Help!!!! Loans for Bad Credit

in Loans
I am a 43 year old man working 24 hours a week from Borehamwood Herts, earning £700 per month. I have total debts of £10,000, through both my credit card and bank overdraft. I have just been scammed out of £690 by a non-legitimate loan company (easy loans). I was trying to borrow £5000 as a friend of mine has been in hospital in Nigeria and needs £5000 to pay the hospital before coming home. She will give me everything she owes me as soon as she comes home.
I also have a bad credit rating and live with my parents.
Please Help!!!!

Theres no such thing
you cant get a loan with bad credit, especially not £5000, and especially not with the amount of debt you already have.
you already have more debt than your annual salary, and £5000 wouldn't really be possible to get on your salary even if you had no debt0 -

Is this an "internet friend" per chance?
In all seriousness, there are no such thing as "bad credit" loans.
You have a bad credit record and are already in debt that is more that your annual salary.
Sorry, it's not going to happen. Ever.0 -
i REALLY hope your joking. if not then cut all your cards ect. send me all your spare cash and i will spend whoops send it to her.
sadly some folks do find hemselves conned i don't find it funny. dumb but not funny.
oh why not send me your bank account details or debit card numbers and i will send you the money honest.0 -
Alas, whilst the op sounds genuine, it does sound suspiciously like an "internet friend". I hope "she" does not turn out to be a strapping 6ft "he" !0

At least its a Nigeria as the crime rate their is very low and Internet scams are unheard of.
Sounds pretty genuine;)"You know when it's cold outside when you go outside and it's cold"0 -

You have just admitted to "been scammed out of £690"
Are you a glutton for more punishment?
Your "friend" is giving you a sob story because she knows you are a soft touch. She will take you for the biggest ride she can.
Never loan money to any friends. Period.
Concentrate on paying off your own debts and don't be a mug.0 -
OP you want to help your friend but how much do you trust her to not scam you ?
You have already been bitten and I can see it happening twice which isn't something you want to happen.
Re the 690 you say you were scammed out of, have you looked into getting the money back ? How did it get to £690 ?0 -
