Total money lost $400
Type of a scam Advance Fee Loan

This company is operating illegally under the name of a legitimate loan company. They contacted me initial via email, saying I was approved for 8000$. They then called me to verify information, said I was approved and the funds would be transferred into my account. Then I was told in order to get the funding due to my low credit score, I needed to show I had at least 400$ to cover the first bill. They asked me to go an purchase a iTunes card and send the confirmation of payment and card information. They then said the funds were being wired. The person stayed on the phone with me then came back saying there was an issue with the transfer. They said my funds were being held by the federal government and I would have to wait for them to release the fund. They also said they could get me the funds if I signed up for insurance for 600$ I then ask them for the money back from the iTunes card they said it would be mailed to me.

Total money lost $1,906
Type of a scam Advance Fee Loan

I am laid off and in the process of filing for disability. I was shopping for loans and applied every where. I received phone calls and then an email from America Cash Advance USA saying I could get a peer to peer loan of $15,000 at 10% interest. I would have monthly payments of $300.00 for a 55 month term.

“Sebastian Taylor” went on saying that all I had to do was put $415 on an iTunes gift card or send it Moneygram to “Scott Bell”. This money “Sebastian” said was for “FDIC insurance and was refundable”.

I spend almost hours on the phone throughout this whole process. Even speaking with “Sebastian’s ‘supervisor Edward’”. I was then told that I gave the wrong routing number with my checking number. They went onto tell me they will make a deposit $1,176 into my account via US government & for me to send it back to them for the loan to go through. No problem, right? Except the check from the US governement is a fake per Wells Fargo (my bank).

I call back and they tell me to wait until Friday and it will be resolved. Friday has come and gone. I am out: $426.50 (Moneygram - Loan “insurance”; $1,176 for the fake US Treasury check & OVER $300 in fees I incurred because of the aforementioned.

At this point I'm livid. I feel like a [censored] and now my debt is even bigger. I just want my $1,906 back ASAP and for these people to be SHUT DOWN so they can't hurt anyone else.

Total money lost $25
Type of a scam Advance Fee Loan

I had applied for a loan on the internet and then I was sent a message saying someone would contact me to discuss my options. they did contact me and offered me a $2000.00 loan and said that I needed to go get this card ( a iTunes gift card for $25) they said it was to show that I was trustworthy. And I asked about it being a scam and they said NO they were legit and that I would be able to use the card for purchases. So I got the card with the last of my money and then they asked to verify the info from the card and then they put me on hold and then came back and said that my loan was being placed on hold and that I needed to add $75 by getting another card for that amount, and then my loan would go through within 10 minutes into my account. when I told them I had no more money they said I need to get the other $75 and call them back. I did call them back but not with any more money but I told them I realized they were a scam and I was going to call the BBB, then they said thank you for calling and hung up. I have since closed my checking account so they cannot get excess to it. But now I am out of my $25.

Type of a scam Advance Fee Loan

I received an email from Advance America for a loan up to $5000. I immediately received a call for the loan. The man, David Allen who clearly was a foreigner with a ery strong accent had an American name! He obviously had access to my personal information as he knew my address, telephone number, where I worked, my bank including the the routing & account number! However, he asked me for my pass code & pin number When I called back the telephone number on the email, he answered by simply saying "hello" & not identifying himself as a business & now I'm afraid he will have access to my personal information, what should I do??

Type of a scam Advance Fee Loan

I contacted them about a loan and they gave me this line about sending money to my account and then I was to take the money out and go get a cash advance card or I tune card and put that money on it and send it back to them and then they would wire the money into my account. I looked them up on the BBB site and told them to cancel it, I was told that they had already sent the money and that I need to send it back to them in the morning or they would sue me for fraud and close my bank account. I called my bank and was told that there were 2 pending transactions for 500$ each. I was told that this was done via a mobile phone at an ATM. My account information has been changed. They threatened me with jail,fraud and closure of my bank account. BEWARE!!!!!!!!

