Galehurst Financial Lending Group SCAM. Offered Me A Loan 4 $5000.00 If I Sent Them $787.50 Galehurst Scam Edina Minnesota
Galehurst Financial Lending Group, Contacted me and said i was approved for a loan of $5000.00 at an interest rate of 8.5%. I thought that was odd sense I dont have great credit. "Donald Paterson" (Galehurst representive) said if i sent them $787.50 they would wire the $5000.00 dallors into my banking account. I said "Wow!!" I have to pay to get a loan, he said sense they are not asking for collateral, it would be a good faith payment. So I asked him "Why Dont i just borrow $5787.50 then? Donald Paterson said, that amount would raise the down payment of the loan. I was trying to get a loan and needed the money to repair a house i have for Sale. I Donald P. Fax me the paperwork, and i faxed it back to him. I told Donald P. that i needed time to raise the money for the down payment. So I decided to check out the web to see if there was any info on this company. and BEHOLD!! it is a scam!!
Im wondering sense they have my checking account info now, because i faxed back the info for the loan. Will they be able to take money out of my account? they have been waiting for me to call them back and say OK. that i have the money in my checking account. but they still have the info and the paperwork i signed!!!!

Even though they may have your banking information, they would be taking a risk by using it. That is why they have people wire the money to Canada, to avoid the traceability. If they tried to 'debit' your account, it would lead officials to them. As a safety precaution, you may still want to notify your bank. Also, report them to the BBB of Minnesota and The FTC.
