I also had been searching for a loan for my child to continue education in college. After a few days of filing out applications and being rejected I was contacted by a Noah Higgins that left me a message on my phone that I had been approved for a $6000 loan. I was desperate and anxious and returned that call (what a mistake). I returned the call to a Noah Higgins who stated that I was approved for a $6000 loan but I needed to provide a cash collateral deposit of $797.16 and would not be due until March for a payment of $265.72 @ 6 %. I took my paycheck being that I THOUGHT i would have a better turnaround and sent the money via western union to an individual named SHELLY ANN MALCOLM/JERMAINE MCFARLANE. Then was told to call to call back with the confirmation/control number and my loan would be funded the next day. Well now it the next day and I continuously checked my account only to find that a block had been placed on the account (thankk God). Now I was wondering what was going on, so I called the bank. No response, so then I call for some reason check my phone and guess what a message from someone named David stating there was a problem. Now I called back to customer service and I kept getting the run around until finally I spoke with David Paige. Now here is David with a story, there is a slight problem. Well yes, It was the same thing we contacted the lender and now they are not comfortable with your credit for you need to pay 5 mor months in advance and then we can fund the loan. Well now I realize what a mistake I made, this is a scam. I immediately told him now and demanded a refund. David Paige told me that he would contact the investor and let them know that I did not want to proceed and he would call me back. Hours went by and no phone call so, yes I called back. David then attempted to act as if he did not know me and then he stated he was waiting for a response back from the lender and would phone me back. I'm still waiting as I'm typing this story. I will be obtaining legal advice and seeking prosecution with these individuals. So all that have been scamed by this Westchester Equity gGroup lets for a union and fight for our money back because we all sacrificed monies that we did not have expecting to gain more out of it. We did not deserve this and will not stand for it. Anyone have any suggestions or answers? Lets prosecute!
