Hi xxxxx. Don't want to bother you. This is Nexfund to finish reviewing options for your $40,000 personal loan. Do you have time now for a quick call? If the $40,000 is no longer needed, let me know. I appreciate it.

The scammer pretend to be a loan lender and approve victims for alleged loans, via sending emails of applications and approval letters, and loan confirmation approval letters, and then state via text that in order for the loan to be wired, the $145.00 wire fee plus processing fee must be paid by the victim, yet will be refunded, and to load the payment to a Green Dot Bank card, like the Walmart Money Card, and email them the picture of the receipt and card image. Then, the scammer repeat the process by stating that a low credit score arose as an issue with their team, and so, an additional refundable $165.00 will be required, and to also pay it with a Green Dot Bank card. And then the scammer will state that a final refundable $250.00 fee for their other team who send the money also need to be paid via a Green Dot Bank card—and when refused, they stick to the allegation—yet when the scam is reported to Green Dot Bank, the banking institution immediately close the complaint with the guidance to follow up with local law enforcement and to treat card information as cash—which does nothing for acts of theft by deception.

A person named Kevin O'Brien, who claimed to represent Providence Monetary Group, contacted me stating I had been approved for a $5,000 loan with monthly payments of $218. They said if I couldn't find a cosigner, I could pay 3 upfront payments, totalling $655.00. However, they wanted the payment sent via MoneyGram to a person and to use the cash pickup option, and then they said the loan would be made available to me within a maximum of 3 hours. Upon researching the website, it says they have been in business since 1999, but there is no trace of them online except for their website, which also lists an address that is currently listed for sale. When I called a few days later asking about making the payment, this time they wanted me to send the payment via Ria money transfer because the original person was "unavailable." Thankfully my gut spared me a chunk of change I was not prepared to lose.

They told me i had to veirfy my account and that they needed to make sure i wasnt a scammer. They put money in my account and then i had to send it back to them. They told i would recieve my loan in about 2 hours all depends how long my bank takes to issue it. Once i went back to chat and contact with them it said the company no longer uses the chat anymore.

Applied for a loan

Received approval then was asked to pay deposit fee of 175.00 via Sephora gift card. I was told would receive loan funds in 30 min. WHICH I DID NOT. THEN I received another email saying I have to pay a 317.00 State of Texas fee. At that time I realized I was being scammed. Contacted scam company and they just kept insisting I pay the additional fee. I told them they were scammers and they hung up.

This group tried to take advantage of me trying to get a quick loan. A loan for $2000..They had me open my bank account and put $400 into my checking account. To cover if I didn’t make payments that $400 was there insurance coverage. They wanted me to use my Apple Card but it wouldn’t work so they had me get a Walmart pre-paid card. I got it and using the $400 had it loaded on the card. After this I called them giving the info on the card. They now wanted me to have the card scanned. Going back in Walmart Customer Service the service member told me that this was a scam all the while this company was on the phone with me so called guiding me through the process. He heard the Walmart service member telling the company that this was a scam. I hung up after this and changed all my banking info. They are still calling. In all that happened I am very grateful for the Walmart service member and what was said. I feel like a fool and learned a lesson from this experience

I (the Customer) got a call from Max Reed from Light stream offering loan amt of $5000 . Upon initiating and agreeing Max reed requested access to my bank including my username and password on this from https://achpartner.formstack.com/forms/newform1_copy. I asked why he needed it and told him that that will not be possible. I declined Max Reed got irate cussing and using obscene language leading me to believe it was a scam . No one ask for full access to a bank account to give a loan.
