My husband and I also fell victim to this company. We goggled Military loans and few days later got a phone call from David Quinn informing us a loan of $5000 had been approved. However, we had to send (5) payments up front to secure the loan in the amount of $800. Once they received the money and we faxed the paperwork back with all of my husband's info the money would be in our account the next morning.
The day after we wired the money to Natale Salsman in Oakville, Ontario we received a phone call from Marcus Riley. He told us because we had supplied fraudulent information on our online application we would need to send an additional $800 before they could purchase the insurance for this loan. At this point we were irrate and knew these people had just stolen our money. When I asked him what fraudulent info had been supplied he told me it was the question that pertained to credit card debt, that we had checked the box that stated we did not have any. I told him that info absolutely was correct, due to the fact neither my husband nor I have EVER owned a credit card.
We were given the choice of sending the additional money or having our $800 refunded on their next billing cycle date. That date was August 7. I spoke with him on the 7th to confirm the refund was being sent and I was told it had already left via Federal Express. It is now the 10th of August and needless to say we have not and apparently will not see that money again. When my husband called David Quinn this morning he asked him if he could give him the tracking number for Fed Ex and David Quinn said, "Sure let me get it for you", and hung up on him. I have not been able to get anyone to answer the phone now for the last four hours.
In the meantime, last week we met with a JAG attorney here on post, have filed a report with the local police dept, filed a report with Military Police on post who contacted CID, and have given all of the info to our ACS on post as well. I'm past the point of even being angry now, I'm just numb. My husband leaves for Iraq in less than two months, PROUDLY serves his country and fights for our freedom. And to know that people like these at Brimley Financial benefit from it absolutely breaks myheart!!! And not only are we out of the money we sent up front, but they also have all of our bank info (routing & acct. Numbers) my husband's SS#, copy of his driver's license and military ID. These rip-off artist's need to be put out of "business"!!
