Received a couple of calls from this number during the day. Called when I got home from work and said I had received calls from the number. The guy who answered asked me if I needed a loan and I said I did not, and asked to be removed from their call list. He was pleasant and said ok. Hopefully they actually will.

Pay day loan. They kept calling 10-20 times a day. I finally answered and after a long pause a man with a heavy accent stated I was approved for a payday loan. I told him I'm not interested and to stop calling I'm on the do not call list. He apologized and quickly hung up. No idea where they got my info
I need a loan sent them my money and it was a scam going through a lot already and for people to take other for grant I feel so hurt but I believe I will receive my money back one way or another I learned a lesson.
Advance fee loans are illegal period and in some states, so are the payday loans. Please be aware the scammers may also claim down the road that you have taken a loan and try to extort money from you that way as well!

Things to remember about loans offered by phone or e-mail: (Pay attention to item #4!)
Loans
1. No reputable lender will lend you money over the phone.
2. No reputable lender will lend you money by e-mail
3. On-line lenders are nothing more than conduits for another loan scam.
4. Advance fees for loans are always illegal. At least in most American states.
5. If you want to borrow money, go to an established brick and mortar lender that has been around awhile.
6. If you receive a call from someone with an Indian accent either a. threatening you or b. offering you something, you know it’s a scam and you should hang up immediately.
7. These people are predators, the calls are not random, they have information that they have bought from various sources and know your financial history. If you have ever taken out a pay-day loan, they have all your information. They know who they are calling. They like to pick on women, single mothers, the elderly and sometimes members of the immigrant community. Also, those who might be in financial difficulty.
