I was contacted by a Jeff Adams saying that I had been approved for a 5000 loan. I was obviously excited considering I was in desperate need of the money. The catch was, because my credit score was only a fair rating, the company that was going to lend me the money would need 8 months in advance. The total would be $930.00. I had to borrow this money from a friend. Even though I had a gut feeling about wiring the money to some woman named Sheila Miller, I did it anyway because I was so desperate.
The next day, a man named David Taft called and said that the company that was going to provide me a loan wanted an additional 8 months payment and that they reserved the right to do that. I got very angry and told him that if I had $1860 handy in my bank account that I wouldn't be trying to get this loan. I then told him that I would call him back.
After about thirty minutes, I called him back and told him I wanted the refund. He said that I would get the refund on Dec. 27, and I asked why it would take so long. He then told me that it would take so long because I would have to wait for the companies 'billing cycle'. That made me furious, due to the fact that I had gotten them the money so fast.
Now, I'm still in need of money and i owe my friend $950. A little advise, NEVER wire money to ANYONE.
