Has someone offered you a huge sum of money or a valuable consignment? It's a 419 or advance fee fraud - find out how they work, and what to do to be safe.

:cI have been in touch with both of them for a loan. But I can't validate good or bad. If you know where I can get a loan post it!

Withouit researching those details I am pretty sure they will be found to be scams, if you need a loan, we are generally not qualified to provide financial advice so may I suggest talking to a local bank or credit union, online loan dealers will in almost all cases turn out badly for you.

BTW, the "almost" is incase there does happen to be an honest online loan dealer, I have never heard of one but cant say there isn't such a person.

Hi Greadogs, when posting, it always helps to post the full email you received (preferably with full email headers so we can se where they are emailing from), along with the senders email address and and phone numbers.

Remember, if it seems to good to be true, then it is.

Hi greatdogs.

The 1st question I would ask is - who made the first contact? If they sent an unsolicited email to you, then it is 99.9999999% scam.

Without seeing the emails themselves it is hard to 100% certain so if you can post them here please do so.
