TransCredit has shut down and apparently reappeared as Credit1 Financial. They were asking me to do exactly what everyone had done with TransCredit - send, via Moneygram 5 months advance payment, etc. Fortunately, I didn't do it.
When I called them this morning to get a status, I chose their phone menu item - customer service. The first recording I then got was "You have reached TransCredit customer service". I got a rep and asked why the incorrect company name and was told he'd check it out and for me to call back. Within 20 minutes the recording had been changed to Credit1.
If anyone needs any further info, I can be reached at (email deleted - see below). I already lost $450 to this type of scam out of Toronto and wasn't going to fall victim again.
