Buxton Brokerage Jillian Munroe I applied for a personal loan, approved by this company, contracts faxed Dakota Dunes, South Dakota
Iwanted to try and borrow money. I searched the internet and found Buxton Brokerage. I did not have to give my social security number, only my name, date of birth. 2 days later,I was contacted with a message on voicemail stating that I was approved for a personal loan. I called he back. She, Gillian, asked me how much I wanted, $5,000.00 0r $7,000.00. I said $7,000.00. The terms were: No payment on the loan for 4 months. Payments would be $171.00includes 8.5 percent. Sounds good, right? Also, she statedI was turned down from the bank and their investor needed $840.00 for the first 4 months up front. Due to limited money,I could not do that. She called the lender and called me back stating I could pay $685.00.(Western Union, only.) She faxed over the paperwork of contracts, approval letter and promise to deposit the $7,000.00 in my bank. I sent my license, voided check and profit/loss statement as requested.The money was promised to be in the account 4-8.5 hours, never happened. Then promised ny morning, never happened, promised, next day, never happened. Here's the kicker: Our money was sent to Canada to a Brett Monterio.
I investigated the company...No business license, called the South Dakota Police. They have a magic jack for a phone, can't be traced.
Today is day 5. Promises were made, I will not be seeing my money, but everyone will be seeing what kind of dirty work they are doing. Never let anyone tell you to send them money for money.
The FBI is also contacted. I am on to The Attorney General next.
Never take a loan from Buxton Brokerage. Investigate a company, first. I am sick!

Investigate What?

What exactly are the going to investigate?
You said it yourself they are calling from an Web based phone and can not be traced. If they have a domain it was probably purchased with a stolen credit card. Any address they gave you is fake or belongs to a company that has nothing to do with this. The names are fake, and the company name changes on a weekly if not daily basis. Oh and the MoneyGram again that is untraceable.
The thing you need to remember is that any time someone asks for money in advance to get a loan it is a scam. They will give you many legitimate sounding reasons such as insurance, but that is all part of the Advanced Loan Fee Scams.

It has been one month. Our children went without food, our van repair is not paid, we have sufferedbadly and I am not done with them!!! Last week we were told a certified check is coming back and we will receive the money in 5-7 days. Gillian said she was having her attorney call me and I will go to court for defamation of character. Now evertime I call...The mailbox is full. Please,I urge anyone scammed by thisfake company to please change your bank account. I believe they are after identity theft, also. So they take your money and they can take your identity. I wish we could all get together and have the fbi investigate them. I have a report sent to the fbi, waiting for a response. The local police department in SD cannot do anything, so don't waste a trip trying to find them. The attorney general may be able to help..Or internet police. I am waiting to be presented on my local news and The Today Show.I will be their worst nightmare. I am sorry for all of you who put trust in them. Hang in there, but do not expect your money unless we can catch them. I am working on this. Please also work with me. Call theLincolonSheriffs department, SD. maybe with so many calls, they will investigate more.
