OPP remind public to be
wary of advance fee loans
FREE
Huron OPP is wishing to remind
the public, at this time of year when
they are looking for some extra
money to be wary. A resident of
Huron East applied for an on-line
loan, was approved and the lender
requested a $500 fee to be sent to
them. The victim complied and has
never received the loan.
Ads that promise loans generally
appear in classified sections of local
and national newspapers, magazines
and tabloids. Simply advertising
through recognized media outlets
does not ensure the legitimacy of the
company behind the ad.
"Some companies claim they can
guarantee you a loan even if you
have bad credit or no credit. They
usually request an up-front fee,
which may range from hundreds to
thousands of dollars," said OPP
Cons. Jeff Walraven. "Once you
send your money to these
companies, you never get your
promised loan and you cannot get
your money back. If you cannot get
a loan through traditional lending
institutions, it is unlikely that you'll
get one in response to a classified ad.
Ask the loan company to take the
amount of their fee off the total
amount of the loan that was
promised you. In most jurisdictions,
it is illegal for a company to request
an up-front fee prior to obtaining a
loan."
