I got an email from my university about outside funding. But, I'm afraid its a scam and they are pretending to be a loan agency.....

I would never give out that information via emial especially if requested by some party you are not familar with. Just call the Fin aid department and ask them about the email. I think they are just fishing.

Wow! That talking monkey is just a wee bit creepy! "Who's the ad wizard that came up with that one!"

The site screams, "SCAM," and I would stay away unless you can get confirmation that it is legit.
