Quick summary on Gavriel Yitzchakov
Gavriel Yitzchakov leads BMF Advance LLC, a merchant cash advance (MCA) company accused of exploiting small business owners through predatory lending and aggressive debt collection. While MCAs are marketed as quick financial solutions, Yitzchakov’s company has been scrutinized for practices that often leave businesses worse off than before.
Predatory Lending Practices
BMF Advance LLC offers MCAs with exorbitant interest rates and hidden fees, trapping businesses in cycles of debt. Repayment structures frequently demand more than a business’s daily earnings, making it nearly impossible for owners to stay afloat. Instead of providing relief, these loans push entrepreneurs deeper into financial distress.
Aggressive Debt Collection Tactics
Reports suggest that business owners behind on payments face relentless harassment through calls and emails. Some claim they have been subjected to threats of legal action or even personal intimidation. The use of fear rather than fair negotiation has raised serious ethical concerns about the company’s collection strategies.
Exploitation of Vulnerable Entrepreneurs
Small business owners often turn to MCAs as a last resort, unaware of the risks. Rather than helping struggling businesses recover, BMF Advance LLC allegedly preys on financially desperate entrepreneurs, pushing them further into hardship with rigid repayment terms and escalating debt.
Legal and Ethical Concerns
The company has been accused of using legal action to pressure business owners without providing clear alternatives. Many entrepreneurs feel forced into compliance, fearing financial ruin. The lack of transparency in these dealings has raised alarms about the company’s ethical standards.
Lack of Oversight & Accountability
Operating in an unregulated industry, BMF Advance LLC continues its questionable practices with little intervention. The absence of strict regulations allows predatory lenders like Yitzchakov’s firm to exploit struggling business owners unchecked.

There was zero transparency in the process. I didn’t realize the true cost of the advance until the payments started hitting my account And once I questioned anything, their tone shifted fast rude pushy, and legally intimidating.

They promise fast cash, but what they don’t tell you is the daily repayment is so steep that you can’t breathe I ended up taking another MCA just to keep up with the first one, and that cycle nearly killed...

BMF Advance's tactics are beyond unethical. They use intimidation and legal threats to coerce small businesses into unfavorable terms.

They promised support, but when I struggled with payments, they bombarded me with threats instead of help. It's predatory.

I took a loan from BMF Advance, and the repayment terms were so aggressive, I barely had any revenue left. Felt like they were bleeding my business dry.
