Associated Capital Advance - Sandy Hoffman This company is a fraud! Do NOT send them money! Southfield Michigan
I should have checked this company out more thoroughly. They are thieves, as others have stated. I have now found more information online, including a copy of a "Cease and Desist" order in Illinois.
I answered a "Craig's List" ad for a loan agent. I spoke on the phone with someone named Jerad Martin, who sang the praises of the company, overstated the leads and the compensation that I would receive. I was told to send a cashier's check (first bad sign) and I would receive leads for my area. After I got my first application, the $1400 would be returned to me.
After I sent my check, they now said that I had to submit one application before getting my leads, but they were all ready to go. The leads never arrived. This business is a scam. When I tried to contact them, they do not answer the phone or emails.
I would like to sue them in Small Claims Court in California, but cannot find thier "authorized agent". Does anyone know if they are even licensed in California?!
Live and learn. These "cockroaches", as someone else called them, deserve to be in prison!
