First Finance National Ltd. ::: FRAUD

Options
I am being conned by a company assuming identity as mortgage financial advisors.. I am trying to get mortgage for a property I bought and in this process found this advisor online who said she can get better deal, and also gave me decision in principle from a unknown lender telling me its a secondary banking institution,,,, I have paid total amount of 3290 GBP(395 + 2500 + 395) towards services till now, but there is no lender agreement still and I doubt even if any company exists really.. As all communication happend over email/phone , its very hard for me to trace them now.. On googling for company name now, I found there are few other victims like me earlier as well, but am surprised to know this company is still being able to trade and take money from people on all false deals..

    You gave over £3000 to a company without even knowing who and where they were?
    Are you bloody mad?

    Hells teeth! No wonder con artists find life so easy - there really is one born every minute.
    I used to think that good grammar is important, but now I know that good wine is importanter.