Type of a scam Phishing

Someone called me named called me claiming to be loan or cash advance company. They tried to sound legitimate by putting a man named John Turner on the phone from their accounting department. Somehow they got my name and phone number. They said they had to make a deposit into my bank account in order to lend the money and that I would have to purchase a debit card to send the money back to them. This sounded very suspicious so I asked them to email their information and I would get back to them. I went online and google searched Advance America. Turns out there is a real Pay Day lender named Advance America but they do not call customers over the telephone or contact them by mail. I sent them a message to let them know what happened. By the time I had done all this they'd already accessed my account and made a deposit. My bank froze and then closed my account before I could alert them about the scammers. All of my bills went unpaid and I have no access to my money as a result of what they did. Somehow they managed to make a mobile deposit of a check with my signature.

Type of a scam Advance Fee Loan

I entered an online contest and received a phone call that I was approved for a loan up to $15,000. I only asked for $2,000. The man I spoke to said I had to pay $199 for a revocation voucher. I said I would have the money the first of the month. I received a call July 1st and was told I had been approved and needed to pay for the voucher. He asked me to purchased an iTunes card and load the money, which I did at a Dollar General store in Owensville, MO. He was on the phone while I made the purchase and asked for the card account number to process my loan. Twenty minutes later he called back saying they received the voucher but could not process the loan. I needed to pay an additional $245 for insurance. Then, I realized this was a scam and told him I wanted my money back. The phone call ended.

Type of a scam Phishing

I applied for an on-line loan and was receiving numerous calls from a LA # (which has since been disconnected), a number out of Tx (940.294.7158) and now a number out of Plant City offering 5 times the amount I requested (by a representative named "Joseph" to cover medical statements for a surgery. This company has requested my bank acct info, user ID, passwords, CC numbers and that I even open a new account into which they will deposit funds to make sure the account is valid, then you have to w/draw the money and wire back to them before you can get your "approved amount". $ days later, I have had 1 bank account closed due to fraudulent activity (which has been reopened with new info), and a 2nd acct opened per this companies request. Still to this day they are requesting me to send funds in order for me to receive mine. Be very aware of these frauds. The Company they go by is Advance America, which is not an online loan company, per say, its more of a pay day loan. Regardless, the amount requested exceeds the maximum available in the sate of Florida. Contrary to the amount I was offered. They tend to change #'s via burner phones and pretend to be account execs, and they have an underwriting team, and multiple managers, who seem to work out of a closet. Please be aware of these scams as they will have access to your personal info, acct info and and anything else they can get thier hands on.

It was my wrong doing putting trust in what I thought was a valid company, when all the, wanted was access to my account., which once they got it, were requesting refunds for bills paid over a months ago, and unbeknowest to me, the to companies abliged , causing my water and cell phone to nearly be shut off. Please be careful people. There are some scammers out there looking to rip people off and and couldn't care less. Cash 76 and AmericanAdvance need to be shut down

Type of a scam Advance Fee Loan

I received a call from someone named Flynn who said she got my name from the internet and that I was approved for a loan of $4000. I had been looking for a loan on the internet, I believed her. She said that I needed to purchase insurance because my credit score was below 700. She wanted me to call her with ITunes gift cards for $400. I read the #'s off the back. The next day, they needed $750 because there was a delinquent charge on my record which is not on my credit report. I went and purchased the ITunes gift cards and once again gave her the numbers from the backs of the cards. They told me that my bank refused the transfer and now I needed to go through Money Gram but I needed to buy $400 worth of gift cards to activate the transaction which I did. The next day, she told me my loan was disqualified and I'd have to pay again. I have been stalling her in hopes that someone can find her. She now is settling for 1/2 of the $1550.00. Surprise, surprise. She has been emailing me and calling me. I have saved everything. I did file complaints with the FBI and FTC.

I was contacted by an Alex Brown, an employee of Advance America for a loan. I was to put money on a green dot visa, which I did. Needless to say I couldn't register the card, he had already registered MY card. I can't even call to check if my money is in there. The company has no answers for me, and had the nerve to tell me to add more money to it. The guys phone number is 347 983 0270
