UC FINANCIAL SERVICES, UNION CITY FINANCIAL SERVICES - CHERYL BOSWELL - LOAN SCAM - I LOST 1350.00 Minneapolis, Minnesota
I received approval for 5000.00 @ 8.5% fixed rate with a private lender. They advised me i would need to pay a secured payment for 750.00, they advised me based on my credit this was needed, so i agreed to do it.
I advised Cheryly Boswell that this was my rent money so i needed to verify if i sent the payment on November 25,2009 then i would need it by Tuesday December 1, 2009 to pay my rent. So she sent me a letter of guarntee. On Wednesday November 25, 2009 I sent a secured payment for 750.00.
I was then advised that an incident had occured that caused the lender to run credit checks again, and that i would need to provide an additonal 600.00 in order to procede, at first i said no to just refund me my money, but they said it would take up to 4 weeks. But because of the fact that i used my rent money i couldnt just let it go. I asked for a letter of guarntee, she provided me one, so i send the additonal 600.00 on Saturday November 28,2009. And of course the payments were sent western union , and picked up.
So today as of Tuesday, December 1, 2009 i have not recevied a payment. On monday they did not return any calls, and when i tried to call on tuesday i was advised their systems are down and they will follow up tommorow.

I'm a victim of the same scam...Is there anything that can be done?

Do you have any updates on your terrible situation?
I'm afraid I am a victim of the same scam. I accepted a loan of $10,000 at the same interest rate and sent the secure payment/first five months in advance via Western Union on December 1st, which amounted to $1,125 (all that was left of my savings...). Although Cheryl assured me I would receive the money in 4-6 hours, I did not, nor did she try to contact me to explain the problem or warn me of the "incident" yesterday, when you claimed to have discovered this information days ago. When I finally reached her today (December 2), she gave me the same excuse and offered me two options: send the next three months' payments in order to proceed or request a refund, which i won't get for four weeks...It's funny how the "loan" can be sent in 4-6 hours, but the refund cannot...Anyway, I fortunately had read your report and declined to send any more money. However, I'm losing hope that I will ever receive a refund...I am literally sick because of this mess. I don't understand how people can do such things...
If you hear anything else or receive your money, please let me know.
