Got call from 312 473-7624 asked if ELLEN was there, I said no then a raspy voice kept saying do you need a loan. I said no repeatedly. The voice sounded like the same one pulling the IRS scam. Indian voice. I just hung up.
Something has to be done about these unwanted calls.
These calls are from CASH ADVANCE USA. This part of the warning
about them issued by the Washington Attorney General:
____________________________________________________________________
Consumers report that entities called CASH ADVANCE USA and
CASH ADVANCE may be operating advanced fee loan scams.
The consumers report that these entities contacted them
by telephone and offered them loans if they first made payments
using prepaid cards. After the consumers paid the advance fees,
the callers and their associates demanded more payments
via prepaid cards. Ultimately, one consumer lost $794.85,
one lost $390, and another lost $250. None of these consumers
received a loan.
