Type of a scam Debt Collections

Claimed to be calling to collect on a (non-existent) 3-year old medical debt. Targeted my wife personally and called on her phone and had her address. Was very persistent and threatened to destroy credit if she did not provide a prepaid card or bank checking information immediately. Did not provide any account # or reference #. Initially would not provide a name of the supposed medical company, but eventually came up with a fake generic name. Nobody answers at call back number provided.

Type of a scam Credit Repair/Debt Relief

They call daily. Not saying a name of who they are looking for . First it’s a recording that says I contacted them to help with my credit. Then it says to press 1 for a rep or 2 that I’m not interested. The first few times I pressed 2 . That obviously didn’t work. Now I press 1, and ask the same man with a foreign accent to give me his address and supervisors name , he hangs up d every time

Type of a scam Advance Fee Loan

Received phone call from a woman named Vanessa who advised that I was approved for a loan if $5000 at 8% interest for 2 year / 24 month term with payments of $225 a month and this was being offered to me by a non traditional lender due to my poor credit score. I was offered 3 (three) options to move forward with the loan: 1) get a co-signer with a credit score of 700 or higher who made at least 50k a year. 2) Make a collateral payment of $450 up front, which would be applied to the principle of the loan and I wouldn't have to make loan payments untill March 2018. 3) Purchase insurance of $1000 in the event if my death or accidental dismemberment that would cover my loan and payments up to one year.

.

When I confronted this Vanessa woman about how it's odd that a Financial company would require any up front payments from someone in need of a loan and/or request for someone in need of financial assistance to purchase $1000 in insurance when again, I was in need of financial help, she got quite curt and said something aling the lines of; since I have such poor credit and credit scores, I would need to prove to the lender I'm worth lending too. When I continued to question these options she said she could go ahead and remove me from the opportunity of this loan offer and started to hang up.

.

I maybe in a financial crisis but I am aware enough to know that any legit financial institution wouldn't request money's or sell unnecessary / fake products to someone who is in need of a loan. Better just to refuse my application than try to get money from someone in need.

.

Thankfully I did not move forward with this "loan" and instead came right to BBB.org to research this Milestone Financial Services - where I cane across a scam alert reported. Sadly the other person moved foward and sent money. Please be careful when trying to borrow money, a legitimate lender will never use western union/money gram etc and shouldn't require upfront payments or purchases to obtain the loan.

Total money lost $1,147
Type of a scam Advance Fee Loan

I was searching for an online personal loan for emergency purposes. I was contacted by Amanda White, stating that she was from Milestone Financial Services. She stated I was approved for a loan for $5,000. Considering my credit, I needed collateral... Where I was given 3 options... One was a co-signer that makes at least $50,000 per year with a credit score of 700 or more, second was 3 monthly payments up front (what I chose-totalling 675.00), and the 3rd option was something to do with $1500.00. I chose the second, was told that the upfront money was going to my 1st 3 payments. Once I paid via western union, I received a call saying that the lender placed my file on hold due to reassessment of my credit... Where they requested me to pay a second collateral payment of 675...which I did not have. We ultimately compromised on 400, where I sent it... It was picked up... And guess what no loan... And now no one is picking up the phone. I've literally just lost EVERYTHING!
