I came across this company called sky finance. I wanted to buy a car and applied with them. After completing all the applications I got approved for finance of a R153400. "Terrence and taylor " who I spoke to dead I must pay R9200 deposit into sky finance bank account which was called west way cc. I did that and can't get hold of them since then. They have send me proof of payment to which they sopposenly transfered money to the motor dealer in Pretoria . The proof of payment is not legit. I have all documentation, messages. |

I am also a victim who never going to give up anytime soon until these guys are caught.I was scammed and tried to seek help from the Saps through organised crime but to no avail.We tried through private investigaters to find the culprits through the FICA and through their bank accounts but all the information seems to be based on fack documents used to open accounts in some cases stolen identities. At some point we ended up apprehanding an innocent young man from Zimbabwe only to find out his documents where stolen.Its so frustrating how these people get to be smart but surely one day is one day.any help will be appriciated.

Hi Steve,
Could you please email me the full details of this incident! I am in shock to hear that there are scammers associating and using our name and will put top priority to investigate this from my side.
We were busy with SEO changes last night and i stumbled across this listing by chance.

Kevin if your company is not linked to fraud, how do you justify why we are not allowed to talk to you directly, only strictly via email? Your receptionists become very edgy when we call in to talk to a consultant. That doesnt make sense to me. Your own email address does not have contact numbers or a company address. WHY IS THIS!?

Dear Musa,
We are certainly not linked to any fraud and there has not been a single case of any criminal activity associated with our company... Ever! This report is based on a crime committed by Sky Finance , not Gallardo! Remember that ... We process everything electronically and once any of our clients are approved one of our consultants are in contact to complete the approval.

My incident
Not sure how I found them but what happend I was emailed car finance application form which I filled and after a day I was approved R115000 to which I had to pay 5% deposit of the total cost of the car value of my choice, I settled on a car worth R8000, I got a quote from a dealership and emailed to them and a pre contract was emailed to me and I paid R5000 and that was the last I heard from them, after I failed to contact them I went into fnb their bank and my bank to explain they looked into the first fin account to find its not a company but a certain lady in sunny side, the person who was fascilitaing the the finace his name was Terrence Mpako he said, they use a land line 0127720872 tommorow ill open a case this people must be brought to book

I have also had a brief encounter with Garllado Finance, Musa and am awaiting feedback for my application and I think if you apply with them, like most of us here, it is because you are blacklisted. People like Kevin are trying to help people like you and I who are in this unfortunate situation to get help, so let's not make assumtions and accusations unless u have valid info like the rest of the guys on this post. Let's not allow a few rotten apples to ruin the reputation of innocent/honest business people, gentlemen.

I am also a victim of this sick scam.It happened in October 2011,i got info about this company called Sky Finance,they said they help people who are blacklisted with car finance.They were so proffesional,even gave me their work adress,they said they situated in Pretoria in Montana Gardens.They told me because i'm in Joburg i can apply online.I did that,and deposited R3000 into their account which was West Way cc.A collegue of mine deposited R10000 same day with.They emailed me my contract and proof of payment,i ended up fighting with the guy who works at the garage because i got a quatation from them.The guys name was Thomas,after two weeks thats when we realised that we were scammed,we went to Pretoria to look for them but that address didnt exist.We went to the cops in Sandton Morningside,but even now we havent heard a word fro them.People really need to be careful about such things.

I found the company on gumtree (First Finance), I contacted Terrance Mpako and he sent me the First Finance application form which I completed and I was approved, I have since tried to make contact with them to finalize the deal however I tried the 0127720872, 0127516453 number which rings of the hook and finfirst@webmail.co.za email address.........only to realize this is a SCAM!! I hope these bastards are behind bars hence the reason I can't get hold of them!

Hi guys,
I am their latest victim! This wednesday the 27th 6eb, I paid R12 000 deposit and the following day, they are unreachable! I called the dealer and they told me no one has been in contact with them or made a payment! The bastards are taking advantage of desperate people who wish to own cars but can't qualify for finance! I will be going to open a case today as this website have confirmed my suspicion that I have been defrauded!
I wish and hope to god that other people can someone get to know about this scammers and not fall into the same pit of hell!!
I have been on maternity leave and unable to run around so doing the application electronically seemed like a great option then, only if I knew!! I went to great lenghts to come up with that deposit and now I am just left high and dry! I hope the bastards are brought to book before scamming other innicent people. I fail to understand why this Terrence Mpako can't be caught since he has been using the same details all this time!

I was also scammed by this company First Finance Terrence Mpako with landline 0127720872. What a bastard!!! I paid R6050.00 deposit to them. They also have an add on gumtree under blacklisted vehicle finance. I have followed so many leads and all of them is a dead end, they are robbing all of us, we need to do something about this. Their NCR number belongs to First Finance Corporation and all the details provided is false, it belongs to some insurance company who have moved from Bellvile to Pretoria in August 2012. I had to pay this money into a Nedbank account. I am going to open a case tomorrow and call my attorney.
