That’s right – if you are being called from this number, 0161 408 2498, then it’s a scam and are they are only after you parting with your money.
We obtained this number from an enquiry we received just a few weeks ago, we were immediately disgusted when we found out that the scammer’s were giving out our website address, www.unsecuredloansforyou.co.uk, and also quoting our company details on emails they send to their potential victims.
These emails would be designed to appear like a loan agreement, confirming the total loan and the term at which it was to be borrowed over, including the monthly payment. These emails were all sent from hotmail or free to sign up email accounts. A good way to notice a scam is through the email address used. A registered company with a website will not use a gmail, hotmail or a yahoo account. It will usually be a suffix of the website. i.e @unsecuredloansforyou.co.uk

Thanks for this post. Got a call from them yesterday and thought it was a bit strange asking for ukash. Read this and know not to give them my money. Thanks again
unfortunately my partner has been taken in by these scammers!!! they actually managed to get him to part with £250 hard earned cash in ukash vouchers and were requesting more when he smelt a rat!!!unfortunately too late,we will prob never see that money again-it was deposit/holding fee for a house we were hoping to rent,and we are also saving for our wedding so we could ill afford to be scammed this way!!! just a note though-they are no longer using that number-we were contacted on 01614083359
