Fairfax Lending Services Savings GONE!! Rochester New York
I applied for a loan through Fairfax Lending services and was told that I was initially approved for a $5000.00 loan. I was then told to secure the loan for a X amount of dollars. Two days later I was told that the lender backed out of the loan.
I was then told that there was a loan available to me for $10,000.00 and to secure the amount for an additional fee of X amount of dollars. I then went ahead and sent the Money Orders off to Jane Piller of Brooks Alberta Canada.
Well two to three days later I was contacted by a man by the name of Andrew Jennings informing me that there was a hold on the loan because of something on my credit report but he would not tell me what was on there. Andrew later on informed me that I could get a refund of all the money i sent to secure the loan plus an additional $200.00 that was to be deposited into my account on May 17, 2007.
May 17, 2007 No money was deposited back into my account and I called the Lending Service several times through out the day and got a voice recording of "Thank You; Goodbye". Since that time I have been trying to track down the people who scammed me out of my savings.

Teana,
Call who ever you sent the money gram through. Give them your gram # and ask if the other party has accepted the money yet. IF THEY HAVE, NOT CANCEL YOUR MONEY GRAM!
If they have accepted it, then yes- you are looking at a loss of your $1250 security deposit.
What you need to do now is contact all of your authorities. Local police, online FBI, and especially the Canadian authorities. You sent the money to canada and the US does not have jurisdiction over them.
To TRY, and I repeat TRY to get your money back:
Depending on who your insurance is, you might be able to file a claim with them stating you have a theft case.
Also, if you paid for your money gram with you bank's Debit card, you can try disputing the transaction. I did it, and they granted me my money back.
Here is the letter I sent them.
To whom it may concern:
I am writing to dispute this unauthorized transaction on my account in accordance with Federal Regulation E. This was unauthorized and my account was NOT to be charged!
Please refer to hundreds of victim's reports that were filed on Rip-off Report.com for this same instance.
The company who is responsible for this is (Enter your Scam Artist's companys name) . Their number is 888-673-4158 and fax 1-(866)
386-2288.
A represenative there is Rosa Rodriguez at extenson 997. Please REVERSE this charge in my favor and take actions to prosecute this company.
Sincerely,
You
