Westchester Equity Group Noah Higgins, David Paige , Loan Scam, detroit, Internet
I also had been searching for a loan for my child to continue education in college. After a few days of filing out applications and being rejected I was contacted by a Noah Higgins that left me a message on my phone that I had been approved for a $6000 loan. I was desperate and anxious and returned that call (what a mistake). I returned the call to a Noah Higgins who stated that I was approved for a $6000 loan but I needed to provide a cash collateral deposit of $797.16 and would not be due until March for a payment of $265.72 @ 6 %. I took my paycheck being that I THOUGHT i would have a better turnaround and sent the money via western union to an individual named SHELLY ANN MALCOLM/JERMAINE MCFARLANE. Then was told to call to call back with the confirmation/control number and my loan would be funded the next day. Well now it the next day and I continuously checked my account only to find that a block had been placed on the account (thankk God). Now I was wondering what was going on, so I called the bank. No response, so then I call for some reason check my phone and guess what a message from someone named David stating there was a problem. Now I called back to customer service and I kept getting the run around until finally I spoke with David Paige. Now here is David with a story, there is a slight problem. Well yes, It was the same thing we contacted the lender and now they are not comfortable with your credit for you need to pay 5 mor months in advance and then we can fund the loan. Well now I realize what a mistake I made, this is a scam. I immediately told him now and demanded a refund. David Paige told me that he would contact the investor and let them know that I did not want to proceed and he would call me back. Hours went by and no phone call so, yes I called back. David then attempted to act as if he did not know me and then he stated he was waiting for a response back from the lender and would phone me back. I'm still waiting as I'm typing this story. I will be obtaining legal advice and seeking prosecution with these individuals. So all that have been scamed by this Westchester Equity gGroup lets for a union and fight for our money back because we all sacrificed monies that we did not have expecting to gain more out of it. We did not deserve this and will not stand for it. Anyone have any suggestions or answers? Lets prosecute!

I bet the website is gone and they will probably not answer the phone anymore either, but I'm not giving up either. I'm sure that we may be able to track down someone with the help of the law. It will be hard but let's not give up. They should be prosecuted.

I urge you to call the phonebusters group that assists the canadian officials in these types of investigation. I have saved a webshot of their website. they put it on and off the web at their dicrection in case someone asks about it. but phonebusters told me that they have not heard anymore complaints about them besides mines. If enough of us call and assist they might be able to do more investigation. Most likely they are going to be where the money was sent, in Cananda. the phonebusters telephone is 888 495 8501. But put the word out as mush as you can because the cowardly criminals are probably preying on many others, using all kinds of schemes. Keep me posted please on what you guys find out lets just try to work together on this. I know its frustrating nut lets do whatever we can.

I was the first person to write a complaint and now trying to log on to their website and guess what - it is gone - disappeared just like all our money. Sad that people are like this and the more I get to thinking I bet the names that we all have is not their real names - I think we are all out our money - although I am not giving up and will continue to fight.....
