Dear Kraisorn,
We are writing to you regarding a possible security breach on our website that could potentially have resulted personal data being accessed by scammers.
We are not 100% sure that this is the case and we are currently investigating any website vulnerabilities that may have allowed this to happen but, in the meantime, we felt the need to inform you immediately of the problem ... and how to avoid being scammed if you have been affected.
A number of our customers have stated that they have been contacted by someone different to the broker that we referred them to ... claiming to have received the customer's details from our website.
This fraudulant broker appears to be operarting under various names - and is telling people that their loan is approved subject to the upfront payment of a loan insurance premium.
Then, once the insurance premium has been paid, the scammer suddenly becomes uncontactable - and there is no loan.
It is important to note that you should NEVER be required to pay money upfront to have your loan finalised and you should not be lured into doing so under any circumstances.
We have been in communication with both The Australian Federal Police and with the Australian Securities & Investments Commission ... both of whom have informed us that this scam appears to be an international fraud and is effecting many online businesses such as ours - both here in Australia as well as overseas.
Your loan enquiry was referred by us to Rate Detective and to no-one else. Contact details for Rate Detective are included below. We recommend their services to you and stand by that recommendation. They will not ask you for any form of payment upfront for a loan.
However, should you be contacted by anyone else, or if you are being offered a loan that requires an upfront payment of any description, you should be very sceptical and we ask that you contact us immediately before having any further communication with them.
The best way to communicate with us is via http://www.no-credit-check.com.au/contact.php.
We are sorry to have to alarm you in this way - but forewarned is forearmed!
Thank you for your understanding.
