It s unfortunate that you had to lose money on this scam pipefitterbilly. You can lodge complaints with the BBB and FTC, but the chances of you getting your money back are slim to none. These people move very quickly and pop up all over the place. When they feel the heat, they close down and open up another operation. It is amazing how long these people have been getting away with this.

Posted: Wed Sep 07, 2005 1:18 pm Subject: Colonial State Funding scam |
|
|
I just recently found this forum and sadly was a day to late my husband and I just went through colonial state funding , we lost a total of 1070.00 dollars and all of our personal and banking account information is no full knowledge to them.
They had us send them all our information then faxed us a contract we signed then told us we had to money gram the 1000 for a depoist because of our credit to a women name carolyn brown appearntly she was our agent.
needless to say we feel horrible that we let this happen to us. I contacted the FBI because we live in the us and them money went to canada. But I did learn that the fax number is from washington state. so there suppose to get back to us. I just want my money back it may only be a thousand but it was my thousand.

I have thought the same thing. It would seem as if the authorities would be able to set up an operation easily. However there is one catch, these scammers may employ others to pick up the money transfer for them. I read aboit a scam like this. The scammers pay someone to pick up the money and transfer it to another location. The one picking up the money may end up getting caught but they may not know who really is the one receiving the money. My other thought was that these people ask for the front and back of a government issued id. Are they recreating id's and using them to pick up money.
On another note, there is an update on the BBB website regarding Colonial State funding. They have been able to locate an address in Canada which may be used for this scam operation. Cassandra and Jim I do sincerely hope you can eventually receive your money back. But these companies pop up like zits on a teenager. One closes down and another one appears. And a lot of innocent people such as yourselves are victimized. I wish you luck!!

badcreditloansources.biz was the source for the victim's home phone number so I would avoid them too.
for god's sake don't send money overseas when trying to get a loan.

Its funny,with all these companies poping up and taking people to the cleaners,there hasnt been anything on the news about this.This forum has saved alot of us them sending them money,but if it was on the national news,they may be stopped,since those that dont do research before hand,will see it on TV and learn the cold hard facts.This is becoming a big problem,with so many Americans in debt,you would think that a story like this would be worth airing.Most of these scam loan companies are not really even in the US,and they are using fake US addresses to lure us in.Wheres the media when you need them?
