Complaint Review: Brookfield Lending Services - Brentwood Tennessee

CHECK OUT THIS WHOLE STORY. THIS IS TRUE AND ACCURATE OF WHAT I DID AND WENT THROUGH!(Better Business Bureau).

I agreed to it and on Friday 22 June 2007 I called Mr. Jennings at 1-866-834-5347 Ext 382. He and I spoke for a few minutes and he said I would need to fax to him the loan agreement and a voided check for him to direct deposit the money in my account my ID. He asked for it to be faxed to 615-866-3458. He also asked that I MONEY GRAM the money to him, it had to be money gramed so he can have the money in my account by Saturday 23 June 2007. He told me when I get to the money gram place give him a call and he will give me the information to where to send the money. I then went to WALMART in Hilltop, PA to money gram the money. At WALMART I called MR. Jennings once again he told me to do a person to person MONEY GRAM, he stated it would go through quicker. The person He asked me to send the money to was Deborah Elson in Kent Ontario Canada. This was at 10:58 am on Friday.

On Saturday 23 June 2007 I checked my bank account and no money was transferred in. I then got nervous and contacted my bank to see if anything was pending. It wasn't. I on a whim looked up Brookfield Lending services on the WWW, to see what I found besides their website. I found on Ripoff.com two other people stated they sent them money on a promises of a loan and never received money. Also the BBB updated their site on this company stating that on June 18th 2007 they visited the site of Brookfield lending talked to the property management to see if they were a tenant of this site. The management company stated they were NEVER a resident there. I then Contacted MONEY GRAM and explained the situation, they asked for the reference number of ######### to see if the money was still in their system. MONEY GRAM stated the money was withdrawn at 12:51 PM on 22 June 2007, and they had no recourse to recover the money, since it was withdrawn already. I also contacted my bank, FTC, FBI, Brentwood Police Dept, Horsham Police Dept, and BBB. Everyone must do this and keep up on it. It is a long process but we need to put these guys behind bars forever, Lets get them caught!!!

On 6-18-2007 I received a phone call from Steve Jennings from Brookfield lending services stating he got my application from online for a personal loan. He stated I was approved for $20,000 USD and he needed a little information from me. He asked for a fax number and he would fax me the paperwork for this loan. I provided him a fax number and he faxed me 5 pages. The paper work was a loan contract with a fixed interest rate and repayment schedule. Once the paper work was received I called Mr. Jennings back and he stated the terms of the loan. He stated the loan was for $20,000 USD and that it was a 7% fixed interest rate for 4 years. The repayment would be monthly at $478.75 USD. He also stated due to your credit score he would have to do a secured loan and I would need 4 months upfront at $1915.00 USD. He would hold the loan open till the 22nd of June 2007 in order for me to get this money. He also said to reassure me they were a real company that they were listed in the BBB
