I saw an ad in the local Green Tab for a number to call if you need a loan. So I called and it turned out to be the Mark West Investment Group. I gave them the information and got approved for the loan. They told me to fax them identification information: drivers license, utility bill, and a check stub. Then they faxed papers to me about the loan and the amount of the loan and loan details. I was then required to send them $ 450 dollars via western union to cover the first 3 monthes of the payment. It also cost me $40 to send the money. They were then suppose to deposit my check of $5, 000 and also a reinbursement of the $40 within 12-24 hours into my checking account. It has been 3 days and I still have not recieved my money. I have been trying to call the two number that I have several times all day long for the last 3 days and I have gotten "due to high volume calling we can not take your call..." and the other number of the loan officer I was assigned, Tom Keith, I also get an answering machine but with a different message.
