I'm so sorry to hear about your situation Melissa. I know when you're desperate, you just want to do anything you can to get what you need and get out of a bad situation, even if it's only a temporary fix.
Take Tammy's advice, try filing a complaint with the California Attorney General's office, make complaints to the BBB in California, etc. As for wiring your money to Canada, I don't know if you can research and find out if there is a Canadian equivalent to our Attorney Generals or the BBB to contact there.
You are not the only one to fall for this company's scam, and I'm sure you won't be the last. Maybe you can help others from being taken by going after these scumbags.....

I appreciate everyone's kind works. I am going to contact the places listed above and I will let ya'll know how it all works out. Yes, I would LOVE to get my money back, but I doubt that will happen! Embarassed as I may be, I hope this helps others not to fall for these scam artists! How do they live with themselves??? I'd be so overcome with guilt!!
Thanks again,

Melissa, Don't give up. Keep pushing for your money back, repo
Melissa,
Don't give up. Keep pushing for your money back, report these crooks to everyone you can think of. I've got all my fingers and toes crossed for you.

I am really sad after reading all this. Why are the common people only to suffer? Why does it happen only on the people who are in need and in a financial mess? This is very unfortunate and the scammers are making their moves without problems.
Your help will be counted, mbarrett. When you put a complaint with the legal authorities, other innocent people doing the research on this scam company will get alarmed. You will actually save someone from falling into the prey.
mbarrett, if your state offers any free legal assistance, take a consultation.
Thanks for this post.
I also applied for this same loan online, but I didn't send any money yet. I wanted to find out if this was a scam first. What I did was I have a friend that is a lawyer and I had him call this Helen Banks up, she hang up on him. I don't think she wanted to talk to a lawyer. Thanks for the post.
Loan Source 1
Hi - Just wanted to let you know that I almost fell for this myself. The loan person I was dealing with sounded strangely like Helen Banks on their voice mail messages. I also searched the phone number and it was a cell number in Canada. I'm so glad and thankful that I found this site, or else I may have been out my money as well. I hope you have had some luck in getting your money back. No reputable company will ask for a security deposit. If you have bad credit then you may just have a higher interest rate.

I just fell for this too. It was Athlon Advisors in my case. I spoke to an officer of the Ontario Canada Police and he gave me the website phonebusters.com.
In a nutshell he told me to report it, but the police wont really do anything.
