I searched online for a loan agency that would allow me a loan because I have bad credit. I signed up at radiance finance believing that it was legitimate and, never before having applied for a loan, thought nothing initially of the process.
Eventually the truth came out when I attempted to access my bank in app only to find out my account is locked. Long story short, I was led to believe this company or scam was legitimate. There was paperwork I signed electronically as well! The person I spoke with identified himself as Alon Thomas
