Complaint Review: Galaxy Funding

My wife and I were contacted by a company called Galaxy Funding. We were online seeking an unsecured loan since she has been out of work and were short on cash. We received a loan agreement and were approved for the loan. We signed and faxed back the loan agreement. There was however, a catch. We would have to pay the disability insurance, unemployment insurance, etc... up front. It didn't seem unreasonable. We sent $800.00 via Western Union and surprise, surprise, the loan never proceeds never came. We were told we since the loan fell through(after we were approved) we would get our $800.00 refunded in thirty business days. Outrageous! We told them this was unacceptable and they said they MIGHT be able to get it back to us in 15 working days. We have STILL not seen anything! We filed a complaint with the NYC Better Business Bureau and they said the company is not returning their calls. The phone number is now disconnected from our service area. My next step is to file a complaint with the NY State Attorney General's Office. Make no mistake, the people at Galaxy Funding are scum! They STOLE $800.00 from my family a month before Christmas! For all I know the money we Western Unioned was handed to a terrorist since the private lender was allegedly based in Toronto Canada. If you get a call from Catherine Peterson at Galaxy Funding, do yourself a favor: hang up, or they will burn you too! The people are the most despicable form of scum on the planet. How any of them sleep at night is beyond reason!
