I was on the internet on or about june 28,2006 looking at lenders for a personal loan. i filled a couple of forms just to see if i would get approved. now mind you these was respectable companies. i didn't know about any kind of scams.
Well on or about july 15,2006 we recieved a call. it was a company called quick max loans. they had said my husband was approved for a loan and asked if he would give them a call. so we did on july 17,2006.we had talked to a mr. rory driscoe. he had told us we was approved for a $6000.00 personal loan. we was glad and did not think anything about it.well he said he needed a little more information on my husband to get the paperwork done.and asked me to e-mail it to him.so i got the information. he needed his social security number,a copy of his last 2 check stubs,and a copy of his drivers license. so i sent him everything to his e- mail address. after he got all the information he called me back and said that we was definately approved. now in order to get our loan he asked if we had a cosigner or something collateral. i told him noso i figured we would'nt get the loan.then he siad there was another option, in order for us to get the loan we would have to a security deposit.which we would have to pay 3 months payment in advance. he had told us how much our payments,interest rate,and our monthly payments would be. not thinking i asked how much he would need. he said 816.00 would cover the first three months and we would not have a payment due until october. he told me he would call me and let me know how to send the money. well on july 21,2006 he called and asked me to send the money western union and gave me the instructions.
he told me to put fitzgerald bowen,688 yonge st.,toronto,ontaria,canada,m4y2b2. after i did that i was to call and give him the confirmation number. i did all that and asked him how he was going to send us a check. he said he would be sending it fed-ex and we would get it by july 26,2006.then he asked me to e-mail him the confirmation on the western union. since i did all this i have tried to call and even e-mailed mr.driscoe.i have not heard from him since.so i got a little worried and starting checking on some things.all my paper work they sent seemed so true.when i call the phone number it says welcome to quick max loans.i am so glad i did not have a bank account.i just hope no one else has to go thru what i experienced.believed me i have left them nasty messages telling them they messed with the wrong people.please let people know about loans on the internet.i wish now i would have known there was a place i could have looked.i would have never have done. post this all over the internet.
