A few weeks ago I recieved an email from a "Claire McNulty" who said he represented Netwest Financial, offering me a loan. He got my name and email address from aidpage.
I replied to him and told him to send me the details. Meanwhile I checked out Netwest Financial. It turns out to be a legitmitate company with offices in Switzerland. But it is an investement firm that deals in property and business deals, not loans to individuals.
This McNulty character emailed me some phony looking application forms and told me to fill them out and email them him, which I never did. I then recieved an email from someone pretending to be an attorney who said he could process the loan papers for me for $600-800 Us, upfront. Looks like a scam to me.
So beware of offers for low interest loans from someone claiming to represent Netwest Financial. It is phony.
