We got approved for a loan of $3000.00 from Advance America in Pennsylvania. The loan was approved (so they say) but needed 200.00 security deposit, (which we did). once that was done they said that the transfer couldn't go through b/c of a block to the bank and they needed $198.29, (yep, we did that too). After that they said it was something to do with IRS blocking it and all they need now is $100.00 and the money will be in account in 30 seconds. Well at this point we we're pretty sure it was a scam, but wasn't positive. So, we called back one more time and I even told them that I wasn't sure b/c they kinda seemed like a scam. They assured me they were not. The guy said he loved his job and didn't want to loose it and wouldn't do that. I questioned them on everything and they had great responses so it was iffy, but seemed like it was for real so yes, we went ahead with the $100.00 being told that this was the last step and our money would be deposited in 30 seconds. it wasn't and we are out $500.00 dollars. we want our money and them punished. He claims his name is Tim Carter, but now I have my doubts about that as well. We've been scammed for sure.

I  had initially applied online for a number of loans. I received a text message today from Advance America.  Message said I was approved for $5000 loan. Message stated to call them back. I called the number 718-717-2192. The person that answered was difficult to understand. They Instructed me to Moneygram $212 for insurance. I could barely understand the person I was speaking with.  The call was breaking up also. I had called number twice and thought it was strange I got the same person.

I had been receiving phone calls/emails, a payday loan Cash Advance America, and on the call ID the phone number reads, 1-214-614-9030, the gentleman’s name is Mr. Alex White, his title, Sr. Funding Officer (funding manager). I became very suspicious because he sounded like he was pushing for time, anxious for me to open a new account. He also gave me a list of banks to choose from to open this new checking account, 1USAA Bank, 2Wells Fargo Bank, 3Suntrust Bank, 4Capital One Bank and on one of them I clicked on, “Scams”, read the, “Tips to avoid being scammed.” I followed 4 tips below. I did not file a complaint because I did not follow through with his offer. He really sounds very convincing and as much as I need a lot of help right now, I do not feel comfortable following through with this offer or shall I say, “SCAM/SCAMMMER”!!!!!!.

1. Research the companies that solicit your business. Use resources such as the ScamPulse.com. If you can’t find any company information during your research, consider this a red flag and avoid doing business with them.

2. Avoid high-pressure situations or deadlines. If someone urges you to act quickly or advises you not to tell anyone else, you should be cautious about dealing with this person.

3. If a potential employer, unconfirmed business solicitor or potential buyer asks you to wire them money—don’t do it! It’s a scam.

4. Be suspicious of anyone who claims they can generate guaranteed profits quickly.

I was told that I was approved for a loan to be paid back in installments. After verifying all my identity information, I was told that I needed to send $250 to receive the loan thru Western Union. I told them I had no money and they said your loan is denied. When I asked them about all my private information, the guy responded with "[censored] your information". Now I am scared that my identity will be stolen and my credit will be ruined.
