A reader just submitted a scam report on a company called Manchester Capital Trust.
The consumer noticed that there were some similarities between the website of Manchester Capital Trust and a previously uncovered advanced fee loan scam site of Bellview Financial Group.
The submitter is correct. The two sites did use a substantial amount of the same text on the sites.
Consumers lost a significant amount of money in the advanced fee loan scam with Bellview Financial Group. The loan documents Bellview Financial Group presented appeared to be legitimate but once consumers paid advanced fees to get the loan, the participants vanished and the loan was never received.
These advanced fees were typically paid via Western Union to out of the United States locations.
The current crop of sites similar to Bellview Financial Group include:
Manchester Capital Trust – manchestercapitaltrust.com
Cornerstone State Financial – cornerstone state.com
Sanders Austin – sandersaustin.org
Wagner Grant Financial – wagnergrantfinancial.com
Wilson Thomas Financial – wilsonthomasfinancial.com
Wakefield Financial – wakefieldfinancial.net
Peachtree Capital Trust – peachtreecapitaltrust.com
South Atlantic Commerce – southatlanticcommerce.com
Nobleton Lending – nobletonlending.com
Harbor Equity Group – harborequitygroup.com
If you are thinking of using any of these companies, proceed with caution and verify they are legitimate. Do not pay any advanced fee for a loan.

Now, compare the above sites to the Bellview Financial Group site I previously reported on.
Not only are the sites similar, they are almost damn near identical.
Since I exposed the international connection with the Bellview Financial Group server the current servers are not located outside the U.S. In fact the server and domain information of the active sites are located at:
