            Fortitude Security on their website claims they provide licensing services for Class D & Class G Florida security licenses. The Fortitude Security website accepts payments of credit or debit cards to obtain your personal security license. After accepting payment, you are granted access to the login portal. However, when you try to take the course, the information is unavailable. I reached out numerous times via telephone to the Fortitude Security phone number available with no success. I have not been contacted or was not able to get ahold of anyone. Upon further investigation, it is my conclusion, this company is accepting money online with the false claim of licensing individuals and is a fraudulent operation.

            They are scammers don't go there they will make it very different to contact them and won't give your money back. We constantly called everyday for him to tell us to call back next week and even threatened to *** me for leaving a bad review because I didn't get my money back and he kept lying about different funerals and the site not working to get the test done. He is still accepting money on the site and not providing the service no one picks up any of the numbers on Google,their website or ******** their emails don't work either. It's a terrible place and they need to be shut down for scamming people and hiding bad comments because they are telling the truth.
