Hi all,
I applied for a loan on the net back in June with a uk company, everything was fine filled out the forms etc, they told me i had to pay 400sterling as i was applying outside uk so not knowing any better i paid it thru western union, then i was going on hols at the end of july and was hoping the loan would be thru by then, the guy i was delaing with kept in touch with me daily via email, then he told me i had to pay a one off payment of another 400sterling/700euro before my loan would be approved i was a bit concerned at this stage as i thought it wud be a bit weird to do this, then just as i thought the loan had been approved and transferred to me he emails me to tell me that i have not sent the last payment, i did and i told him that he has to have received it as with western union the receivers name can only claim the money!! So then havent heard anything from him for wks persuming my application is cancelled coz i wudnt send anymore money i thought ok i have been caught out..... Next i get an email yesterday from a different guy who says he needs my bank details my loan has been approved i will have it on wednesday of this week and that the company has been taken over & will all the hiccups that have happened there going to process my application. My question is is this a scam or what they tell me its not but i'm not to convinced like a couple of wks ago they tell me if i dont make the payment i wont get my loan now they are giving it to me.& who has my 700euro or where is it gone???? any advice much appreicated
