Omni Lending Group Same Loan scam with Different company name. Also known as Intrepid Credit Services and Stockwell Resources Port Jefferson Station New York
Company contacted me informing me that I was approved for a loan in the amount of $7,500 with a 9% interest rate. Due to my credit having some flaws in it, I would need to deposit $746.00 into an insurance policy that would cover me if I was to loose my job, become disabled or unexpected death. The insurace would pay the total amount of the loan in full.
The insurace deposit was Western Unioned to Ontario, Canada. I called the agent, Paul Sheppard, and told him that the money had been wired. Paul informed me that I would be refunded the amount of the transfer fee of $59.00 within the next few days and the Loan funds would be in my account within 24-48 hrs.
After 48hrs had pasted, I called Paul to find out why no funds were in my account. He then told me that the lender was worried about repayment and that I needed to deposit another $650.00 into the insurance policy. I refused to do so and demanded a refund of my money. Paul informs me that company policy requires them to take 30 days to refund the money. My refund is supposed to be delivered to my house on Nov 16th,2007.
The agent tried to convince me that there company was legit and faxed me a pomisary note. The note was supposed to guarantee that the lender could not back out of the deal. But they didn't remove all of the previous information that was on the form from the last victim of this scam. On the side of the promisary note was the Name of the last victim as well as the lending companies that they used for that victim. These company names are: Intrepid Credit Services and Stockwell Resources. Both of these companies are listed on the BBB and several complaints made against them.
These people have really distoyed my bill situation. I'm out $850.00 and they have my bank information along with my work information and SSN which is on my pay stubb.
For all you scammers that are reading these reports. What comes around goes around. You will get yours. I hope you like alot of heat. I think it might be alittle hot where you will be going.
