It's an eerily familiar tale. I forked out the initial payment and then wired another £180 through MoneyGram to an individual in Delhi, who assured me that the funds would hit my bank account within four hours. Shockingly, that did not materialise, leaving me £290 poorer. To make matters worse, this number has gone silent on us. Then, out of the blue, a chap rang up claiming we could retrieve the funds via another MoneyGram at the post office, but this would require yet another £285. I firmly told them, "No, just transfer the money to my bank or send a cheque." That seemed to set him off, and he promptly hung up. Has anyone managed to track down a physical address for these characters? All this money heading to India feels distinctly dodgy to me.

The police in Leicestershire are currently looking into a complaint regarding a quick loan company based in London that operates using this number. It appears that they've received funds via money transfer but have failed to provide the loan that was supposedly arranged. It's advisable to refrain from sending money through transfers unless it’s to trusted friends. Always ensure you acquire a code and share it solely with the person receiving the funds, but only after you've confirmed exactly what you’re paying for.

Regarding our earlier note, it appears that the company QUICK LOANS is at it again. I've received yet another call, this time tantalisingly offering a money transfer. Surprise, surprise-nothing ever materialised! It's quite disheartening, to say the least. They seem to be constantly on the hunt for more victims to fleece with their loan offers. I sincerely hope the authorities take decisive action to revoke their operating licence soon.

Could it be that she’s the person our girlfriend was chatting to just a few hours back? Honestly, this is starting to wear us thin.

Earlier today, we fell victim to these con artists who had us send £70 via Western Union, dangling the carrot of a £1500 payout in just twenty minutes. Naturally, as you might expect, we received nothing and can’t get in touch with them. I tell you, when we eventually do, they’ll be in for a rude awakening. It’s utterly preposterous, considering that most folks seeking loans are already strapped for cash; if I had the funds, I wouldn’t even be looking for a loan in the first place!

The comments made by 'Peter' clearly reek of a scam artist. One can easily deduce this from the appalling grammar used. At present, there seems to be a gaggle of these unscrupulous tricksters perpetrating the same ruse. It's paramount that you never, under any circumstances, part with your cash in advance based on the empty assurances of a loan. You’ll find yourself empty-handed, with no hope of retrieving your funds.

I had a troubling experience with the Manchester Police regarding this situation, and I fear there's little hope of getting your funds back. It appears that the scam originated from a call centre in India, completely detached from the UK. The individual behind it was a chap who seemed quite pleased with himself for duping Brits, almost as if it was some sort of revenge for decades of British colonialism. I believe it’s high time that all businesses in the UK reassess their associations with Indian call centres. They are not only misappropriating our data but seem to be having a good chuckle at our expense! C6T9

I've recently encountered a similar situation, although the individuals in question are going by Victor and Richard Johnson. They required an upfront payment of £58 in order to process a £1500 loan. We made it clear that we are a single mother relying on benefits and were quite anxious about the prospect of being scammed. Even after we reached out to them for clarification, insisting on a timeline for the loan disbursement, they assured us it was all above board. They claim to be based in Manchester, yet the chap I spoke to had a distinctly foreign accent. We should have been more cautious and asked these questions earlier on.

I’ve just had a right nightmare with this number! Initially, we forked out £165, and they promised us the funds would be in our account. Well, surprise, surprise, nothing ever showed up. We gave them a bell again, and they then demanded another £260! We said enough was enough, and wanted to call it quits and get our cash back. They told us we’d have to wait a staggering 14 weeks to see anything returned. What a shambles!

Earlier today, we received a rather suspicious call regarding a quick loan. A chap named Steven Patel was on the line, requesting a sum of £160 through some rather dodgy private transaction heading to Delhi, India. He mentioned a person named Chinbat Chinzorig, and honestly, we found the whole thing a bit laughable. There's absolutely no way we're forking out cash for this nonsense! Let them deal with it themselves-utter cheek! What a bunch of muppets.

I received a call from the number 01618840935, and I must say, it’s a complete scam. Never, I repeat, never hand over any money upfront when it comes to loans. It seems that individuals, often portraying themselves with English-sounding names, are trying to pull a fast one on unsuspecting folks. So, do yourself a favour and keep your cash close - don’t let them trick you!

We made it clear that I’m a single mother relying on benefits and were quite anxious about the possibility of being conned.

They claimed to be based in Manchester, yet the chap I spoke to had an accent that seemed somewhat foreign. We only started having doubts after the fact!
