Second call from this number in last few days. I did not answer as caller ID read TEXAS where company name should be. First call no message left. This call a recorded voice left message my loan was approved and gave me a loan number to call back with. anyone who would get a loan from an unwanted cold call deserves the problems they will receive.

I get calls from all over with loan approval, or free gov. grant,.... All these calls are maid by people with heavy foreign accents.
I called the real govt. phone no. and they say these are all scams. I kinda thought they were a hoax but I know for sure now.
They (the scam artists) are relentless.
These scammers left a message saying that a loan
had been approved (for someone not mentioned), and
that one only needed to call them in order to make
this supposed loan effective. The female voice
which left a message had a heavy foreign accent.
Since nobody at home had applied for any loans
I became very suspicious. When I called them back
they wanted all kind of personal information, (full
name SSN, credit cards, ...) which I naturally refused.
They were completely unable to locate "my loan" approval
or my name using the loan number and my telephone number
which they had just used only a few minutes earlier.
This proves that their "loan was fake, only
a trick to make me call them.
Therefore I say that this seems to be an scam to get
your personal information, or to make you apply for
a (small) loan from their company. In the latter case
I would be very concerned about their fees.
BE CAREFUL if they call you. They claimed to be
E Loan Auto Finance, in Dallas.
