Eastwood Financial Services Informative - Eastwood Financial Ltd. - Not Same as Eastwood Financial Services
I am a Mortgage Broker from Toronto Canada. Our company is called Eastwood Financial Ltd. We have nothing to do with the scam recently reported, that appears to come from someone using Eastwood Financial Services. As a mortgage broker in Ontario I have a great reputation, so imagine my dismay when I found out about the scam run by someone using a similar name to our firm.
Our lawyers made a check on the Corporate name before we registered, and found no conflict - until now. This scam must be recent. Our firm never takes fees up front for any service, and we are carefully monitored and regulated.
Sorry to hear that someone using a similar name is causing you damage. You are welcome to check us out at www.eastwoodfinancial.com I just wanted to make sure no one mistook us for the scammer out there. We are also registered with the Financial Services Commission of Ontario at FSCO. ca I doubt the same can be said about the scammer.

The website address you supplied says that a page is "coming soon." There's nothing to check out. You probably don't have to worry anymore, from other posts it sounds like the scammers changed their name to Baywood Lending Services.

You would think a legitimate business defending their name could do better than advising people to check them out on a "coming soon" website. Not exactly a great bell ringer there.

From Broker at Eastwood Financial Ltd. (NOT EASTWOOD FINANCIAL SERVICES LTD.)For those who went to our site to see who we are, to try to ascertain our firm's legitimacy - VS. the Confidence men out there - I agree that the site should be up and running by now. But all businesses, especially new registrations, take some time to prepare a proper, functional website. We were not aware of the Fraudulent Pseudonym out there, so try to be patient with us. We are simply reacting to an unfortunate situation. You can always check us out with the Government Regulator at www.fsco.ca
