What can I say other than I got the "wool pulled over my eyes". I recently moved to arizona from michigan and needed some help with my finances so i filled out an app with credit.com being that my credit is not that great in the mid 600s.
I recieved a phone call a couple weeks later from this "pinnacle corp" company saying that they recieved my info from credit.com and i could recieve a loan but due to not so great credit i would be required to put an insurance deposit down that would acrue interest at a rate of 3.75% over the life of the loan and i would recieve it back at the end of the term.
It turned out that the original deposit was not enough they wanted more and more and more. All the while i talked to four different ppl during this process. The final two guys were a Mr. Ron Fletcher (Sr. Analyst or something like that) and a Mr. David Rozanni (supposedly a "lender" or "broker").
Now let me say that this is not a rinky dink operation. They have a company phone directory setup with vociemail and extensions, paging everything a legit company has. The address and location is accurate and real too.
So the loan was supposed to be wired or sent to me via a check overnite. Obviously never recieved the wire transfer i requested.
I've filed with the FTC and also consumer protection. Looking for more help or info on obtaning the money i lost. I've read similar "Pinnacle" scams, not sure if this one is related or not. It does have the same MO.
