ivan Levy arrested 3/30/2015----

A man who promised people across the country he could help them refinance their auto loans for a fee was arrested after officials said he failed to provide the service or refund their money. Ivan Levy, 55, was arrested Monday, according to a probable cause affidavit. Officials from the Florida Office of Financial Regulation and the Boynton Beach police began investigating Levy after nine people came forward saying he had taken their money and refused to give it back. Levy, the owner of Regency Financial Services LLC, uses at least two websites that promise to help negotiate auto loan refinancing for people who have poor credit or have fallen behind on car payments. The victims would go to either website — credit-yogi.com or carpaymenthelpcenter.com — seeking assistance to refinance.

A few of the victims had their cars repossessed while others are trying to manage their payments, according to the affidavit. Levy would tell them that he could help negotiate the terms of the refinancing for a $499 fee. He told them if the deal didn't go through, they could have their money back, the affidavit states. One victim from Louisiana told investigators Levy told her he had worked out payment plan with her car lender, and said to stop making payments to the original lender. Her lender called her shortly thereafter and said she was delinquent on her payments and that neither Levy nor anyone from his company had contacted them, officials said. Another woman said she hired Levy to help her refinance for lower auto loan payments. She paid him the fee but was denied refinancing. When she asked for her money back, Levy refused and her car was repossessed.

 Levy is in jail now. Let keep him there, We are urging all his victums to come forward bring a  class action lawsuit against him and get our money back.

As you have found out, this is a scam.

File a police report. I don't know if they can help you get your money back, but at least get the report filed. Do this right away.

Bring the scammer to small claims court. Hopefully you have proof of the deposit you made and the emails, text messages and any other communication with this so-called company.

For future reference, the only people that can modify your loan on a vehicle is the lender and you. A third party, like this one that scammed you, does not have the ability to modify the loan. Fortunately it sounds like GMAC recognized the scam and didn't cooperate with the scammer. If you gave personal information to this scammer, (passwords, account numbers etc) change the account numbers you gave to him. Protect yourself and your credit. Freeze your credit reports so he can't go on a spending spree with your data. Good luck.
