Question

I need to borrow 15,000 but have bad credit.?

It seems that there are hundreds of illegal scams, I have reported one to North Carolina. I have had my credit devastated by my recent (Aug 09) divorce. I am unable to borrow with my credit rating. I can pay the note, but need to find someone who can and is willing to take a chance on me. Does anyone know of true, peer-to-peer private lenders that would help out? Thanks!

I have tapped out my 401(k) loan. I am the HR DIrector of my company. Prosper turned me down because of my credit score, I have contacted a subgroup within that site called HEROES...waiting for a response.

There is a site called prosper.com but the interest rate can be as high as 24% (I've heard on here). Prosper.com also advertises on XM CNBC radio. And I've known about it for at least a year. Best of luck. Do you have a 401K account you can borrow from? If you show hardship to your HR person they will let you borrow up to 50% of your 401K balance. /

I would try the following: www ... www ... www ... All three of these sites help people with bad credit secure loans. LendingClub.com may be a little harder, but its worth a shot.
