The Sunmark Financial Group And Fairfax Lending Alert Fake websites , compare the wording ...DONT USE THESE F*#%& ARE SCAM ARTISTS Kansas City Missouri

1. Any BUSINESS website that does not list a physical business address and/or listed business telephone# should be avoided. The website in question of Sunmark Financial has absolutely ZERO contact information listed.

2. The domain registration is a private registration on the "hostmonster" network and the date of registration is 3/2007 which is the date this scam originated. I have said this before and took some heat for it, but ANY business who uses private domain registration should be avoided. NO reputable business uses private domain registration, ESPECIALLY a "financial institution".

You could file a lawsuit on the hostmaster and/or serve a subpoena for the domain owner's legal name and contact information.

NEVER send money to ANYONE without checking them out REALLY good.

Jim/Mike,

The very obvious RED FLAG here is that you sent the payment to a PERSON, NOT a BUSINESS. The second red flag is that you were sending the money to CANADA.

There is no such thing as "insurance" to guarantee a personal loan. It simply does not exist.

Advance fee loans are ILLEGAL everywhere in the United States. ANYONE wanting you to use payment services like Western Union, Moneygram, etc. should be avoided as NO legitimate business uses these services. The only exception to this is utility and phone companies who allow payments from existing customers to be made with these services, but the payment goes to a COMPANY name, NOT an individual.

I suggest you get the FBI Financial Crimes Division involved in this.

I would like to report a fraud case transacted on May 2nd 2007. Browsing the Internet I found what looked like a legitimate website offering loans and applied with some basic information. My credit is not that great so I was happy was I was contacted a few day later by a Mr. Peter McCarthy of The Sunmark Financial Group out of Kansas City, Mo saying that I have been approved for a 15, 000 dollar loan.

The catch was it was secured through investors and I had to send them 1700.00 dollar security through Moneygram to the insurance holder named Christine Reed in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.

He assured me that I would receive my monies within the next 24-48 hours. The following day I received a message from a Mr. Mark Price stating that I had now been re-assed and the insurer had now rejected my application. So I contacted Mark and he said the only way I could now get the loan was to come up with another 1300.00 dollars? I said No way it was hard enough to come up with the original 1700.00 which some of it I borrowed from my family. So I refused and asked for my money back and also I was very upset and expressed to Mark what kind of a bind he put me into.

Mr. Price said for my inconviences he will add a 400 dollar fee to the 1700 that they will return to me for a total of 2100 plus my 34.00 sending fee, the only catch is that I would not receive it until May 25th which is due to the pay cycle of the insurance company ?? I had been checking with them a couple of times a week or two after and they assured me my money will be sent to me on there promise date. Bottom line I have been trying to contact them for the last 10 days and no one answers and returns any messages I leave them, after looking at the rip off websites and the BBB I understand now that I have been scammed out of my money. I would like a refund-partial? but I know it is not Moneygrams issues maybe in the future the could be more stringent laws and prosecutions for these thiefs. I was desperate at the time and am in a huge bind now with money more then ever. Listed below is information about the transaction hopefully this will help in catching these theifs and preventing other victims of losing there hard earned money that are also in a bad situation too
