My husband and I were told that we were aproved for a $6, ooo. 00 loan with an interest rate at 7%. The woman that I spoke with faxed us papers to sign for the loan that looked completely legite. We were told to faxa copy of our driver's licence, ss card and a voided check. We were then told that even though we were approved that we would have to send the first 6 months payments which was the amount of $1,100.00. I was told that we could send a check or money order by mail or that we could send it by a moneygram to Alberta, Bermingham Canada to a person named Allison Mayer. "Nadia" stated that if we sent it via moneygram that we would also be refunded the amount that it cost to moneygram the payment. I was then told that we would recieve our "LOAN" within 24 hours of talking to them.
The person I spoke with who called herself Nadia O'Brien told me that a customer service rep would be contacting me to make payment arrangements. About 2 days later I was contacted by a guy who called himself Gordy Kippler. He stated that we were still approved for our loan, but in order for the loan company to put insurance on the loan we would need to send an additional $1,100.00 to cover an additional 6 months payments. He also stated that if we no longer wanted to go forward with the loan that we could get our money back. He stated that we would not have to make a payment " I then called this "Gordy" and told him that I had sent the money and gave him the reference #. He stated that the money would be in our account within 3 hours of talking to him. Three days had went by and there was still no money deposited into our checking account, so I called them and asked them what was going on, and was told that their money wiring machine was down and that we would be sent a certified check by mail within the next 2-3 days. Well, as you have already guessed those days went by and still no money. I made several calls back to them and told them that if I did not recieve my money that I would get the better business bureau involved and my lawyer, well a couple of days later I could not get through their phone line and their website had vanished.
I have never in my life felt so taken advantage of and victimized by anyone. I do not trust anyone now. My husband and I are low-income and needed that loan for a down payment toward a home, but because of everything that has happened, we had to move and change our bank information, which should have never happened in the first place if these people would have been honest human beings. I honestly do not know how these people can live with themselves when they steal people's money from them. They need to know that they are taking food from children and other important things that we has people NEED to survive this crazy world. I hope that these people will be caught and punished to the fullest for the crimes that they have comitted. I pray that there is some way that we can get our money back and try to get our life back to normal. So to everyone who reads this be cautious and don't let them make you their next victim.
