YOUNG COUPLE LOSES THEIR LAST $600 TO A FAKE INTERNET SITE Which Compels A STRANGER To APPEAR IN THE PICTURE

Desperate Time, Desperate Measure

The old saying that fits correctly with the couple’s situation is: “desperate times call for desperate measure”. Not everyone can afford a financial advisor but anyone can get free pieces of advice from the people we know. So, Nathan called his mother and they finally agreed on one way that could help them.

A Loan Online

Nowadays we are in the habit of searching for every other thing that pops up on our mind over the internet. Even the couple started googling for loan options and was expecting some good options. After going through a few websites they assumed that they have finally found a trustable organization, but did they?

Co-Signing Mom

Nathan decided to choose his mother who lived in Nova Scotia as a co-sign person. But she couldn’t make it to Moncton just to sign the loan documents and that’s when the couple decided to take help of an intermediary company. They thought it was just another company but they were wrong.

On The First Page

Nathan and Madison were convinced by a New York-based company named EastLiberty Finance Group. The link for this company popped up on the first search page. Yes, we should not completely depend on the internet but what could be the chances that a company that shows in the top results can be a fraud? Anyone would think of it to be a genuine source, correct?

Too Sketchy

“It wasn’t, like, on the 14th page and it’s getting kind of sketchy. It was on the first page,” recalled the couple who discussed among themselves before taking any further actions. They were quite certain to make sure they go through the company terms and conditions before calling their agents for advice.

High Interest

Nathan was aware that the interest rates were quite high but he was supposed to do something for his family. He did his best to check the authenticity of the company. He remembers how everything seemed to be, “very legit”.
