Description

Applies for on line loan. Approval, they stated that I needed to have additional insurance due to a low credit score. They would send me money and that I would send it back to the company. It was returned by way of a Walmart gift card and cash to a bar code through Walmart. they said that my part was completed and I would receive the cash. No, received another check in a even larger amount, and wanted to go through the same process and send money in the mail, in box wrapped in aluminum fol to a number that I would receive later. At this point I called numbers on the check to see how legit it was, and unfortunately it was not. I went to the bank and let them know what was going on. they closed all my accounts and I am responsible for the grand mess. thank goodness not the large check, but all said and dome, an expensive lesson to learn. Reported to the local authorities and FTC and now BBB. It is just unreal to exercise good faith and how many scams there are and they make them appear to be so real, they really know how to catch you in a weak moment,.
