I'm sure you've probably seen the ads on TV for Western Sky lending. If not, here's the deal. It's loans from an someone with an American Indian tribe with un-Godly terms. Long story short, if you borrow $1,000, you will end up paying back $4,756.56 over 24 months. 234.25% interest.
Anyway, here's my real question. (And no, I'm not planning on doing this. Just curious) Being that these are issued from an Indian reservation, what recourse would they really have if someone defaulted on one of these? It seems to me it would be the same as getting a loan from another country. I can't imagine if I flew to Canada and took out a loan, then turned around and told them to screw off that they could do anything.
