Victim Location 27350
Total money lost $2,340
Type of a scam Advance Fee Loan
A business adviser recommended to contact David Michael at David Lending and they can expedite a SBA Business Start Up Loan for you. Needless to say the business adviser did not vet this guy and he has been terminated as well with a law suit. David Michael contacted me via email and email only. He quickly sent a one page application for a loan (red flag). I filled out the amount for the loan and he quickly requested a loan origination fee of $2310 for a $75,000 loan. It was required to wire the money through the bank wire transfer (red flag). Once you send the $3210 loan, this David Michael request a $4680 loan fee be sent in which they claim that they will refund back into your account along with the loan amount of $75,000. I was led into this by my business adviser (another scam) and he claimed he was his guy and ready to expedite the loan process. Once I realized the scam, I requested a refund and was directed by this David Michael to send a refund fee via Bitcoin and was told the $2310 would be refunded. unfortunately, i am not sending sending any more money to this David Michael. I am in a law suit with my business adviser to get the money back. Loan fees and adviser fees. There was also a Donna Kennedy involved. The money was wired to US Bank 6430 W Lake Mead Blvd Ste 110, Las Vegas, NV 89108, USA. Las Vegas is another (red flag).
