- Philadelphia, PA, USA

Sent me a email saying I was approved for a loan and asked for 1000

- Towson, MD, USA

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.

- Lynnwood, WA, USA

a person called said they are loan manger from Advance America Cash advance, they received my application and want verify information to continue because the loan was approved. They verified and send me the loan contract and told me to send it back to start the process. They said, part of the process is that their company will transfer some money so they can see my bank account in good standing. i thought part of the process so they told me to send at walmart, it's faster process so i can get the loan faster.

Because it was weekend, I had to wait to monday and i didnt see the loan being direct deposit. They said they were working on it. The next day, they asked for 700 upfront, I told them I dont have it. I said they never mentioned cancelation fee in the contract. They said because the loan amount, their lender charge cancelation of 1500 i only have 440 left so i had to paid otherwise my bank is negative Till today, I still dont have the loan being direct deposit, I suspected and I went online to read and found out i were scammed by this

This was an email asking me to e-sign for a loan I did not request. This is the second email.

I attempted to get a loan to pay my bills. I no longer was interested in the loan. The website said, I could cancel the loan! I called to stop payment and was told they wouldn't stop the payment. That it was going to be in my bank account by 5pm. I asked to speak to someone else. The phone hung up after a few. I called back and the man told me that the money was sent out at 12am. I told him my bank has not noticed me of any pending payment. I no longer desired the loan and the website stated that I could cancel. After, a couple of times of placing me on hold and repeating the same thing. I asked to speak to someone higher up. The supervisor gets on the phone and tells me that they will take the payment back. I informed her I had not received any payment and she would just be taking money. She said that I should wait until I receive the payment and then reverse the payment. I received the payment and now they are still trying to charge me for the loan of $400 a total of 1543.21, a total of 13 payments of $118. Well, over any legitimate interest rate. The supervisor informed me that the company would not charge me anything and only charge me $400 nothing else. I went on the app and there is a payment recurring of $400 and 3 payments of $118 recurring payments due. This is not what I thought it would be and I need help! The website is very misleading and the customer service has no way of stopping any payment! They only insist that I take the loan and kept pushing to make the loan

Gave me a loan I didn’t ask for

I was contact by a person from Franklin Funding, and then I was offered a 13000 dollar loan. This was a debt relief loan but when I called them I could never get a hold of them, and they wouldn’t call me bac. In July they took out of my bank 240 dollars, and in August another 240 dollar. I was finally able to get a hold of them and spoke to someone named Eric and he promised to returned my money, but as of yet I haven seen it. No one has contacted me or denied it, and all of the stuff they sent me has been taken down.
