I was contacted by a Paul Lang in March. He offered me a loan for the home I was trying to buy and said that the payments would be like $250 a month and that all I had to do was put down the first 6 months payments for the down payment. It totaled about 1400. I got that money and then I called him and asked him where to send it. He told me to go to Western Union and send the money that way but said that I could not tell them what it was for. I sent the money to someone in Canada and then I was supposed to have the money in my account the next day.
Well the next day came and nothing was in there so I called him. I told him that I had not recieved the money and he said that I had to send more money.in total I sent him $3400 through Western Union. I sent that payment and then the next day came and no money. I tried to call and the line was disconnected.
They had it set up with the automated voice system and they sounded so real. I filed with the BBB and contacted the state but no one has been able to help me yet. I kept everything for these transactions and more.
