Complaint Review: Oakwood Lending Group

I dealt with a Daniel Reid and Henry? Morgan for a business loan. He said I was approved on May 6, and requested I send a moneygram to a Daryl Simpson in Calgary, Alberta. I did not, but rather sent a certified check (so I could have recourse in case of fraud) for alleged advanced payments on the loan totaling $4,979.25 after reviewing the apparently legitimate loan documents.

He contacted me last Friday informing me the direct deposit would be made Friday at 5pm, and never heard from him again. When I called the building management company at 420 Lincoln Road, they said they'd gotten a lot of calls about Oakwood Lending, but they had no such tenant!

Additionally, their telephones no longer work, their web address now points to a penile enlargement site, and the only email address I had, admin@oakwoodlending.net, is no longer valid.

Additionally, at one point when I asked to speak to Daniel's supervisor, he posed as his own supervisor, and then Morgan, the next day, didn't know about the lie, so he told me plainly "You spoke to Daniel yesterday!".

These people (if they could be found, and if they were actually using their real names) should be sent to prison!
