Welcome to Scamwarners Manessa57.

A loan company that doesn't have a bank account ? :shock:

That's like someone offering to drive me to London and asking if they can borrow my bike.

A corporate body can't use Western Union and even children have bank accounts.

Usually insurance is added to the amount of the loan and paid as part of the repayment schedule.

It's a scam and he won't ever send you any money and you'll lose whatever you send him.

CAR ADVERTS - If a car seller mentions escrow - he's scamming you Never ever for any reason pay anything until you have seen and inspected the vehicle
