Broker Fees for Loans

I'm not being funny here, but can someone do a sticky or something about loan companies that charge an upfront fee?! It blows my mind that people still not only fall for this, but also dont do their research before signing up for something like a loan with a company they've never heard of! I'm not going to cast judgement, if you dont know about the scam you dont know about it, but i think it there was a sticky thread called 'Loan Broker Fees' and it was the first thing people saw when coming onto this board it might help! Also if you then Googled 'Loan Broker Fees' it would probably bring the post up. To be honest im sick to death of reading endless posts along the lines of 'you're not the only one, i sent off my cheque to X a month ago and still haven't got a loan'...!!! Ahhhhhhhhh!!

How much money must these companies have made just from people who have posted on this site???? Incredible really, I'm definitely in the wrong game!!!!!! :rotfl:

Cheers
They can't have what you haven't got can they? tell them that and if they say otherwise pretend to be an owl or something.
