Lawyers and settling a Prosper Loan
Date: Mon, 03/03/2008 - 14:02
He wanted to talk to me about my prosper loan. Said it needed to be taken care of before it went to the attorney. I told him I couldn't do anything for a few months when my girlfriend (finally!) starts her job. And I wasn't giving them bank account numbers. He said he wasn't looking for that. Just wanted to work something out, it involved questions, like how much I make etc... So I am having him call me back because I didn't want to do it at work and I wanted to be prepared.
I'm pretty sure it was a lawyer because Prosper is legit unlike some of my other bad calls. I'm just not sure what to expect when I talk to this guy. What kind of deals should I be expecting here? Should I cooperate at all costs? I was just starting to get back on my feet here. And as always I just get knocked back down again.
Advice anyone?

I applied, to Prosper.com, for a loan. I filled out ALL of the information, they asked for. I recieved an e-mail...stating, "since my credit score was 'bad', I would have to pay an application fee ($150.00) + a fee ( this could be up to $200.00), to whomever I would get the loan from (of course, they couldn't 'guarantee' this loan). As soon as i saw they wanted a fee, I 'cancelled' my application. Horrible experience.

with all due respect, you were lied to, sd. Looking on their website there is no fee to use the site, and no application fee for anyone. There is a closing fee, but that gets deducted from the loan you get so you dont have to pay anything up front.
I think someone tried to scam you, honestly. Their website has one page that lists ALL their fees. It clearly states that they do not have any other fees than whats on that page.

Thanks for the, "in all due respect" part. When I filled out information, on Prosper.com, the website ALSO stated it would be "good" ifI joined one of the 'Groups', on the site. It was the 'Group' who e-mailed me baout the application 'fee'. Mmmmm.I guess I was lied to.
If you happen to still have the email, perhaps you should forwar
If you happen to still have the email, perhaps you should forward it to Prosper's admin...I highly doubt that Prosper sanctions such activity.

Well I haven't heard from these lawyers yet, at least they didn't call back when they said they would, not sure if they called my cell at some later time because I did not answer it. Haven't heard anything from them. I hope I get something in writing though, that would make me pay attention.
