They say they are Fast Cash calling to approve me online loan app. These guys won't stop calling my number. They ask for different people all the time. I have asked them to stop calling, and that the person they are looking for doesn't exist at this number. I have asked to remove my number. Instead, they just call back from another number. I have had to call Verizon Wireless to add blocking capabilities to my phone and all I can do is block each number as the calls come in. I report all their calls to the fcc.gov site and I report them to the donotcall.gov site. It is getting extremely frustrating.
Keep calling all through the day about a loan. Never seen someone/ a loan company wanting to give away $3000 so fast but first they say you have to buy a moneypak card. REALLY!!!
WHO IS THESE PEOPLE?
Anybody know?
My son in law is in the Marine Corps and along with my daughter, is stationed at Twentynine Palms Ca. They are young and newly married and struggling to make ends meet. I had suggested that they may want to think about consolidating any bills they have so they can pay one low monthly bill. I should have stressed that it should be through a trusted bank. He came across these swindlers online, under the false heading of fast cash and loans. Now you can find many of these around a base usually and they are mostly on the up and up because the military comes down on them hard if they rip off one of their men. When he called they said they were in L.A and after giving information (cringe) said that he was approved for 3000 dollars BUT in order to receive the money he had to purchase a moneypack for 50 dollars and send it to them. After he did this they said the money would be in the bank within the hour. After there wasn't any money he called them back and they informed him that because he doesn't have great credit he would have to purchase another moneypack for 55 dollars. At this point my daughter knew something was shady, but the "gentleman" on the phone knew how to talk. He purchased the moneypack with the promise they wouldn't be seeking anymore money. After waiting the alotted time and the money wasn't in the account, he called them once again. They told him they had run into problems on his application thst yhey had overlooked before and needed him to purchase another moneypack for 75 dollars. Now my daughter already knew what was going on but my son in law still thought they were telling the truth. Most of us would have balked the first time they asked for money but in his defense, he grew up in the system with no family and no one to teach him aboutthings like this. Yes, he sent the 75 and they told him it would be in his acvount in 15 mins. Needless to say yhat never happened! Come to find out they are out of Fla not L.A..I guess this is a lesson learned for him but im so infuriated and left with no options about getting their money back. I called and of course it was an answering machine of someone who could barley speak English!!
