Candace: It depends on how you paid the scammers. Credit card- maybe. Debit card- maybe. Wire transfer (Western Union, Money Gram, etc.)- NO If you paid by either #1, or 2, call your bank, using the number on the back of the card. If you paid by #3, it is cash. Untraceable cash, & it is gone. Wire transfers are for family, & friends only (real friends). NEVER to be used for a business transaction.
This number has called repeatedly but when you answer the phone, they then hang up after asking to speak to you. It is Cashnet; an online payday loan SCAM and pain in the backside. Funny, they call you, but when you call them back, you get an answering machine with a Indian sounding man who uses different American names. Can something be done about this?
I just got a call from these people asking me for Charity I said there was no Charity here told him my Name and he asked If I applied for a loan so I played along and told him yes for $300 (I actually collect on real Cashnet accounts and this is the typical size loan) he said they don't do loans under $1000, I said ok I'll take $1000 he told me to call his senior loan officer at a 551-333-8521 to finish loan process.
This is the typical India Payday Loan scam they are not from Cashnet, Cashnet is based in the USA and does not send accounts for collections to India or issue loans from call centers in india.
The senior loan officer called me and asked if I wanted a $5000 or $10000 loan told him I only want $1000.......(cashnet will not ever issue a loan over $1500 and that's only if you are a repeat customer) he wanted me to go to CVS and get a pre paid visa card and load $200 then call him back and give him the card number. I told him I would call him back in 10 min with the card number.
This is a Scam !! Do not fall for this, I am a real collector of Cashnet accounts and I am in Texas.
If anyone ever calls you about anything to do with a payday loan and they have an Indian accent they are a scam. That goes for every payday loan company in existence !!!

I actually took the step of reading to them the information provided up top to the Indian guy on the phone and he was speechless. He had no comeback and finally when his balls dropped from his throat, he assured me they just "verify" the funds are there and dont take them. I would suggest doing that to whoever is on the phone and listen to them stutter and squirm. They will also try and lie and say they dont know what youre talking about. I had someone call in on the other line from the same number. I asked if he knew the other guys name, and he says no he must be a scam lol! Love it.
