Sync Lending
Scam, Ripoff, Dishonest, Liars

I applied on-line for a personal loan. I received a call from "Elaine Monroe" stating that the loan was approved and I would need to send $3, 000.00 for deposit and insurance. I explained to her that I did not have that much to send, I told her that I could send $1, 000.00. Elaine said she would check and see if that would be acceptable.

She called back and said that would be fine. She gave me the instructions to Money Gram the funds to "Peter Lake", I did exactly what was asked. The money did not show up in my account, so I called back.

At this point I was told that "Keith", the supervisor was handling my account, Keith explained to me that Elaine had misunderstood and I would have to send an additional $1, 250.00, again, fool that I am I sent the Money Gram as requested. (Keith was very smooth... telling me they were doing me a "favor" by approving the loan for only a total of $2, 250.00 deposit and insurance rather than the $3, 000.00 as first stated). Needless to say I did not get my loan money transferred into my account.

So I called back, spoke with "Denise" and demanded a refund, at this point I was told a refund would be sent out within 10 to 14 working days. Of course, time went by (18 days to be exact) I called back and Keith said I would have to speak with "Betty" in accounting, she handled the refunds. So, Betty tells me that my refund has not been processed yet ("Oh, she is just so sorry for the delay), but I would have it within 14 days.

Of course, I still do not have the refund and as I'm sure you folks know, there is no answer at the phone number now and of course I am getting now answer to the e-mails that I have sent.

Bottom line, I am out $2, 250... plus the two Money Gram fees. Folks, I really am not a stupid person, they were just VERY smooth, and had all kinds of explanations and apologies for giving me incorrect information and as I mentioned they were really doing me this "favor" for going ahead and processing the loan for a lesser amount than originally stated. Please, don't fall victim to this scam, as I have.

I cannot tell you all of the problems this has caused me, but it has certainly affected my health and I may even loose my home for falling prey to this scam.

So please, just beware and if you ever get a call from Sync Lending... HANG UP!!

If anyone has any idea of anything that can be done to stop these people or what resources I have to try and recoup any of my money, I certainly appreciate any information.

Thank You!
