Is this fraud and if so what degree of fraud
I was aprroved for a loan, but had to pay a insurance policy, I paid 760.00 and had to wire it to Canada, then because of my credit I was to upgrade which cost me another 760.00. eith wiring fees included I spent 1655.10. Never got my loan, was told I was getting a refund check, but I havent received one is this fraud. I have a supposedly legal contract for the loan, but I have not received any money.
Re: Is this fraud and if so what degree of fraud
Hell, yes, this is fraud. Contact the consumer protection division of the Colorado attorney general, as well as the corresponding division of the United States Attorney.
Good luck.
Re: Is this fraud and if so what degree of fraud
If you sent funds outside the US, I'm not sure who has jurisdiction. You should start with the attorney general of CO. Fraud is more of a method than an act. You have "theft by fraud". It's likely to be charged as a 4th class Felony... if you can get personal jurisdiction.
