Advance fee loan scams and fraudulent loan sites.
by MaybeScammed Thu May 08, 2014 5:35 pm
So I had applied for a loan on lending tree.com (yes I know don't shoot me) Received an email from a company saying they would lend me $7000 and I needed to fill out the documents and send them in along with id and a void cheque.

After I see the paper work it all looks legit and they tell me it is a secured loan and need the first 5 months payments $748.15. I don't have the best credit so I can understand this. I fill out the paper work fax them proof of employement and id.

Next day there phone system is down and I cant get a hold of anyone, finally mail them saying I will contact the proper authorities if no response is given and get an email and phone call back.

I have decided to not go through with the loan but now I am worried since they have my information. Please help and tell me what you think.

If there is a way of me attaching the loan agreement on here I will, just not sure how. The agreement is 7 pages and trust me looks very official.

Thank you all for any responce or suggestions.

New website, only registered for a year and uses whoisguard to hide the name of the owner.
This 'business' doesn't appear to be a registered business.

Please DO NOT tell the scammer he is posted here.

http://www.proactivelendingsolutions.com is a fake site. The telephone numbers do not match the claimed locations. One US number is actually a Magic Jack number which no legitimate lender would use.
The application page is not secure and most likely used for phishing personal information.
Do not send these scammers any money and most important contact your bank NOW and let them know exactly what has happened. These criminals may try to gain access to your bank account.
The website http://www.proactivelendingsolutions.com was first registered 28 April 2014.

The following is proof of the scam:
they tell me it is a secured loan and need the first 5 months payments $748.15.

It is illegal for a company to ask for a payment to get a loan. Legitimate companies may charge a fee but it will be included as part of the repayment spread over the life of the loan.
In this case they will steal the advanced fee and disappear and you will never get any money.

It is ALWAYS a scam
If the pet seller or shipper asks for money to be sent via Western Union, Money Gram, any brand of gift card. Walmart To Walmart , Zelle , PayPal friends and family option, or mentions Cameroon
