This time I played the fish and let the think they hooked a big one...
So I told them yes I did apply for a e-loan. So they told me I was approved for $10,000.00.
But before I could receive the money I would need to go to Walmart customer service where the money gram
Red phone was located at. And at that point I was to call back and ask for mike Loveland (this guy was 100% east Indian and his name was mike ? ) Anyway after about 30 minutes I call back and ask for mike Loveland and after being on hold for about one second the Sam guy picks up the phone telling me he is mike and he was the loan officer and my $10,000.00 was all set and ready to be wired to my account but first I needed to show good faith by paying my first loan payment. In the amount of $325.00. So I told him , no problem how do I do it ?. So he told me to pick up the red money gram phone and tell the money gram representative I was going to be sending $325.00 to a Vernon's wells in lasvagas Nevada so I played like I was talking with the money gram rep.so I did the hole song & dance and told mike the [***] it was all done. He told me after he had received confirmation the money had been picked up he would call me back and get my bank account & routing numbers and at that time he would deposit the $10,000.. After about one hour he calls back and tells me Mrs.wells was unable to pick up the money. So I told him I would call and see what the hold up was. I called him back and told him it would be ready in about 15 minutes and hung up. This went on for several hours and wasted a lot of his time and the time of Vernon's wells in vegas who keep checking to see if her money had arrived yet...
For me it was a lot of fun. But I keep thinking about the poor person who did not know it was a scham and paid the $325.00 and then gave them all thier bank information. And by the end of the day had lost everything to a gang of camel jokey [***] from east India.
So for one day maybe I keep them busy enough to save one person from being robed.

I got a call from this company claiming that I received a loan I called them back and ask them what I need to obtain this loan they told me that I needed to give them my bank account number my user name and password to my account I laughed told them don't call me anymore and hung up
I could not resist, I know it is sophomoric but sometimes..... - these guys have been calling every other day with this scam - so I returned their call/called them and told them they were eligible for a 10k student loan....12k if the first class they registered was English. I was going to give them a reference number - which was F$#@ You.
And they also might have electronic lists of residential numbers that were given out on CDs several years ago by AT&T when it was trying to get out of distributing paper phone books.
This says report a number. Report to whom? Really, the phone companies don't care that their customers are using their phone lines to harass people. I don't know what I signed up for, but anytime you put your phone number out there for ANYTHING these morons seem to be able to snag it. I have received two calls this afternoon, One from Chicago area and one from Dallas/Ft Worth area. I don't answer calls I don't know. But both of these people left messages. Both have heavy accents. It drives me crazy what little privacy we have now. I just block the calls on my phone. Doesn't do any good to report. They just get new numbers the next day.
