A.S.A.P. Financial LLC Told me i would get a $10,000 loan if i gave a security deposit of $2021.40 up front before i get loan Milwaukee, Wisconsin
I was looking for a personal loan on the internet and applied to a few. I was contacted by this business called A.S.A.P Financial LLC. They asked me for all my personal information. My social security #, my drivers license #, bank account # and routing number, the address of my bank, etc. Then they asked me to fax over a copy of my drivers license, social security card. They faxed me back some papers on their business. They then had me sign an agreement on the last fax page and then faxed it back to them. They said in order for me to get my loan i had to pay a security deposit of $2021.40 because i was considered a high risk.
They said the lender i need to send the money to was in Toronto, Ontario. By the name of Isa Cooper. They said this person would call me back after they receive the money. Thankfully, I waited and asked family members about this and they looked up the information on this company. This company was legit in 2004 when it first opened, but in 2009 the company became delinquint in their file keeping up to date in the state of Wisconsin. There are persons that are using this company as a way to scam people out of money by telling them to give a security deposit in order to receive a loan. These people are preying on people like me that have gone through bankruptsy or just have bad credit and are trying to get money out of us that we do not have.

This a nothing more than a group of Canadian scammers pretending to be a loan company. It has nothing to do with the company you researched. They are merely pretending to be a company so you will send them untraceable cash. In reality, it's a few people with throwaway cell phones and Internet access.

That is enough information for a scammer to not only steal your identity, but they could also empty your bank account. If you traipse around the Internet divulging your critical personal info to anyone who asks, you're asking for a financial and legal nightmare. You need to restrict your applications to either local sources or well known online sources.
