My huband applied for a loan online and was approved by Variety financial. he was approved. He spoke to Jerry Nichols. He then told my husband to send $800 because he was a high risk applicant. We sent the money through western union. Then they told us we had to send another $700 for insurance and we sent the money and didn't receive our $5000 loan . We lost $1600
Variety Financial scammed us out of $1600. I don't intend to let them get away with it I've notified the FBI, my local Police department and the eyewitness newsin New york and Florida also the news in Canada, Phonebusters and western union and cybercrime

You won't get your money back

This advanced-fee loan scam has been going on for years. If you were applying for a loan on-line, didn't it occur to you to go to any search engine and type in "loans" "insurance" "advance" or anything like that? Didn't it seem odd that you had to pay $1600 for a $5000 loan?
If you have been turned down every where else on the planet, which you have since you were doing this on-line, then you have really bad credit. Why would a 'private investor' loan money to a person with horrible credit? Would you? If your buddy had borrowed thousands from you, never paid you back, then asked for more money, would you give it to him? Same thing applies here. These people prey on credit-risks, because they know that you will fall for the scam.
