Global Financial ripoff loan scam Toronto Ontario Canada

My mom was recently ripped off by the same people. Here's the info: alstonanddeanpremierfinancial.com / western union to Jason Smith. Rode my mom for $1750.

I work for the US Gov and have started an investigation with the tools that are at my disposal. I have various information, emails, IP Addresses, phone numbers and locations. I have submitted various reports to the FBI, IC3 along with certain fraud companies in Ontario Canada.

I'm hoping they catch these two... I could tell this was a scam right when I saw it... had to school my Mom on internet rules...

Now that I am twenty-two I have finally learned to trust my instincts. Never has that come in more handy than at this very moment. My mother and I have fallen on hard times, so it was at my suggestion that we apply for a "Bad Credit/No Credit Loan that I located in the Washington City Paper.

About four days after applying for the loan, we received a call from a Hispanic woman who told my mother that she had been approved for a $10,000 loan, but first needed to send in a $975.00 security deposit. That sounded weird to us...if we had almost a grand why would we need a personal loan? So we declined.

After another week of not knowing where the money to pay tuition is going to come from, my mother reapplied for the loan. This time "Sarah Thompson" told us that the security deposit went up to $1200. Why had it gone up in just a weeks time? "Well, the other girl calculated something wrong."

My mother talked them down to $750.00...that was a big red flag. It seemed they were eager just to take any money. The second big red flag was when "Ms. Thompson" refused to give a straight answer about the exact address of this "establishment" or why we would be sending money to "Brent Kimber" rather than Global Financial. Again we declined.

At this point, I was convinced that this was nothing more than one of those scams we talked about in my Criminology class. My mother wasn't as convinced, and went back a third time...this time talking to a "Rachel Green" with stricking similarities vocally to "Sarah Thompson." Mom explained to "Rachel" that the Western Union documents caution anyone from sending money away in hopes of gaining a personal loan. She asked for e-mail verification that Global Financial is a legit coroporation. "Rachel" said that she couldn't e-mail them...what type of financial institution doesn't have e-mail? She faxed some loan documents.

That was the final nail in their coffin with me. As a student, I know what loan promissory notes look like...Lord knows the government has had me sign enough of them. These "documents" were nothing more than business letters typed up on Microsoft Word....I've seem more convincing rubber stamps. Pages 4-5 needed to be faxed back, and each page was signed by a different person. "Ray Peters" and GF president "Jack Hilton," for example. Using famous last names like Hilton and Rockefeller...classic con artist move.

My mother still believed in their innocence and was ready to send them our rent money today...until I Googled the 1141 Bay Street address that they finally gave us and came up with the rip-off report. GOD works in wonderful ways!!

Everyone please follow you instincts on things like this...I am glad that I did. If anyone is having a difficult time getting in touch with these people they are currently at (416)837-9665. I have a good mind to call the FBI and let them know what they've got on their hands.

Brooks,

You have fallen for an advance fee loan scam. In all certainty your money is simply gone. If you receive a refund check at all, it will likely be fake and if you deposit and spend it your bank will take the money back as soon as they are notified the check is fake.

No lender will require a "security deposit" for a cash loan. It is simply not done. Advance fee loan scams, in which the "deposit" is sent Western Union to Canada are rampant. Western Union will not take responsibility because they did what you asked - transferred funds to a specific person at your request.

Red flags should have gone up when you were sending the money to an individual instead of a lending institution.

The telephone call you made as well as the money you sent went to Canada. This is the base of many of these operations. The typical set up is for these con artists to rent a motel room, run a newspaper ad with the telephone number, solicit customers for a week or two. They collect several thousand dollars for a week or two then move on to another area to avoid detection. The names are likely fake, and the I.D. presented at the Western Union office is probably fake as well.

Well they certainly took you for a ride but this company offers pay day loans and goes by several different names one being Cashnet 500 online. I would turn them into the Utah Department of Finance because from my experience if it is the same Global Finance that is the state that they are licensed in. I would certainly turn them into your state attorney general and try Utah and any other possibilities that you can come up with. I received a letter that the state of Utah had sent them regarding my case and I feel sure that they can probably help you as well.. These places are scammers and operate under various names and make various types of loans. Please read the ripoff report and you will find various stories regarding this company. Good Luck
