Prosper - P2P loans

[theSPOOLER]

Has any tried lending money on Prosper.com? I didn't dig into it too much, but some of the interest rates were double digits.. I also didn't look into what kind of protection they offer, probably none, but an interesting concept never the less if your a risk taker.

I want to revive this thread to re-ask the above question.

It is about P2P loans: Is there anything like www.prosper.com in Canada?

Also has anyone with Canadian bank accounts signed up with Prosper? What do you think?

Sounds a bit philanthropic and a bit RFD - both at the same time!
