Thank you angeleyes for the information. Yes that is true, apparently this scam has been around for a while and unfortunately, these people are still scamming the hardworking people in time of need.

Good job Angeleyes...

I ran across something smelling very fishy. I could be wrong, but its a dead ringer for the Allied MB type of scam. It's called FirstFunds LLC. They offer unsecured loans to small businesses for up to $1,000,000. (Sure they do) They have a BBB address of:
FIRSTFUNDS LLC
127 West 30th Street
New York, NY 10001

and a google address of:
240 West, 35th Street, 16th Floor
New York, NY 10001

The BBB just got the first bit of information on them 2 days ago (imagine that) and is still trying to get more information on them. I pulled up a map, and the address is near Madison Square Garden in the garmet/designer district. So, if anyone in NY wants to check it out...and get back to us.

I have a question guys, I got scammed out of 974 dollars, and I'm about to go burn their building down, if I could find the damn thing. Anyways, I have gathered some information and I plan on calling 1000 times on Monday and every day after that. I also have an alternate plan :D. What names did you guys send the money too? I sent it to a Gary Bender, so I am assuming there is no way to get my money back no matter how hard I try?

~ Dale

Mine was sent to a "Dean Zinman" in Alberta Canada.

Let me know if you find them...I have people looking now and we would love to see them.

Unforturnately we will probably never see any of our lost money again. The important thing is that we may be able to prevent someone else from being scammed by these people, and have become much wiser ourselves about shady business practices.

Anyways, I think you have to have identification to pick up the money, correct? Well I have found 2 Gary Benders near Ottawa, Canada..Where to money was transfered too. So I plan on calling the Gary that lives closest (Like 45 Minutes away, but i'm sure he'd just lie to me anyways, but it's worth a shot. I also have a couple more plans in action that may fall though..I don't think it will get my money back, but it may bring the entire operation down..I'll keep you guys posted :D.

~ Dale

Hey 2pinacoladas,

I did a little research and found two Dean Zinman that live in Canada, one of which lives in Toronto and other other in Ottawa, i'm not sure if you know this already, but I have their addresses and phone numbers if you would like them?

LMK

~ Dale

I also just found out something interesting. That the music when you are on hold/the backround music is actually 98.1 a Toronto, Canada radio station...So I am assuming they reside in Canada, if that helps anybody on a wild goose chase in Kansas or where ever they say they are.

~ Dale

please don't even consider doing anything with this
rip off con artist! do not send them money!!!!
guaranteed to never see the money they promise you and not to be able to do anything about it! they prey on those of us who have poor credit history and then rip you off...trust me i was ripped off for $900.
and have since found many others and some for as much as $5000.!!!

We all need to band together to get rid of these low-life ripoffs! Everyone please file as many complaints with everyone you can!

Dale,

YES...I would love to have the address of this Dean Zinman. I am not sure how you would get them to me. I know they won't post that info on this site. (Moderators please help us out here... :D ) I need to give the information to the Ranger that is investigating for me.

Or, you could tell me how to find that information and I can get it my self...

Thank you soooo much for your help.

Take my advice, DO NOT SEND your money to these people!

After filling out an on line application I was contact by Sandra Wayane via email saying she needed to talk to me. Here is her email:

===================================
I printed out a copy of the "contract document". It looks legal. In the mean time I emailed Ms. Sandra back asking her about these acquisations and she has not responded.

I just called the above number and it goes to vm.

So please, please DO NOT SEND your money to these people!

I plan on report them to the BBB.

What I would like to know if any of you all can help is that I actually applied to American General Finance. They are the only on-line app. I did. Now,I wonder, when the leg. company turns you down has anyone ever thought that maybe people inside these companies know that we were turned down and for a fee submit our data to these scam low-lives? Also not happy with the action of my complaint to Western Union. I lost $1,080.00 dollars plus the $89.00 transfer fee. Wonder how this company got our data. From outside hacker or inside the company one. I had never heard of Allied Mutual Broker until phoney loan broker calling herself Camille Chambers contacted me by phone. After two days of not receivng my loan when I dialed the ext. back I hit 0 instead of 19765 and got a voice mail of Mrs. Roberts sounding like Camille Chambers. Also my money went to Alexander Durante, Yukon, Noprthwest Territories. It will take months for me to recover from this loss. I have reported this to all agencies but was totally disgusted by Western Union. Could they also be involved? I wonder.

I have not heard yet that Western Union also getting involved in such illegal activities. If it has happened in your case, then the whole system is corrupt.

None of the phone numbers have worked since Monday or so. They are either busy, say they are unavailable, or just ring and ring. Now, basically, we have nothing to go by anymore. I can't even harass them!!!

I have lost $2,700 to these *#@#! I feel so stupid and violated!!! The only place that I had applied to was American General Finance. I would love to pursue this, but obviously I don't have the money. I have reported this to every number that was given on this website. I hope someone can help us.

Hi Stf

Apart from filing complaints, have you discussed this issue with your lawyer?

Maybe, he will help you in showing the legal aspect of your case.

Regards
Roxette

I really don't know how a lawyer can help me until they actually find out who is doing this, and from where. From what I have read on this sight no one has any concrete information on allied, except for the fact that they are a scam, and that they use fake names. Really the lawyer probably could only help if I had more info.

allied is a fraud for sure they changed the names and the numbers but still the same thing as mentioned before. only thing is i was stupid enough to send them money.... to be exact i sent about 5000 us dollars to them to a lady in Halifax Nova Scotia, Canada named Gloria Steinbeck. If anyone has any ideas on finding these ppl let me know and i will also help any way i can.

Hi donofusx

Have you filed your complaints at the FTC, BBB and the state attorney general office? They will take actions only after they have received large number of complaints from the consumers. Also lodge your complaint at the nearest police station.

Roxette

Yes, I too was bilked out of $1000 for the insurance on a $5000 loan. After a couple of calls from 'Ashley McNeil', the last one "assuring" me that they are legit, I never heard from anyone nor received the direct deposit to my account.

i work for a bank,I can tell you this is crap!!!!!How many times does anyone need to inform about this? DONT DO THIS

banks can provide financial assistance, but if you can't get a loan then comence sence should tell you don't , these are full of crap, they say they got the loans- well prove it ! Oh you cant! I can say this is bs!!!! The website is on/off, the extentions never answer, comon!!

Well its been a while but does anyone have any new info on these guys? I still have a bunch of paperwork and I at least got to tell the guy I talked to about what I was going to do to him if I ever found him!

This place is a scam i was contacted by them and they said the exact same thing that htey said to everyone of you guys..this is a scam..they ripped me off i didnt know better but i want everyone to know that hey are a scam!!!!!If you can get any info about allied please email me at...remember it is a scam

Well folks - it continues, just a different name. Bentley Financials from supposedly NY. My sister got burned for about $2600. She lives in Arkansas, and she has me (in a GA lawfirm) doing research to find the scum and also a police detective looking into it. He (the detective) is calling a police detective in NY to try to get this resolved (or at least, busted up)...I'll keep you posted.

Hey, this is my first post.
is there just a lot of spam here or is there some useful info shared?
Leave me a post and introduce yourself
Bye,
