Don't fall for this scam!

I also fell for this SCAM when I was notified by Shantelle Hartford that I was approved for a 10,000 loan however I was high risk so I had to pay $1,000 (10% down payment upfront). I was not able at that time to find any negative reports on this company and had seen that they have a business ID and federal id #. So I did send my money via Moneygram (on 8/27/07) payable to Brenda Totee. The money was supposed to be in the account the following day b/w 3-5 pm. Of course it was not and when I called them, they told me to call back the following day and speak with Barbara in Accounting.

Of course, I did and this rude and nasty person Barbara stated that my account had been put on hold since I had applied with another company. When I told her this is not true she told me to contact my creditors and see why they are stating this then! I said "Who is reporting this?" Of course she refused to tell me and got VERY rude and said I was defrauding their company!!! I paid them not the other way around!!!

Since this was a lie, I demanded my money back since this is obviously a scam, and that I will report them to the BBB, Attorney general, banking department AND the authorities. She did not care and said to do what I had to do. I have contacted the BBB, banking department, authorities, and the attorney general. So far, the BBB has stated they cannot be of any help! Has anyone had success getting their money back or had any kind of positive resolution in this case?
