This company is truly a rip off they are listed on the better businees burea but they say that address is undeliverable on there, but this company contacted me and my husband telling us that we were approved for a personal loan of $5000 and that we was referred to them. so they told us to send $500.00 to secure the loan to there insurance company. so we did and not thinking about this .they when they called us they said the company decided not to give us the loan due to the credit score which they should have already figure that out when we was referred to them .
so please dont ever get caught in nothing like this ever. when you apply for loans and be referred out like we were to some one like this because you will get caught up and this is a lesson me and my husband had to learn. so beaware of this company and dont send them any money and make the mistake we did ,even though they say they will refund the money but it will take 14-20days for it to return by regular mail to us.

You fell victim to one of the oldest scams out there called the Advanced Loan Fee Scam. Any time a company requires you to send money in advance for a loan they are a scam. You didn't give details, but you most likey were told to send the money to one of their associates in Canada by MoneyGram. Because they are in Canada the chances of them getting caught are zero.
The worse news for you is that you are NEVER going to see the money you sent again. You can wait 20 days or 20 years it is never going to come. They told you 20 days because in 20 days they will be long gone and when you try and call them again they will have moved on.
Consider yourself lucky that this was only for $500 and treat it as a lesson learned.
