Oakdale Lending Group Oakdale Lending Group Tried Scamming me too! Charlottesville Virginia
Just like everyone else my husband and I were looking for a loan to pay off some bills. When we were contacted by Chris Hamilton of Oakdale Lending Group and Approved for a 7000.00 loan. But we had to make a deposit of 1150.00 for 7 months of payments a head of time. We decided to go ahead with it so I faxed the signed documents and my driver's license and other personal information back to them. The Mr. Hamilton called me and stated that I would have to wire the money to the lenders rep.
At this point when he gave me the information for the wire transfer I was still a little worried. But I went ahead and wired the money to a Melissa Turner in Canada. After the wire went through I knew I messed up so I contacted Money Gram and they said the money had yet to be picked up. So at this point I explained to them what happen and they stopped the transaction. Thank God they did not pick the money up yet and I was able to get a full refund back. Thirty minutes after I cancelled the transaction I received a phone call from Mr. Hamilton asking what happen to the wire. I told him I believed this was a scam and cancelled the transaction.
He tried to assure me that is was not a scam. But when I spoke with the rep from Money Gram he stated that is was a scam and the reason they want the money wired to Canada is because in Canada you do not need any identification to pick up a wire transfer. So most of these people live right on the border of the US and Canada and go back and forth to received the money transfers.
