I am in tears. I trusted this person and company for a loan. He stated this was not a scam several times and that they were legitmate. I had to send 500.00 to them before they released my funds into my account.
Andrew Forrest promised yesterday Friday the 12th of November of 2010 , that the 8000.00 loan would be in my account in 1 or 2 hours after I sent the wire transfer. NOTHING.
Tried calling. No one answered. Have called several times. NOTHING. I do not understand why anyone would do this. I told him specifically that I needed that money before my other bills got paid for and he said the funds would be in before they took the money from other bills out and to not worry.
Andrew promised this SEVERAL times.
I do not know what to do. I am in negative balance with my bank because of this jerk. Can someone please help me ? I do not know where else to turn. There should be a way to get these people.
I have ALL my documents and contracts that I had to sign yet, if someone can help me please.
I am 26 year old female with a big trusting heart. This is so wrong to do this to someone even after I told Andrew I was scammed before. How can anyone anyone do this to someone ?

The other time I was scammed was not from a loan site, it was from a dating site and I trusted him and we were dating. It was my fault to trust him though. I am young ok, and I am very trusting and naive. But I learnt from that I just had no idea this was a scam because it was very real like he had everything set up perfectly.
I never had to get a loan before so I had no idea what it all involved and I thought it was really insurance that he wanted.
I am the innocent in this and not the monster I just hope people know that. I always was told I had a trusting and big heart, and people prey on that. I just think its rotten to do this to someone I just don't get how someone can do that to someone who desperately was in need of the money it wasn't like just a fun thing for me to do, he knew I needed it and still scammed me. I just don't know how some people can live with theirselves.
BUT as for me, I have to deal with this now on my own, and its hard because now I am in farther debt then I was before. I keep wanting to cry but that is pointless.
So please don't be harsh because I already feel awful as is. But I am reporting this I just hope they don't do this to someone else.

Of course it is a scam. He asked you to send him $500 before he would fund the loan. ANYTIME you have to pay upfront for a consumer loan it is a scam.
When you asked him if it was a scam, why did you think he was going to answer you honestly? Scammers prey on the desperate. You asked "why anyone would do this". They do it for the money. Its easy and for certain sick personalities, they enjoy the art of the scam.
I am stunned that you have been scammed twice. Why in the world would you continue to do the same thing over and over knowing that the end result is a loss of money to you?

I know I was scammed. But the phone # I called was to Transamerica Funding it had the extension to who I was talking to and the customer service, unfortunately after I wired the money out, I never was able to get anyone including Andrew on the phone.
Money was being send to a 3rd lender party, that's what he said. He said he could not get any loans in the US with my credit with it being poor since I was scammed before I even told him I was scammed before and I said I could not deal with that again and he assured me and promised me it was not a scam. HA!
I wonder how people like him sleep at night seriously?
Well someone from Canada was stepping in to give me the 8000 loan, name Anthony Johnson.
But I know now i was scammed. Is there anything anyone can do about this?
I know its highly impossible. But please do not trust these people I have all these papers I had to sign and what not and now I realize it was a scam.
The papers looked for real so that's why I believed this man. But I really hope no one accepts ANY offers or loans from Transamerica funding. ITS A SCAM!!!

Sorry, You sound good-hearted, but it sounds like you were scammed.
It may not even be the company you reported. Did you wire transfer the money? If so, where did you wire it to. This company is in Rosemont or Des Plaines IL.
NEVER EVER pay up-front for a loan or help to sell something. There are many versions of this scam, from personal loans to auto sales to time-share sales. Unfortunately, many desperate people are falling for these scammers.
Good luck to you in the future.
