We went through the same thing. Intrepid Financial Services took us for close to 4000 dollars. we lost our house his truck and my car. we had to put our wedding off after payin for dresses and tuxes due to not getting the loan. we then recieved a phone call from Lindeberg Financial Services who not only called but emailed as well. I contacted the television station as well as the local police department. i was told to write to my congressman that every couple of yrs if they have enough complaints they go after these a-holes and usually get people their money back providing they have proof that they sent money and never recieved anything. i wrote a nice long letter to my congressman and included copies of the western union forms as well as a copy of the loan agreement. They use western union and money gram for the transactions as to not commit a felony askin for money through the mail is a felony. wiring the money is not. hope all works out for everyone this has happened too

i had a simular company like this one but it had a different name contact my husband saying that they received a online app that we filled out.i was a little confused because we wasn't at the time looking for a loan.so i thought here's a nice cat and mouse game i could play with these f**kers.i told my husband to hand over that phone and i asked them for the name of their company but i didn't mention that i was going to do some investigation on them.so we played like we we're interested in getting the loan and told them to call back in about 3days.well doing my investigation i found out they had scammed atleast 4 people who had medical problems and kids.and thanks to yahoo answers i wouldn't have known a thing about them.here's were the red flag went up! they said we were approved for 6000.00 but we had to put down 875.00 insurance fee because of our credit,mind you they don't even have our ssn so how would they know about our credit? REMEMBER GUYS NEVER PAY MONEY TO GET MONEY! anyhoo that's where i told my husband this has to be a scam because you don't pay money to get money and if you do pay money to get money why do you need that loan if you already have money?so after my investigation they called back and i was started asking questions like: how did you get our ssn(the online app doesn't even ask for your ssn) if you didn't ask for it? all they could say was we gave it to them.that's when i responded your online app doesn't ask for a ssn they response was:silent.so then i go on about the reports i've read online about them and all they could say is everything was a lie and they don't scam people.so my next response was you better loose my number before i buy a plane ticket to canada and pay you a visit.i've never heard from them again and i bet they were shocked i knew about were they are calling from.
