Took $1040 up front for collateral for a $7000 loan and did not give us anything. Had us use a wire transfer to Canada. We did not do all the research prior to completing the transaction. Same on us but I would never give money prior to receiving it.

They have opened shop under the new name of Castlefield Lending Group. Same scenario, same request. Send them $700. as collaterol for a $5, 000.00 loan! They claim to be based in Tampa, Florida but the number they called from was an Ontario, Canada number. I spoke with Dennis Young (who actually sounded as if he was trying to mask a slight accent). Fortunately, I didn't send the money. Let's face it, if I had 700 to send them I would need a loan, would I? Can everyone say "SCAM"?

I think they have opened shop now calling themselves Castlefield Lending Group. I was contacted by a Dennis Young and told that I had been approved for $5, 000.00 but would have to send "collaterol" of $704.00 first and that the funds would be deposited within 24 hours. Got a little suspicious when they weren't registered with the Florida Attorney General's office nor with the BBB. They claim its because the Attorney General's office doesn't have their database updated!!! Once he said that I knew he wasn't for real! Then I stated that if I had $700 to send him I wouldn't need a loan!!! Can everyone say "SCAM"?

people anytime u get a ad to barrow money look at the email address, no loan company uses gmail, yahoo, or hot mail, most the time its net or they use the name of they're company for the email, this weston group is nothin but a scam, and anytime you are asked for advance fee's its illegal u should not have to buy a loan if u could do that why would u need the loan? and why would a another country loan money to someone here, this internet scams are gettin worse by the day, and this FBI scam is next, they claiming they are from the FBI and find this place or that place is correct its a scam and someone one posin at the FBI, Robeet Mueller has been retired for years why the hell would he sit there and sent out emails telling you to send this place money and so forth??? Do not believe nothin on the internet check it out first and most of all do not give anyone your info the FBI is not goin to email u in the first place.

I was also contacted by the BBB this morning to find out the original site that I filled out the application because they have already figured out that Weston Lending Group's site is down. I strongly suggest that any and all of you that haven't filed complaints and the websites that have been provided in these complaint boards that you do so right away. As well as filing with your local law enforcement agency. I kept calling WLG's number everyday since I didn't receive my money and no answer from anyone. I even tried some of the different extensions you guys provided and got no responses either. And finally on Tuesday this week I think it was, the number was no longer any good and the next day their website was gone. These people came in like stealth, and got quite a bit of money from all of us, within what seems like a two week period. Scary!! On the 8th when I didn't receive my refund I went to my bank to shut my account and was told later that the lady sitting behind me waiting had the same thing happen to her by the same people. Small world.

I just got contacted by the BBB on this company. They are trying to track them down. Email me at kdavis60@ca.rr.com if you want me to give him your information for him to contact also. I am going to refer him to this site so he might contact all of you. If we all stick together and give them any and all information we have they may be able to find them and get them for what they did and we all might get our money back. I for one would also like to sue them for the 5000.00 that they promised me in the first place. Because of them I lost a chance at a job that I needed to buy equipment for so as a result I am jobless at the moment. I also am two months behind on my rent and in danger of becoming homeless because I have no where else to go. I want to get these jackasses for what they have done and make the rest of the scammers out there that we will NOT stand by and let them do this to us or anyone else any longer!

I filed a complaint with the FBI and BBB... I dont think we will ever see the $$$, (no crying now), but I too am throughly pissed and had to burrow that $ from other people to "secure my loan"... The FBI says KEEP ALL DOCUMENTS... including reciepts and faxs. Filling out the complaint online was easy and took me maybe 20 mins. If enough of us rally we can raise some eyebrows, especially if their fraud hits a certain $ amount. Unfortunetly, if they have disconnected their phone and the web site is through, we may have missed our chance, and they will just start again under a new name in a new city.

Lesson #1 Never give money when u are trying to receive it!!!

I do hope some justice comes of this...

Now lets all spit in the name of WESTON LENDING GROUP...THOSE MOTHER F*****S

Sadly these stories are all very framiliar to me as I too got scammed... Are there any ways to litigate as a group in an attempt to recoup even a portion of the monies lost? It seems like they got us all in such a short window of time.

I to got it from Jared Givins at Weston Lending Group. Asked plenty of questions about them to see if they were Scamers. They always had their butts covered. As of last week the phone rang only to a voice mail and this week when you call the number all you get is a message that says GOODBYE. They also had a website, it went down as of yesterday. So someone is on their tail. Contacted authorities in U.S and in Canada. This is a lesson well learned. Best wishes to all who go it.

I unfortunatley too am in the situtaion you all are in and completely depressed that there are people out there that can do that to people. I have 5 kids and just wanted to finally get ahead and not have to work so many hours and to have a little emergency fund and now I am having to work even more and figure out how I am gonna feed my kids. I talked with a Michael Watts and a Bradley Moore. I hope they are caught and go to prison for a long time!!!

I to got took for $4, 000.00, I went online and I thought I had checked them out, I looked for anything about this company and there was nothing...since they called I assumed it was legit. They posted a business online, and noone investigates business posted... don't we have an Internet police that checks out companies? Or that company's have to post or have the site request their business license and have that posted so we can check them out when their isn't anything other wise posted...These people thrived on screwing us all, they saw us all at our lowest point on needing financial help, so it was like they reeled us all in... I'm just sick I assumed that their wasn't away of any so called company's of being able to do such thing again with out proof of being a legit business and have to show documentation to someone their has to be some kind of law that requires such...this was so easy for them, they just called us all up and we gave them our hard earned and some borrowed funds, like me to be able to get there loans in return they would pay back whom they borrowed from...I'm just blubbering out, I'm so upset and I may not know what I'm talking about, but how in this time and age can this happen?
It seems so easy anyone can post anything bogus rip people off, until people like us post messages to beware it's a scam...Sooooo now what can I/we do as a team to help us all to try to get our money back or get these guys... and any future scammers///////can someone email me back? and keep me informed what I should do?

I was out of town last week and just got back. Was supposed to get my refund on July 9 and that did not happen. I will be filing out the complaint sights for US and Canada.

I tried calling yesterday and gave my name. Got told customer svc was unavailable. Tried just now and said I was calling to check status of a refund and no one would answer that call either.

The same thing happened to me. They took me for 3315.00. I reported to the BBB, the FBI and the Attorney General. I have tried calling all day and get no where. I also reported the person I sent my money to Trisha Harton to Money Gram. Now she is unable to pick up money anywhere. Since they have a copy of my drivers licence I was told to put a fraud alert on my credit report that way anyone trying to do anything they have to contact me first. The number for that is 1-800-680-7289. This will keep me safe for at least 90 days.

I also submitted a complaint to the F.B.I. It was easy and i recommend that everyone else do the same so they realize the seriousness of this issue.
