I was looking to get a payday loan, guy with a heavy Indian accent calls me from 850-706-2311 and says his name is Tony Marshall, Then tells me my loan is approved $800 and is going over my personal info. I then get a bank authentication from Capital One which is not the new way to verify bank info. I then get a call from what I was told was a supervisor from 707-701-3660. I didn't get her name but I did get a text with Ross Davis for a signature. While still on the phone, says I'm approved for an unsecured loan of $8,000. This all sounds very official outside the loan amount til the moment $400 is instantly deposited from a mobile banking app in 3 separate deposits of $175 while I'm still on the phone and have not approved to have anything deposited just yet. They then want me to send that money to my cashapp then send the cash to $cislopayments and screenshot the pending and completed transaction. I hung up there and call my bank. Gained $400, open case, no loss to report other than personal information as of yet. I also got a call from what I thought was Wells Fargo based on the caller ID but it was a very angry guy with an Indian accent asking for someone other than myself and threatening to file a claim with my bank.

Had been looking for payday loans and actually came across this one on Facebook. The website layout seems legit. I made an account, didn’t give banking info though but a PayPal link. Looked up the address on the website and it comes back to a family residence. Started noticing blatant grammatical errors on the website. I got a text from my banks fraud alert center notifying me of a charge of 58 cents by workpoints.

Was sent a text that I owe money from a 2015 payday loan from EZ Corp, they had all my information but I never took out a loan. They said I was going to court if I didn't pay 1800 at the time I called the number. I told them I was not paying and they hung up. The text message I received said "This message contains sensitive information. Your balance in our office is overdue and you may be subject to additional fees. Please contact your representative immediately at (210)-441-7894. This number is for outgoing text only." The initial text message came from 210-804-2626

I was in search of a personal loan. I'm homeless. I was contacted from searches by email. Jack Taylor emailed from Ace Cash Express and claimed I was approved for loan for $6,000. Upon filling out information asked for in email. Jack called me and said he I was approved he was sending me a verification check and when it goes thru he will deposit the rest of the money. He deposited a check in my account that was about $1500 but it never deposited. He said it will clear in few days. I wake up next day and my entire acct has been closed due to fraud activity on acct.

I'm not sure but I paid the loan years ago. Yesterday I got an email that I was overdue for $110.00., and the total due was over $5000.00. I paid $1800 years ago and now the website is out of service. If this a true student debt, why was this not on the bill years ago? Please get back to me. Since Covid the entire student loan process is ridiculous, and I paid ALL my loans.

I was referred to Douglas Agency (@douglas_kise) on Instagram by TikTok account @jdfundinggroup after i commented on one of its video as directed by the video. Few days later, @jdfundinggroup sent me a message to contact former on Instagram to assist me with funding for my business. After contacting Douglas Agency on Instagram, he/it acknowledged knowing @jdfundinggroup (or that's what it seemed). Douglas Agency asked me if i was resident in U.S. or not; and I told him I was not resident in U.S. He asked me for my business EIN to confirm if my business is genuine and background check to see how much i could access (i thought it was private funding). Next, Douglas Agency said my EIN if good and i can access minimum $50,000 and maximum $180,000, but he can process and get grant approval within 48hours and disbursement in 4days for a fee of $160. But I was left with only $50 in my account , and pleaded with him to pay the $50 then balance as soon as i get disbursement and he agreed. I asked him (Douglas Agency) if he had a stripe or Payoneer or bank transfer but he said no and insisted CASH APP or Zelle. After several attempts to download those apps i got error messages that those apps were not available in my country. He kept giving me Nigerian vendors that can assist with paying him in bitcoin. After over 12hrs of back and forth he recommended local transfer to a Nigerian Bank account number. As soon as he got it, he requested my email and full name. Next he said he will send an email to complete the online grant application form (which is a U.S government grant site) contrary to him process and getting approval within 48 hours - claiming the server is slow. Next he said i should pay him $60 more if i want him to process it himself. When I insisted i am not interested any longer and I needed my refund, Douglas Agency (@douglas_kise) said it would take 7 (seven) working days for a refund (claiming company policy), and i should complete the total amount due as fee, if not stopping the transaction will affect my credit scores/report.

Keiser university set me up with a private loan. The paperwork states a fixed payment amount and a fixed interest amount. My payments double every couple months at random. My due dates change randomly. This company denies that they have anything to do with setting my loan they say they are a serviced and Keiser sets the loans. Keiser denies this. This is hurting my credit report and the “interest” is nearly %60 and stands to go from $80 per month as originally agreed to $700 per month within 6 months of taking the loan out. Some students have gone halfway through their programs at keiser university and had to drop out or have been kicked out due to not being able to afford these payments and being stuck with the full amount of debt afterward.
