Rep told me I was approved for a loan up to $5,000. And said i needed to send first month installment of $190. And then once I made the payment via Western Union, I was told I needed to send $350 to cover taxes. Idiocally I believed him. I came up with 250 and ended up sending him $238 due to a $10 charge from Western Union. The following morning when my loan was supposed to go through, I was told that the loan was going through for even more and that i needed to cover the difference and would be refunded. Again very stupid of me.. I sent even more. And you guessed it, was asked to send more because the loan was going through electronic transfer at a higher amount. At this point I was pissed! Told them that wasn't going to happen and that if I couldn't get the loan processed I wanted to cancel. At this point I was told that i would only recieve the $190 that I intially sent. After complaining for 30 minutes I was directed to the "Cancellation department" and was told that I needed to send $150 for cancellation charges. Still haven't received anything from them, a normal company would able to process a cancellation very quickly within a day or so. A normal company would be able to credit those charges to what I've already paid them. HUGE SCAM!! And I feel for it, lesson learned. Number was (360) 362 5970.
