After calling a toll-free number requesting information on obtaining a loan even with bad credit, a gentleman named "Chris Rollox" called me. He informed me I was approved for a loan and asked for my fax number to submit some paperwork.
I received four pages on company letterhead stating "Metro Marketing Finance" and asking for a $300 deposit to receive $3,000. I sent the $300 via Western Union, whichj cost 30 dollars. They "promised" a 3-10 day turnaround.
This company continued their ruse. I called after the tenth business day and they were surprised that my loan had not been processed. A second person named "Anthony Walker" called my for final processing of my loan and asked whether I would like my loan sent via certified mail or TLR credit into my bank account. I chose the mail option. After another ten days passed, I called Mr. Rollox again and he stated that the letter will be mailed the next day. That was the last contact I had with anyone from this alleged company.
I have contacted the FTC and local authorities. I plead with you... Do not send ANY money to ANYONE promising loans for bad credit. Do yourself a favor. Just bite the bullet, work on fixing your credit, and in the long run you will be better off.
