My daughter was recently involved in a car accident in which the car was totaled. My ex husband and I do not even talk. He had bought the car for my daughter, however because she still loves me and came to visit her twin 6 year old brothers in Houston, TX..he found out and went nuts. He told her too bad..never came to check on her after the accident (he lived 1 hour away) and told her she is on her own. He doesn't want anythig to do with her ever again. So my daughter contacted me and I told her that her father ruined my credit when we divorced..but I would try to help her with a car. I went on line to apply for a loan for a possible downpayment on a car. I applied with Marquis Financial because they stated they help people with not so good credit. Marquis Financial Contacted me and told me that I was guaranteed for 7500.00 loan. I thought ..great..maybe that money my daughter could just buy a car. Well..after my loan agent" Jennifer Monroe" faxed me the papers to sign and went over the terms..she stated that the "lender" needed a security deposit before the loan will be deposited into my checking account. 954.00 I sent "western union" to a "Marie Lewis" in Canada. With total fees I spent 1040.00 in cash. I questioned Ms. Monroe..."Canada?" she stated that the Canadian Banks have lower interests rate for people like me. I thought..oh..but my daughter needed a car for school and work ( she has 3 jobs to supprot herself and goes to college) so I said ok. I asked about how soon would the money be available in my account and she said..48 hours. Well...3 days goes by...nothing. I called back numerous times and I finally got ahold of Jennifer. She said that she was just going to call me because she had heard form the "lender" and because my credit is so bad...the lender needed another 954.00 before they would release the funds. She further told me the same thing to wire the money to western union to Canada. I argued with her for awhile, but she re-assured me that this time the money would be in 48 hours..which was going to be Monday because we talked on a Friday. I believe that I was more desperate to help my daughter than stupid at this point. I sent my whole paycheck this time. Another 1040.00 totaled with fees. I called on Tuesday because I still did not get the money and Jennifer told me that the "lender" backed out. I started to demand that I get my 2080.00 from them immediately sent by Western Union. I did not want a check because at this point I knew I was scammed. If I got a check..I am sure that it would not be any good. She told me that is against company policy..and that Iwould get my check within 15-30 days. I demanded my money. I told her that 2040.00 is sitting around at "marie Lewis's " house so send it back... Ms. Jennifer hung up on me. I called numerous time and now I don't even get an answer from Jennifer Monroe. Now..I ve lost 2040.00..because I did not want daughter to lose her jobs or miss school..I had to give her 1200.00 to rent a car for 2 weeks. Yes..because she is under aged to rent the car rental place charges an outrageus fee. SO..I want my money back and the 1200.00 for rental fees. At this point..i have to give my daughter another 600.00 to rent a car for this up coming week. That would total 1800.00..With all this money I could have had a down payment for my baby girl. I had to borrow money from my 85 year old mother to pay for daycare expenses and pay for food for the twins. Can someone please help me....and my daughter. I need my money back to help my daughter get a car.....soon..
