Description

I was contacted via text by a person going by "Justin" from Wave Finance stating they are offering me a loan up to $5000. Payment would be $100 a month for 60 months. They already had my bank acct number and SSN address etc. They asked to verify via a link. I didn't get any contract or papers to sign. So, I figured until I did that, I was not locked into anything. Well, I clicked the link and linked it to my bank account. They submitted claims on things I had already paid. Large payments and requested reversals then they called me stating they had deposited the funds. I figured it was a scam and told them I was not going through with any of it. By that time, they had already accessed my acct and reversed payments. I called my bank to explain it all and stop the reverse claims they placed. (I can find NO such company called Wave Finance...)
