looking for a finance company to finance a $10,000 deal, ran across this website on internet. did lots of reasearch on the company, could not find anything. based out of canada, promises to pay loan after sending almost $1,000 in western union fund to an individual they say is bonded in the company for insurance on the loan.  after questioning several employees on this bonded person, one employee said the man wiring the money to was a private investor, the other said it was an employee in the company. hard to catch on the phone, will not call back, different reasons for not answering calls. when contract was finally emailed to us, no addresses or phone numbers were present in it. a vague contract with little detail.  all names on contract were researched, none were able to be found.  Including the "president" and "vice president " of this compnay. No record of this business in Canada through BBB. website very vague, inconsistent hours of operation saying it opens at 8am EST, won't answer at times til 10am EST. says business open on saturdays, no answer on Saturdays.  Be careful.  Hope this helps.

thank you so much. i got an email saying that i was approved for a loan no matter what my credit was. Tried to find this company and couldn't find much of nothing.  Truth is if i had $1000 wouldn't be looking for a loan.  once again thanks very helpful.

Its called an advance fee loan scam - they promise you a loan and then tell you need to wire them a security deposit, the loan money never comes and they tell you they need more money etc..  

THERE IS NO LOAN -  

ITS ILLEGAL TO REQUEST MONEY UPFRONT!

I agree....Smartchoice Financial group are scam artists!!! I got bit...desperate for money to send my son to college and I am still waiting on a refund. I ditto everything you say...I'm hoping to get my money back...I will be calling to report them today. Do not send them any money!!!

They got me for $850.00.  I don't know how people live with themselves.  How do they not get caught?  I am a single mom and obviously trust people way too much.  I knew it looked shady, but i was desperate.

I am waiting for a refund too.  But it has been almost 3 months.  It is not coming.  I have stopped calling because they won't take calls from me anymore.  I am speaking to a lawyer.
