A woman named Arlene Miller contacted me stating that her company approved me for a $3000 personal loan. She went over the terms and faxed me the contract. She then stated in an email that they needed a collateral payment of $408.75. I told her that I don't have that much, so she said I could pay $300.She then sent me an email stating that I needed to send the $300 to Kellyann Beckford in Queens, NY. So I did. It cost me $25 to send it via western union.The woman picked up the funds then I received another email from Arlene Miller, stating that they were requesting additional collateral. I began recovering the IP address as I realized I'd been scammed. I called them back this morning to request a refund, and the woman laughed at me and hung up. The address on their website says its an empty space for rent. The IP address does not match their claimed location. And the website has only been active since January of this year. Everytime I call the same woman answers.I filled a report with western union, the fbi, the ftc and the bbb, and also attempted to file a police report. The police officer told me there's nothing they could do. I'm a single mother going through desperate times and they preyed on me. Please help me!! I have all documents and emails to prove all that I have said.

Update: 01/16/2014

The woman that recieved the money was Shellyann Beckford. Not Kellyann. Apologies for the typo.

  • They tried to make an unauthorized charge to my personal bank account. I had to freeze my account and change all information. They will DESTROY you. Please do not send these people ANYTHING.
