Single mother of a 4 month old, have bad credit, trying to get some kind of loan to help us move closer to try to work things out with the babys father.
I was contacted by Charles Pearson at Harbor Lending Group and was told that they were able to approve me for a loan but because of my past bankruptcy that they would need 6 months payments that equal $911 up front as collateral.
I guess I'm stupid but it made sense to me.
Then I was told that I need to sent the $910 to a woman in Canada by MoneyGram, I expressed my concern with this but I was assured that the reason it was being sent to an individual is because it is a wealthy person that is investing in their company rather than in stocks and bonds..
Again, I must be stupid, it sounded ok to me. So I sent it.
Then I get a phone call the next day to tell me that the money was recieved by this individual but they ran my credit again and because it is poor, they require an additional $910 to secure my loan, thats when I realized this wasn't right.
So I checked online and sure enough it is a scam, so I am now out $910, have no money to move with, have 10 days to be out of the house I'm in and have no family in the area to help... And I have a 4 month old baby.
