I just got scammed by Equimark Lending Group today to the tune of $1650. I feel like such an absolute fool. The money I sent in was borrowed from a friend, and I haven't told him yet. This was going to be a glorious holiday;debt-free catch up on bills, etc. I am a single mother whose credit is bad, and I suppose I really just wanted to believe this was the answer. I really don't know how I am going to pay my friend back. I hope that no one else ever has to go through this!
