Union Financial Group ripoff Promised me a loan then said it was actually a larger loan Manhattan New York
My husband and on September 10th received a phone call from a Wendy Robinson at First Union Financial Group. When I tried to return her call I got a Peter Sills and he said I was approved for a 5,000 dollar loan, if I sent a payment of 499 dollars. I did so and then called the next day to see why the loan was not deposited into my account, I finally got to talk to Wendy Robinson and she said that Peter had made a mistakeand the loan was really for 75,000.00 dollars and I needed to send a loan premium of 1441.98 then loan would be in my bank account in 2-4 hours.
Everyone on this site seems to see whats going on based on other peoples reports and I continued on with first union financial group for a month and a half. I sent them a total of 7,000 dollars because they told me too that I was high risk and needed to pay 10% of the loan amount as collateral. I spoke to many people. Peter Sills, Wendy Robinson, Emily Martin, JOhn Rockford, Mr. Cormwell, Michael Cook, Ruth McIntyre...whether they are all the same or not is a whole nother story.
If I sat here and wrote every detail of the scam that has happened to me over the last month and a half and what got me to send them 7,000 dollars is beyond me. It sounded real....because I would consider myself a high risk person to give a loan too as well.The worst part is this company has actually called me back, but I western unioned money to canada, Jamacia and New York.
I closed my accounts and placed alerts on all my personal information, I have contacted the BBB, and AG and no one seems to be able to do anything, any suggestions?

We did ask first union to deduct the 7,000 from the 75,000. They told us they could not do that because they would not be assured of the payment and that they had to transfer us the full loan amount for the contract to be legitiment.

$75,000.00 - $7,000.00 = $68,000.00

1)Why didn't you just tell them to deduct the seven thousand dollars from the seventy five thousand dollars and to deposit the balance of $68,000.00 into your account? 2)Could you really have met the debt service ?
