Things You Should Know About...Advance Fee Loans

 
 Volume/Number:    
 Issuing Agency:   
 Description:  Although most lenders are owned and managed by legitimate professionals, a number of fraudulent lenders misrepresent credit terms. One of their favorite strategies is the advance fee loan. A common advertisement for advance fee loans guarantees that you will obtain a loan or some other type of credit, but you must pay before you apply. Charging advance fees for a loan is illegal: companies cannot ask you to pay for a loan before the loan is made. Consumers should be wary of and ignore offers that guarantee a loan for a fee that must be paid in advance. Legitimate lenders never guarantee or promise a loan before you apply, especially if you have a poor credit history or no credit record at all.
