I have been working with Eastgate lending for 2 months to buy a house. They had me sent $11,000.00 to Madrid spain via western Union. I was told to call them this morning to find out when my loan transfer would go through. When I called this morning they said that the number was disconnected!!! I am a single mother and a college student. That $11,000.00 was more than I had. This will probably put me and my family out on the street!! Is there anyone that can help me? Please

east gate lending services.about a loan i apply for

Their a 100 percent scam artist company. Vanguard or Eastgate or whatever they call themselves doesn't matter, they are criminals stealing people's money. Anytime, and I repeat ANYTIME someone wants you to send money up front, specifically cash wired overseas , in order to secure a loan, it is ALWAYS a scam. I repeat; 100 percent of the time. This is not , and never wil be the way legit lending institutions operate. Please be aware of this always and let your family and friends know .

you people use your heads.  sorry to hear about your loses but im going to tell you who to get a hold of and thats the federal trade commission they deal with people like this all the time and protect the consumers so there it is good luck

East Gate is an advance-fee loan scam out of Canada. Do not send any money.

Who do we contact about this? I am out of close to $4000 and i want my money NOW!!!!

I am w/ya, terry!!  If there is one thing I am gonna do, is put an end to the scams out there.  I am pissed off!

they got 711.00 from me and i want my money back from someone

Speaking with a lady name Christine Dansby from Vanguard Mutual Group.  She wanted me to pay for 6 months on a $10,000 loan before they would cut the check.  6 months = $1407.68...I asked if I could wire the money and of course the answer was yes.  When given the info to wire, it was to be sent to Jamaica.  I was already skeptical of this loan, but became more skeptical after the Jamaica thing.  I did research and found an article stating that this Vanguard Mutual Group used to be Crimson's Lending (or something close to that).  I called Christine and confronted her on this and she became very defensive with me.  She has agreed that I can hand deliver a cashier's check to her instead of wiring the money.  If this is a scam...would she go this far?  To hear a voice over the phone promising you something is a heck of a lot different then meeting face to face.  She has no clue if I am crazy or not and to know where her office is???  That is sad that these crooks go to this measure.  One day, one of these crooks is gonna get hurt.  Now, if I could just get my fiance to believe that this is a scam!!!

I had the same problem. I had sent them almost $2000 for 11 months pre-paid on a $6000 loan and then they told me the lender backed out and they were going to be taking them to court and that I would be getting a refund of my money yesterday via direct deposit. I tried calling the phone number today and it has been disconnected. I also had spoken to a Mr. Fleming a few times and they sounded legit.

Vanguard Mutual Group....  Do not fall for it!!!!!!  I almost lost money through this scam and when told to wire money to Jamaica, I knew right then and there it was a scam!!!!!!

Amanda!!! How did you find out about this place and did the fax you a contract asking you to sign it and fax it back. Who did you speak with. I was always told that I had to dail 0 and that would connect me to the manager Micheal Flemming. Please give more info about what you know. Did the tell you taht they had to send you your money through a wire straight to your account?

I had the same problem dealing with a student loan the had me send over 3,500 to all or these places such as Kingston Jamica and other places.
They told me also that my money (20,000) would be a wire transfer to my account today. I call this morning to speak with Micheal Flemming and the number was diconnected.

The are so convincing.  Don'y beleive them.  Please do not get scammed like me.  There are no real companies out there. Do not give anymoney down.  The money goes especailly western union oh my it will be gone.  They are crooks.  Mean crooks.  They change there names and adresses and telephone numbers to cover their tracks.

Eastgate Lending Services, Jesse Wilson X419. Says they got my loan application from an online service. Had way too much information about me.

I had not applied with them yet he assured me they had my loan approved for exactely what I needed????? Website originally showed Eastwood Financial on the Home page. Eastwood has a trail of loan fraud and scams. Jesse claims there is no connection between them (Easgate) and Eastwood.

Are these people legit? Why can't I Find any information about them on line?

I had apply for a loan online and a James Swanson from Eastgate lending services told me that he have a $5000 loan approved for me all I had to do is send him the first 4 months payment which is $625.52. I'am not going to do it because it sounds to good to be true.

I tryed to look up Eastgate on BBB but there was no record of the comapany

Cerina Alicia Lee ended up with my money $1100 for a fake $7000 loan. Eastgate Lending Services agent: Ben Davis.  I sent the money via Western Union OCT 2, 2009 to Kingsfield, Jamacia, The bogas company adress is 45 Exchange BLVD, Rochester NY 14614

eastgate and vanguard are the same and are scams stay away

I got a loan agreement faxed to me by vanguard mutual group.  They said I was approved for big amount and need to pay 1000 to recieve the full loan.  I can't find anything bad about vanguard anywhere.  How do you know for sure there a scam?  It's hard when you need the money and don't know who to trust.

yup same thing happened to me only i actually sent the money-----twice. now i am out 2020.00 which includes the western union fee that i was aupposed to get back with the loan. i have contacted my local police and filed with ic3.gov. we need to get this word out to more people so this doesnt happen to anyone else

HUGE SCAM... now Vanguard Mutual Group... talked with Christie... got approved for $7,000... but I had a gut feeling & could not find a website. One conveniently became available while on the phone with "Agent"... now no longer available. I was suppose to mail 6mos worth of payments due to no collateral. I asked to mail a check & she said no wire the money. My mom got suspicious too so I looked further into it & found many scam complaints on this company. I entered the phone number they left on my voicemail. When they actually called it was a blocked number.

I will do all I can do I go on every site to give my testimonial.  The more people who speak out the more people will listen.  Please read all you can and write your story each person can make a difference to stop these dangerious criminals.  Each person matters.  I did not pick up on the red flags like them being extreamly rude and down right mean if you question their company. I want to know that my words stopped you in time before you sent your money.

I am in the same situation I found out too late.  I sent out over $1300 and was promised it would be deposited in my checking account the next day and it still hasn't happened.  It is being supposedly be the ceo of the company.  I also asked Mr. Mitchell about any connection with Eastgate and he told me they were a scam and that he swears that they are a legitimate company and I called Eastgates phone number yesterday and got a voicemail and today I was informed Vanguard Mutual that he informed the authorities and now Eastgate phone # is disconnected but my gut tells me that they're the same I was scammmed and its my own fault

yep i was called also and no offense to person who wired money through western union but if you see that the address is in new york and you had to wire it to Jamaica why send it.  its little flags that set me off. like when i asked him what the website was he started giving a story and then i had to tell him i just needed it just in case i miss the deadline.  and for the company not to be on the BBB.org site with not one complaint something is up which means it is probably a new company cause trust me some one would have complained by now.

Eastgate Lending Services, their adress is bogas.  It is an empty parking lot, 45 Exchange Street, Rochester NY.

I got a call from them stating the same thing. I just got scammed by a hemmingway financial who ran their company the same exact way so if u have to western Union something it is most defenitly a scam stay away

Do you have a telephone number they can be reached at. I got ripped off by these people for $1850.00 If you could get me a number I would be forever grateful. My e-mail is JPriles57@verizon.net Thanku
