Bellwood Financial Group Scammed me off of $948.00 Ft Lauderdale Rhode Island
(Day 1 0ct 1 2008) This so called company approved me for a $5000.00 dollar personal loan at 6% flat rate no payment till July 2009. They asked for a collateral payment of $930.00 plus a money gram fee of $14.16. "Jason Green" sent me the contract I read it over and signed it and faxed it back to them. He said he needed get the signed contract in order to give me further instructions.
He calls me back when he receives the fax, and say's you should receive the $5000.00 dollars on 2 October 2008 before 5pm EST. he then gives me instructions to send the collateral via Money Gram to a lady named Brenda Garrette in Halifax, Canada, and to call him back with the money gram reference number. I called him back with the number and he said that I was all set and that I should get my money Oct 2 2008 before 5pm est.
(Day 2 Oct 2 2008)
At about 1:30PM est a guy named Stewart Mackey (Customer Service Manager) gave me a call and said there was a problem with my application, and that I needed to give them an additional $930.00 to secure the loan. I said no this is a scam I want a refund. He was then very disrespectfull and I had told him that I was going to report hime to the Better Business Bureau, FBI, Loacl Police Department the whole nine yards. I also told him that I was going to get a lawyer, and he said "get a lawyer waste your money on a laywer." He also said that i had bad credit, and I replied ' I don't have bad credit I just bought a house.... ect... he just kept being so disrespectful ,and said that he'll reimburse me the money by 28Oct2008 plus a inconvinience rebate of $200.00.
I have my money gram receipt, and a lady received my money somewhere in Toranto Canada, not Halifax? At 9:25AM EST on Oct 2 2008.I also have other evidence)
This person also said that he had HUNDREDS of people that he is dealing with (RIPPING OFF, STEALING FROM)

I guess Bellwood Financial's number is no longer in service? No website I tried looking them up and calling. All you hear when you call is goodbye!! I guess these people are really going to get away with this crime. No one seemed to have done anything? When I first wrote my complaint there were about 2 or 3 compalints. As a result of no one doing anything look at all the inocent people it has effected. People losing there homes, apartments,cars and even food for there children? Does anyone care that these criminals are still out there probably planning there next scam!!!!

My Fiance spoke with Jason Green after the fact he ripped us off. My Fiance has a cousin in Ft Lauderdale, and he actually went over to the Galleria Building and he found out Bellwood Financial doesn't exist!!! If anyone lives driving distance and still has any doubt that this company is in fact a scam, just go and see for yourself. We even called the Galleria BLDG and spoke with the BLDG manager and security guard and they say this company does not exist, and that a different Company rents the location Jason Green claims he's in.
These people need to go to Jail so that every morning they wake up they can think of all the innocent people, mothers, fathers, children, young, eldery, that are being effected due to the money they are stealing. They deserve to Rot in jail and never come out.
If I get any new info I will post it. If anyone else get's any new info please post it, hopefully someone that cares can help all of us reads this. Good luck to all!!!
