Yorkview Financial Services They are diffinitely scams and good at it chicago, Missouri
I was looking for a loan for a home, my husand and I had filed bankrupcty and we were getting a no answer everywhere we turned. Then I recieved a phone call from a James Kennedy with Yorkview financial services. He stated I had been approved for a 40,000 loan and I would need to send him 4 months worth of payments which was 2000.00. So I did exactly that thinking everything was ligit. Then I recieved a phone call from Kyle who stated that there was a problem with my loan and they could not get my loan insured and I would have to send another 2000.00 and then they would be able to send me the money. I should of realized from the start that this was a scam, but when you are needing money for something you are wanting it is hard to pass this up. Once I realized it truely was a scam I was heartbroken and upset that I let myself for such a scam. I had given them everything I had. I now I am almost ending up in a divorce because I gave our money away. I just hope that sooner or later they will be caught and there conscious will get the best of them. SO please let this be a life lesson for anyone else who gets a phone call from this sold called finance company and they will not be taken like the some of the rest of us. I just know next time I will never deal with someone out of state again and I will reasearch the company very deeply before I ever send money again.

This sounds to me like a Ben Narter scam. He stole lots of money from homeowners trying to refinance. Search his name, read the comments left by others on ripoff report. Does it sound familiar, like the two scams could be from the same person?

It's important for people like you to tell theses stories about these disgusting creeps. It's easy to flog yourself for letting them sucker you but when you're desperate and think you can trust people, you are, unfortunately an easy mark.
I hope they get caught too but they probably won't, and don't count on their conscience bothering them, they don't have one.
Good luck and I hope you've helped someone else.

"I just know next time I will never deal with someone out of state again and I will reasearch the company very deeply before I ever send money again."
This is a very common Internet scam. Basically, if your credit is in the dumps and you're offered a huge loan at a good interest rate, you know you're being scammed. It falls under the "too good to be true" category.
Some other red flags are : Requiring a large upfront payment (real lenders do not do this). Requiring that you send the money through Moneygram or Western Union (these transfers are untraceable). Requiring that you send money out of the country (guarantees U.S. law enforcement won't have jurisdiction). Emailing you from a throwaway address such as gmail.com, yahoo.com, hotmail.com, etc...
The FTC has a webpage devoted to this type of scam :
