Complaint Review: Evercore Financial Solutions - Bangor Maine

Interestingly enough and also dissapointingly enough as well...I called evercore at the 888 880 1798 telephone # today..i have called everyday and left v.m after v.m.  Shockingly the former voice prompt that came up when they answered has changed to a very generic  "Hello we will be with you asap the 1st available agent will be with you" then it repeats it..then an automatic hang up.

I shouldn't be surprised, I caused quite a ruckus with these scam artists.  I got the the whole city council of Bangor Maine involved as well as the town attorney, the attorney general, canadian police, the telephone service that runs their 1-888 number, and today the FBI as well as the Canadian ministry. 

I probably will never get my money back...however...if I was able to shut them down..even temprarily till they reboot then that gives me some solice.  However, I will keep looking online to see if they pose as a new "Loan company". 

Also...as of right now...their website is still up and running. 

 "requested thru the BBB that Evercore resolve this issue by sending me a check for the money I have already sent them. I will let the site know if this gets resolved."

   It's not going to be resolved.   You seem to be under the impression that this is an actual loan company.  It's not.  You've been dealing with a group of anonymous scammers.   The money's gone and it's not coming back.  There is no one to go after legally because all of the names and company info they gave you was made up.

  Here's how it worked.  The scammers made up a fake loan company (possibly using the name of a real company) and trolled the Internet for people with bad credit in search of a loan.  Real lenders do not require "down payments" or insurance, only scammers.   They instructed you to send money via Moneygram or Western Union.  They do this because this method is untraceable and the only way a scammer can get away with your cash without leaving a paper trail.  Real lenders do not require payment this way.  Lastly, they had you send the money to Canada so that no U.S. law enforcement agency would have jurisdiction over the transaction.  That pretty much guarantees that they would get away with it, even if you could identify them (which you can't).

  This is called the Advance Fee Loan Scam and it is one of the more popular scams on the Internet.   The FTC has dedicated a web page to this scam at :

I was approved for $25K.  Same sales person Michael Finley...I had to send x2 wire transfers $780 each to the same people you stated...what REALLY red flagged me was the insurance the day after when my money wasnt in my account.  I called Mr Finley and to tell him it was not there.  Thats when he sprung it on me after calling me back an hour later that my lenders would only release the funds if i wire another $1000 to them.  After this I said no more.  I called Mr. Finley back and asked him what if I back out of the loan.  Supposedly I will get a check in the mail for the money I have spent in the investment...nearly $1700 now.  I contacted the BBB (EVercore's website stated that they are BBB accredited but when I checked the BBB website they were no where to be found).  I filed a complaint with the BBB and requested thru the BBB that Evercore resolve this issue by sending me a check for the money I have already sent them.  I will let the site know if this gets resolved. 

Oh...and after I voiced my concerns with Mr. Finley...and asked him to send me copies of the  "Insurance" and paperwork or contact information for who my lenders were....he gave me the run around and stated that he can give me a letter from the CEO of evercore guaranteeing that I would get my funds.  Just like your situation that you stated.

If the BBB does not come thru I wont stop..I will sue in a civil court if necessary and go thru what ever channels I must.
