BBB Warns Consumers to be Aware of Great Liberty Capital

The Better Business Bureau, Inc. Serving Eastern Massachusetts, Maine, and Vermont has uncovered another alleged advanced fee loan scam. On October 4, 2005 the BBB announced its findings of an investigation of Great Liberty Capital, allegedly located at 225 Franklin Street, Boston, Mass, 02110. The company’s website states that Great Liberty Capital offers a variety of business and personal loans, including residential loans. The company appears to run an advanced fee loan scam promising loans to consumers after the consumer first wires or mails a check for a portion of the loan to the company.

"Many consumers have contacted us with concerns," said Kevin J. Sanders, Executive Vice President of the Better Business Bureau, Inc. Serving Eastern Massachusetts, Maine, and Vermont. "Consumers should not wire, overnight mail or send money in order to obtain a loan of this nature."

Advance fee loan scams typically originate from an advertisement promising guaranteed loans, even for consumers with bad credit. When the consumer pursues the offer, they are often "approved" for a loan but are required to pay a fee for processing, insurance, or partial payment BEFORE they receive the loan, and must provide personal information to the company. Consumers who fall for these scams pay the fee and give out their information, then wait for the loan to arrive either directly into their bank account or by check. The loan never arrives, and attempts to reach the company on the consumer’s behalf fail. Advanced fee loan scam victims are often people most in need of extra cash and willing to ignore warning signs for promises of easy money.

Consumers searching the web looking for loan companies have stumbled across this company’s website at www.greatlibertycap.com. The website states that they offer many types of loans, and consumers with good or bad credit may apply. The company offers a loan application form online which requests personal information such as birth date, gross annual income, and social security number, all on a non-secure webpage. The Bureau strongly recommends people do not enter personal information on a non-secure webpage.

As of 09/30/05 the Massachusetts Division of Banks has confirmed that the company is not licensed by the "Division" to operate as a loan company. The company is also not registered to do business in the state of Massachusetts. It does not appear that the company is operating out of the Boston address provided, and one consumer stated that they were instructed to wire their loan fee to Vancouver, Canada. According to the Division of Banks, an investigator visited the 225 Franklin address in Boston and was unable to locate the company. The Better Business Bureau has requested basic information from this company and to date has not received a response.

The BBB warns the public to be careful and not fall prey to this company’s apparent scheme, as well as other advance fee loan offers that seem to flood the marketplace. Always check out lenders and other companies before doing business. If you think you have been a victim of this scam or others like it, file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau at www.bosbbb.org.
