Fidelity Lending Group Company asked us to pay 1st 4 payments up front $1215 before sending the $10000 loan to our account. Delray Beach Florida

We were looking for a loan for bad credit. I had filled out information with a company called Fidelity Lending Group. They called and said that we had been approved for $10000.00 but I had to send $1215.00 via Money Gram or Western Union. They said when I sent the money they would then direct deposit the funds into our bank account.

They explained that they $1215.00 would go for paying insurance for the loan and that if I made my 5th payment on or before the due date that they would then apply the money paid upfront toward the balance.

I checked out phone numbers, references, addresses, etc. At the address they provided there were lending groups but this one didn't include a suite number. I had been speaking to a Scott Davis but when I checked the phone number out it belonged to a Stephen Harowicz with Equimark Lending Group and they were not sure if that company was legit.

The fax number shows to belong to global crossing local services, inc. I read on some other scams and as well as the others, I have to announce my name before the call will go through. Thank God we didn't send any money but I want to help others before they fall into this scam. They send a contract and told me to consult with an attorney so they make themselves sound really legitimate. BEWARE! IT IS A SCAM!

As I was told NO COMPANY WILL ASK FOR UP FRONT FUNDS! IT IS AGAINST THE LAW!
