A little sad news today! I can't help but write about these scammers, otherwise they'll start scamming others. I hope this review is helpful and saves others.Money and time. Unfortunately, I couldn't find the right review to avoid wasting time on them.
So, our family urgently needed a loan—specifically, cash. Consumer loans are currently frozen in our country, and even if they are available, they carry extremely high interest rates. These scammers are taking advantage of this.
My aunt, without even realizing it, suggested I contact this company. I agreed, since I had no other choice, and I didn't know the details. But they said the terms were suitable for me.
I called them and made an appointment, but I couldn’t come right away and they kept calling, both me and Aunt, even though she only gave me the number and that was it.
I was confused by the conditions, they offer everything too smoothly, in the countryBanks don't give loans, but these guys are happy to, and even at 12% per annum, although the bank currently offers 40%.
I specifically asked the girl to tell me the catch right away, because it was very far to go to them, there was no time, we were looking for money urgently, we had a small child, and I didn’t want to waste time getting to them.
But the girl calculated my loan and assured us that when we arrived with our passports, they would tell us the same thing.
Oh well, we barely found the time, we had to take a day off and drag our small child across the city to get a consultation and get a loan faster.
When I arrived to see the consultant, he didn't confirm anything they'd offered us. Furthermore, he treated me like I was a fool, forgive my language, but that's true. He said they couldn't have told me that, and the loan calculation was only available after reviewing my credit history. But how?? Over the phone, it was a completely different conversation: they did ask about the loan calculation and my credit history, but in the end, they just said they never said anything like that.
Come on guys, this is crazy!
So, to get a loan for the required amount, they offer to raise the required amount from three different banks at enormous interest rates! But they don't have any funds right away, andPlus , be warned: these scammers want 5% of the total. They should go to hell. Not only do they lure people over the phone, constantly calling, and spreading false information, but they also want money.
I asked her politely, please tell me everything right away, don't lie, it's too far to go, there's no time. But no, just to lure me in.
They're trying to lure people into a dead-end debt trap, using credit problems as a pretext. Protect your elderly from these scammers. Otherwise, you could end up stuck in endless loans. Even I, the naive one, fell for it, but unfortunately, I didn't find the right review online. So I didn't call them, much less visit. Only use reputable banks. Take care of yourself and your loved ones.
Thank you for your attention
