So how big was this ? - Just from the 9 Loan ID's I have that look to have been hit they look to have netted $58,375 - And thats just what I know about from harmoney. Does any one else have any other loan ID's hit that I dont have listed above?

Hi CR111
Were any of your 6 loan ID's different to my 9? I want to know how big this is?

So names given in comments are
Laura
Kurt
Christina
Cristie
Courtney
Emily
Natalee
So does this mean that the borrower managed to produce documentation and ID for all of these names? Or does it mean that harmoney does not check to see if the comments contain majorly incorrect and blatantly FALSE information

@Monica, I'd also be interested to know about loan 53460.
For those lucky enough not to have this loan, it has also been written-off only a couple of months after being issued, although they did make one payment, so perhaps not part of the fraud that has been mentioned. But still concerning that a loan can be written-off so quickly, it suggests to me that something a bit strange has happened.
No matter the cause of these write-offs, is it surprising they have been written-off? Does it suggest the person involved is not even in NZ, as if they were local and had been tracked down I would have thought there is some potential for getting some money back. It also makes me wonder about the processes used by Harmoney to verify the identity from NZ drivers license or passport, confirm their bank account exists, credit checks, income etc.

Grade F and Grade E notes, even with their high interest rates, are not for the faint hearted, no matter how good the credit check system. At least if you are investing in the notes through a business, you should be able to deduct the write-offs from taxable income. It will be interesting to see the next statistics release to see if the write-off rate is still tracking under Harmoney's original predictions.
