Review: I do not have contact information for this company - no address or phone number or contact person - just the email address - so I put in my own information in order to be able to complete my online complaint with you!!!I received an email today stating I owed $955.75, and if I paid in 48 hours it was fine, if not I owed $4203.85, and that my "SSN has been put on hold by the US Government" and I was a "defaulter on this credit united legal investigation bureau has stated 3 serious allegations against you and they are violation of federal banking regulation, collateral check fraud and theft by deception," I had to email Monday through Friday 9:30 am - 5 pm EST. When I replied what was this for, I received a response that I took out a loan for $300, "they do have a signed copy of the contract" which was signed under my email address and "SSN ending with 2052," and that they "also would like to mention your computer's IP address was also traced when you were signing the contract with the company. The company has more than 14 technical evidence in order to prove". They said that they work with a mother company who owns and operates more than 350 parental payday loan web sites. I replied I did not have record of this please provide documentation. They responded that they were "not authorized to provide the original document" and that it was "clearly mentioned on the agreement the company will not provide you any kind of document at the time of repayment of the loan," and that when paid in full they would provide me with a receipt. I did not reply, suspecting this was a scam. I am filing reports with FTC, Revdex.com, and ITC. Please advise if I need to also contact local law enforcement or put a notice on my SS # or my bank? Thank you.Desired Settlement: I'm concerned this is a fraud - but what scares me is that they had the last four # of my SSN - I sent an online complaint to the FTC and IC3 - just need to cover all bases. Please advise if I need to contact police, my bank, or government re my SS # also?

Review: I have a person by the name of [redacted] calling my place of work when I try to explain that he needs not to call he gets abusive and yells and uses foul langue. He is of Indian accent.

Review: They emailed me stating that I was approved for a cash loan of $5000. They said I had to pay a verification of $182. They said after I made that payment through a reload it card the funds would be immediately transferred into my checking acct. They said that they had trouble transferring into my acct so they were going to [redacted] the funds to me and I had to pay $300 to process the loan. They were unable to fund the loan via [redacted] so I provided another account in another bank of which they said I had to pay $189 for wire transfer fee. They said the process could not take place because my FICO score was less than 790. They said if I paid $790 it would improve my credit worthiness allowing them to transfer the $5000 loan. I said I couldn't pay anymore money and wanted all my money back and they indicated that if I paid $225 for cancellation fees and additional administration fees I might get my money back. They should be closed down due to their highly fraudulent practices against government sponsored programs that that totally misrepresent and take advantage of!Desired Settlement: I would like all my funds returned and them to clearly articulate the process in initial conversation so others are not taken advantage of. They should truthfully disclose that the reload it cards go directly to them and the significant risk of losing your money if your FICO is below 790. This is not a legitimate personal loans organization.
