On may 23th i was contacted by a woman who claimed to be approving my personal loan. Her name was evelyn scott. She informed me that my request for a 6,000 loan was approved. She sent me a contract
explaing all the details. She informed me that a collateral payment of 984.97 was required to secure the loan.
I sent the money via a wire transferon 5/27/08. I sent the money to judith stewart in riverview, NB Canada. I sent her 980.00 plus spent 14.16 on the money transfer. I was promised my loan on the next business day by 5 P.M. I received a phone call on 5/28/08 requesting an additional amount of the same
measure to secure my loan. I sent another wire transfer in the same amount on 5/28/08 with the promise i would receive my money again by 5 on the next business day. On 5/29/08 i received another phone call stating that my lender had backed out of the loan and that the company had found another lender who was willing to supply me a 12,000 dollar loan. With the same payments just a longer term.
I was instructed that i needed to make another payment with another 14 months collateral payment of 1960. The loan company i needed to come up with at least some of the money and they would cover the rest of the
payment to secure the loan. I called back and told them i could come up with another 980 plus 14.16 for wire transfer fees.
I then was concerned for my transaction and started investigating this company. A little to late. I could not find them anywhere except the website information. I decided to call a lawyers office that was located in the same building as the supposed loan office. The lady who answered the phone then informed me that this was a scam and that i needed to contact the charleston police department.
