I too was scammed by Equi Mark Lending Group for $1000. I was stupid also looking for a way to make things easier and Christmas for my children. I have contacted Plattsburgh Police Department and going to contact the FBI in New York and Attorney General,BBBureau and any one else I can get to listen. Post these warnings anywhere you can and spread the work so no one gets scammed like we did. I dealt with Kelly Young and Carla Hanson, and they are really good but with all our help together maybe we can stop this or recover at least some of our money. My money was sent western union to Shawn Biggs and I believe you have to show ID to receive money so maybe there is a way to stop this. I will not stop calling these people until they have their number changed or disconnected and I encourage you to do the same. I told them I was contacting all of the agencies above and they hung up on me. Oh well tomorrow is another day and they will hear from me again and again and again. I will not give up and hope the rest of you will join me in this quest for our money and self respect back. I will post numbers for all bureaus that I think we need to contact. thanks
