Filled out for a loan online. Sandra Bell from Global Financial Services called me, informing me that I approved for a loan for $5000. Further goes on to say that I did not approved for the conventional bank loan and that my loan was approved through a private lender. She continues to go over the terms of the loan and informs me that I have to secure my loan with $460. She sent over the contracts for me to look over...looks legit. So I signed them and sent them back. Wired the $460. She calls me back and says that they sent the money to my bank account and it should be posted in the morning. Well, the morning came, no money in my account. The afternoon came, still no money. So I called my bank to see if I had a deposit coming through that had not posted yet. She said "no." I called Sandra Bell back and told her that the money was not in my account. She puts me on hold, then comes back and tells me that I needed to send them another $460. I told her that I could not afford to send her anymore money and that I gave them what was agreed upon in the signed contract. I demanded a refund. She proclaimed that she processed it and that I would get my money in approximately 20-30 days. I still have not gotten my money back.

It was never a legitimate loan - it's a scam

This particular loan scam has been around for many years. It's known as the Advance Fee Loan scam. Google it. It doesn't matter which names they use, it's fake and designed to separate you from your money. They keep going making up fee after fee until you say no. At least you only fell for the initial scam and not the continuing fees thereafter. Will you get your money back - no. Scammers don't return the fees. Just so you know, a consumer loan can't charge an upfront fee like that - ever. So whenever someone asks you to send money via wire or through an untraceable method such as a pre-paid card you have a scammer on your hands. The only twist in this is you signed a contract for repayment of the loan you never received. Consult with an attorney to see what you need to do next. I suspect the scammer will be back demanding payments from you for this non-existing loan. I hope I'm wrong.
