PLEASE do not communicate with any person from this "company".
My boyfriend approached me with this loan opportunity, to which I regretfully agreed. When he first told me he had been pre-approved for a $5,000 personal loan I was hesitant because he said that David Norris had requested a "deposit" on the loan to be paid via cashier's check or Western Union. I don't have any experience with personal loans and did not even know the red flags to be aware of, but I was uncomfortable with this method of payment because as I understood it, once the funds are wired there is no way of tracing or disputing them if the contract was not upheld. Mr. Norris assured me that the contract protected both parties involved, and I told my boyfriend that if he was comfortable with the arrangement that I would support his decision.
Still, I ignored my instincts and agreed to pay the roughly $900 it cost to set up the transaction and the wiring fees.
