I put in an online application. Then I read their BBB report. They continued to call me even though I told them each time to not call me again. I don't have those calls documented, but I do have my call history from yesterday. They called me at 2:36pm. They called me at 3:37pm & I told them never to call again; he said "No problem" & hung up. I called them at 2:39pm to tell them to never call me again; he said "Ok" & hung up. I called again at 2:59pm, told them don't call again; he said "Ok" again & I yelled "NoNoNo! Not ok. I want this done immediately; he aid he had already added me to the DNC list. I called one last time & asked for a supervisor & was told he was a supervisor but would not give me his name; he said he would add me to the DNC list. I left it at that, but they called me again twice at 6:27pm. I have added their number to my blocked calls. I just hate to think that they treat consumers like this & hope they don't locate my alternate phone number.
Read this:
"It is illegal for companies doing business by phone in the U.S. to promise you a loan or credit card and ask you to pay for it before they deliver."
http://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0078-advance-fee-loans
If you or a friend need a loan, you really should read this:
http://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0153-choosing-credit-counselor
In fact, the more you need the money, the more urgent it is to read that information!
Protect yourself!
Recognize that NO legitimate company is going to offer you a loan, without their doing some background / credit checks on you, and they WILL generally need a snailmailed, signed contract.
If you or a friend fell for the scam, please try to educate your other friends. The only way to stop these scams is to cut off their source of money!
AND ... if you sent the up front payment via Green Dot or other untraceable means, it is gone.

Keep getting calls from these fools! Speaking hinglish and wanting info...my debit card was stolen some weeks ago and although i closed account and made reports to appropriate people, i am now getting calls from nameless companies wanting to loan me money...
Received a call from the number 312-912-9575. They did leave a recorded message saying they were with CashNet USA. Foreign accent mechanical sounding. Loan Scam saying I was approved for $1000 - $10000. Funny thing, I have not filled out an application for a loan. SCAMMERS...do not answer their calls. I have blocked the number.
