and legally sound information. These agencies are entrusted with protecting consumers by monitoring financial markets and ensuring protection from deceptive business practices. By directly accessing their content, JCAP101 empowers users with legally grounded and actionable information, enabling them to make informed decisions and avoid scams.
Knowledge is Key in your Defense Against Fraud and Exploitation
Uninformed consumers, especially seniors, are often prime targets for unscrupulous fraudsters who exploit their lack of knowledge to perpetrate scams. These criminals use deceptive tactics, such as phishing emails or fake websites, to impersonate trusted authority figures, luring individuals into revealing sensitive information like passwords and credit card numbers.
As a result, unsuspecting consumers may suffer significant financial losses, while the perpetrators benefit from their deceitful actions. This cycle not only harms the victims but also perpetuates a broader environment of distrust and insecurity in online transactions, highlighting the critical need for consumer education and awareness to combat such fraudulent schemes.

- Computer Hardware and Software Updates
