I was searching for this company and this site came up. I was actually scammed yesterday with a similiar company. The name is Brace Lending Group in Long Beach California. I was contacted by them telling me that I was approved for a loan and I needed to wire $1000 to some guy named Peter Walsh in Canada. I was leary but I asked questions and checked the Better Business Bureau. There were no negative reports on them. They sent me a loan contract and I had someone else look it over. He said it looked legit. I wired the money yesterday. Today the money was supposed to be in my account it wasn't. I called the person I was dealing with Millie Kaleri and left 8-10 messages. She never returned my calls. I also started dialing in extensions and what a surprise nobody picked up their phone. On the website www.bracelendinggroup.com it lists two customer service numbers when you call them one disconnects you and the other is a pager. I called information and they had no number or address listed. If they were legit you should be able to get ahold of them. I am so upset right now. I filed a complaint on the labbb site. I am in such a financial mess right now. I don't know what to do. I am also scared because they have all my information and bank account number. I don't want this to happen to anyone else. Please beware. I also received a call from Andrew Bennett at Equimark Investment Group and he had approved me on a loan also with 4 payments upfront. I called him to ask questions about the loan and he asked me for the information and told me that they had a fraud department and maybe they could help me out. Oh my Gosh. I am telling him about all this and Him and his company are also a scam. How are all these people involved in this when they know they are hurting people and nothing has been done about it? How come they haven't been prosecuted? I also called moneygram of course they received the money on the other end. The girl that told me this said this is a huge scam right now with Canada and Nigeria. She said to file a police report and then maybe they could track this person down in Canada that took the money. Apparently they have to show id. I don't know what to do. Thanks for listening. Wed, 11 Oct 2006 18:48:27 PDT
