I was told by Advance America that I would be receiving 3,000 dollars in my bank account but first they had to deposit 840.00 in to my account and identify me and then once the money was in my account they would withdraw it and send me the 3,000 dollars but my bank account was closed because it was a scam that the bank said it was. And then today I got a phone call from the same person who wanted me to send them 100.00 dollars to transfer the loan amount to Western union and when I didn't buy into it they hung up on me

Send me supposed documents to my email (loan contract) to be signed, one it was very poorly written, with lots of improper grammar and typos, also they wanted my bank account login info; user id and password . If you fall for something like this I am very sorry .NO COMPANY AT ALL WILL EVER ASK YOU FOR YOUR BANK LOGIN INFORMATION. Company’s always use plaid or a legitimate 3rd party to link your bank securely , if you give them your account login and password you are giving these scammers direct access to your bank to be able to control it move money and lock you out . Please people don’t fall for this kind of scam. These people are praying on your desperation , no matter how bad it gets , if it sounds too good to be true , it is .

They pretended to be from Advance America and they deposited money in a fake account and asked for me to send the amount of $1,325.96 back using Cash App. Which I did not do and now they are nonstop calling and texting.

Took my information and said she would call me back. Unfortunately, that didn’t happen and did my research. Called the store that was at a different number and she does not work there.

Received a text message from a 323 number with an attached image showing approval of a loan of $10,000. Within an hour, received a voicemail as well stating the same! obvious scam.

I thought I was approved for a loan through Advance America, I was told to make a $166 payment to secure the loan, then a $201 payment for business transaction, then another $251 for security deposit due to my credit score is low, then asked for a closing cost of $175. (Never gave).

They sent me a offer by text but on the invoice there was no address as now I look at it closer. They want to give me a loan for 10,000 but I told them I need 13,000. Same as a lot of people on here, told me I needed insurance.. They were going to deposit 408 in my checking account and I had to go to Walmart and pay the insurance money before my loan was deposited into my account. I checked my account this morning but didn't see anything. I'm hoping I didn't get scammed. I'm going to close my account this morning when the bank opens. I should of known they were asking for my passwords and stuff. My debit card number with the cvc code. I hope I didn't get scammed please don't let it happen to you

The company is ADVANCE AMERICA. They stated they would provide me a personal loan and then they took my information and a DON WATSON (Scammer). Now all my banking has and is frozen.

John Carter loan officer advance America offered a 10000 loan at 10% for 60 mo 76 mo. Sent loan document and I need to set up online banking with PNC bank. John said needed account routing debit card numbers. I told him and he attempted to set it up with PNC they would do it. Then John said have another account I said yes. bofa he then had me talk with Mr Martin who wanted all the info again. When he asked me to call BofA and order a debit card and got pushy when I said it will be here in four days. He wanted to know what that number was going to be. I got upset and said you guys are trying to steal from me. I don't want the loan and don't call me again im reporting you. Mr Martin have a nice day and hung up. Also I noticed the number was a mobile # not a office#.

Thank you

Paula Mosby

I was applying for a personal loan on the internet, i was contacted by many via email or text message. I received a text message that I was approved for a loan with Advance America, I called the number on my phone 954-694-6461 and they said I need to fill out another form to transfer money into my account, I did that, then I was called again saying I need to transfer part of that back to verify that it was my account. They sent $3700.00 and wanted it all back. Since my bank would not allow more than $499 out, I could only use Zelle. So the company gave me a persons name and number to send it to, so it was sent. I needed to call my bank to send the rest and they said it was a scam. They closed my account, opened another for me and transferred all money to the new account. Eventually the scammers were able to get the full amount of the money they original sent to me ($3700) plus the $499 sent thru Zelle.

I began receiving text saying should they proceed with my loan for $9,000. I wanted to clear that and was looking for consolidation loan but this just seemed too good to be true I have gone through banks and other sites and was not approved. I then began to receive texts from a number that would not answer when I call trying to get information about me continuing with the loan.

These scammers acted as the business Advance America, on which I thought I was I was getting a reasonable loan. Always check the email they use. That was not the case, instead they used my information to get into my bank account and deposit fraudulent checks and then quickly remove them through Apple Cash/Zelle. I had banked through USAA, I had lost almost $3000, and was told by USAA that since these scammers had moved/spent the money that it was my responsibility when the checks were returned, hence losing the $3000. Please be aware.

Received an email showing how much I could get and how much my monthly payment would be. I printed off 8 pages describing how they do business. I called the loan officer as instructed and gave them the loan approval code listed in the email. I was directed to someone else who gave me instructions on what I needed to do. This woman mentioned that I needed to go to Walmart and get 2 gift cards after withdrawing a set amount of monies. At this point, I was suspicious and checked with the ScamPulse.com online and saw where they had an A+ rating. I then followed through with the instructions. Several days had transpired and through many phone calls, I was assured the money would be deposited Then one day I looked at my bank account .and found that I was overdrawn! I contacted my bank to report the scam and had my account closed.
