Mutual Financial Corporation Los Angeles Reviews

  • Apr 22, 2014

I received a letter I have won the 2nd prize winnings in a second category of the European, African and USA Consumer sweepstakes, in conjunction with the USA Departmental Stores. I had a check with it and said to call a number ot activate the check and further instructions. So I immediately went to the computer to see how this business rated or to check for a scam with Snopes. The company showed with good standing with the Better Business Bureau of Los Angeles and no report on Snopes; so I contacted Lynn Van Marwe listed on the form. I was then directed to deposit this check in my bank. The following day I was instructed to pull $3,600.00 and wire to three people in Venice, Italy; Ana Eze, Marc Eze, and Nancy Orba. I explained to Lynn the check had not cleared yet and I would be liable for the funds. Lynn assured me the check was good and not to worry. I felt this was safe as these funds were going to the addresses listed on the form. So I pulled the $3600.00 out and sent the wires with the funds.

I was then told I need to purchase insurance in order to release the funds. I felt suspicious so I declined. Then the bank called me and the check had not cleared. Now I was liable for the funds. So my account was frozen. I called Lynn and she said she would get the funds retrieved from those offices I had sent them and cover my bank shortage on Thursday. This was Monday. I called on Thursday to see how things were going but no one answered the phone. The following week I did not recieve a check but I got a call from Mark Jensen. He explained that I could not get the funds released unless I paid certain fees. He said I wouldn't have any recourse for getting funds released without providing these other fees dealing with insurance. So I followed through with those funds and he said UPS would deliver the certified check on Monday morning 3/17 before noon. No UPS came on Monday. Now when I call the number for Mark Jensen I get a message that says Magic Jet the person you are calling is unavailable please leave a message. When I call Lynn Van Marwe's has two numbers listed 1-877-826-3624 or 1-845-345-6557 The first number no longer works but the sencond number also repsonds with Magic Jet please leave a message.

I have now lost $2,000.00 and I'm indebted for $3600.00 for the fraudulent check.
