About

Important information

  • Additional Info:
    The BBB urges consumers to exercise extreme caution before considering any advance fee loan offer. The BBB strongly urges customers to check with their local financial institutions - banks, credit unions or savings & loans - prior to considering these types of offer. The BBB also suggest that consumers question why a company would extend a loan to someone with a poor/nonexistent credit history, when other financial institutions would not do so.

    The BBB suggests that consumers contact their local financial institution to find out if they charge an upfront fee for a loan. The BBB suggests consumers request any fees be deducted from the loan amount, rather than paying these fees in advance. Consumers are advised that it is virtually impossible to recover money sent to an individual by wire transfer (i.e., Western Union or MoneyGram).
