Complaint Review: Wells Financial Services

After having searched on the inter net for a personal loan using lending tree as a starting point because I had good luck in them helping me find the right home loan for me earlier this year I asked for help for a personal loan.

A day or two later,this all happended early this month, January 2007, I recevied a phone call from a Kate Michaels of Wells Financial Services saying that the amount I had asked for had been approved by her company. She asked for my e-mail address and I gave it to her where she sent me a very authentic looking loan coverage statement outlining the loan and terms of aggreement.
At first when she said she only needed my ID and not my husbands I should have stopped there. That was my first "I'm not to sure about this", but it maded me feel good to think that I could get a loan on my own.

Then I was asked to send $2,100.00 via Western Union to an Erivin Campbell in New York, New York. 2nd. mistake. Then they would deposit the loan amount into my bank account. Oh by the way I have given them not only the name address of my bank account but the routing number and account number and a copy of my drivers license, and Social Security number. Then they asked for $499.00, to be sent via western union to a Jeaine Silk of Hamilton Ontario, Canada, this is a fee for the exchange rate of money because they are getting the money from overseas. 3rd really stupid mistake.

That is just about it and I really feel so very stupid I was just so desperate to get my bills under control. Hope you can do something with this.
