    All of a sudden I started getting threatening emails from someone stating that if I do not pay an unverified debt that charges would be filed on my name and social security number. I replied back to the individual who emailed me and a demanded that they no longer contact me and that I was submitting a complaint to the CFPB and my Attorney General. They then replied back to me with the name, partial social security number, mailing address, phone number and amount owed of the person they believed to be me. I then sent the email to my Attorney General with my complaint.

    This individual called my mother-in-law telling her that I have a warrant for my arrest and if the debt is paid they will reconsider the warrant. They tried scamming her into paying this fake debt. I do believe it’s against the law for Cash Advance USA to reveal any identifying information to any individual they cannot verify as the person whom owes the debt. They sent me someone’s complete contact information with partial social security number, not even knowing I was the person they presumed me to be. This company has violated the rights of this person and has broken the law and they need to be held accountable. This is not acceptable behavior nor will it be tolerated any further, the threats to me and my family will stop.

    This place is a scam. Went to go and get a loan and I asked for the supervisor and it was the same guy. Don't ever fall for foreigners at all. What a joke. I am calling the police down in GA and TX and contacting the Attorney General. They tried taking money out of an account that is my mother's and said it was an error but when I confronted them they called me names and I didn't know what was going on. So I closed all the accounts. Joke is on them.

    There are people of Middle East accent posing as Cash Advance USA PayDay Loan stating you've been approved for $5000 to $8000 loan! They recite all of your info you input online for the loan, ask for the amount you want to borrow and then let you know what your payment will be for 24 or 36 most! Then tell you that there's a fee for sending the loan to you which is between $75.00 and $95.00 and you have to purchase a home sort of card and call them with a no. By then I felt it wasn't right so I didn't allow it to get that far, I've even forgotten what type of card they wanted me to purchase! They use multiple phone numbers which are probably spoofed, because they don't register to a name or business! This is the email address they use. Cash.Advance.America7usa.com... PLEASE BEWARE. THIS IS A SCAM!!! I didn't lose any money fortunately!

    So I was desperate for money, applied to a bunch of places and they was one of the few that sent a text saying I was approved, along with a phone call. Heavy Indian accent. They said I had to do a verification process in order to receive my funds. The process was that, they deposited say 600 bucks in my account one evening. The next day I sent it (morning time). Long story short the check bounced and now I'm in the hole a little over 600 bucks. I called them back with no hopes of getting my money back, 'cause I realized I was a sucker who was scammed and probably not a whole lot to do about it. They tried to tell me they'd make it right by doing the process again, and saying once I did it, I'd have 6000 bucks deposited in my account. ** scammers. Don't be a fool like I was. Sometimes waiting and thinking about better options is better than being vulnerable and accepting w.e. comes.

    I was told I was approved for a $6000 loan. I had to go buy $147 in iTunes gift cards. I had to give them the number of the back of the cards. Which they redeemed after I gave the cards. Then they wanted me to send them $387 to finish my part saying that this will prove that I could pay the loan back, this was my verification process.

    I was offer a loan in a text message and since my credit is bad. I call the number, I notice the heavy accent. But I continue talking. They knew so much about me (phone number, social security, bank routing and checking account). I continue talking. I wanted $2000 he said "No you can have $9000." I decline but he said my funds would be deposited a few hours later after they confirm my account. I immediately took the money out of my account. He calls me 1 hour later and demands my online banking user name!!! I told him I don't have one. So he demands my bank card number!!! I said "No way I would not give you that ever."

    Got a call today, 312-248-2234, and answered to hear that I was preapproved for a thousand dollars loan, and just call them back at same phone number. I called back, they answered Cash Advance. I asked "Do you have a web site?" I like to see how professional or cheesy a site is, as a place to start, in looking at a company. If their site is not professional, then neither are they! I even look for typos. Well, the guy just hung up on me. So I started researching (yes, I can use a grand or two this month), and found all of these reviews.

    Thanks to all of you for sharing. They are, as I suspected, scammers. I feel bad for people who gave them money, or got bankrupted by them. I have an account on the Do Not Call Registry on the FTC web site, and I will be filing a complaint against this very dangerous company today. Yes, the caller had what sounds like Indian/Pakistani kind of accent. And folks, just know, they can call from anywhere in the world and make it look like they are inside the USA with bogus numbers. It's why they are so cocky and seem fearless. Our money could be supporting more than just criminal phone calls.

    I had received automated calls from this company 3-4 days in a row. I wanted to consolidate my credit cards. I decided to call back but every time I called, I would get a recording that the person I was trying to reach was not able to receive calls and to try later. Right then and there I thought... hmmm, this has got to be a scam. The following week, I received another call, I too, spoke with a woman with a very thick accent not to mention there was so much noise in the background, it was even more harder to hear her. Nevertheless, we began the loan process, until we got to the point she requested my username & password for my checking account. Do I really look like boo boo the clown. What legitimate company will ask for that info. When I asked her why she needed that info, she replied, they need to access the account to make sure it's my account. I told her she is a liar, accessing my account does not prove that it's my account.

    I then told her to remove my number from their calling list. She said they would but lo and behold, I received another automated call again today. It's ashamed how companies like this one is out here scamming & preying on folks like this. People are trying to get loans to consolidate or whatever. Why in the world does these companies think folks have money to send them for a loan. REALLY!!! Anyone that reads this review, I STRONGLY SUGGEST THAT YOU DO NOT OBTAIN A LOAN FROM THIS COMPANY!!!

    So I have been constantly getting these silly emails from Cash Advance USA, I have no idea whom they are. Never took out a loan from any of these institutions. But I like messing with them when I do get them. Easiest way to figure out it is a scam, promptly ask them, "How can I send you the money so I can clear my name today?" They will come back with a stupid email saying if you pay '**' amount they will call it paid in full. I then ask them again, "How can I send the money right now to take advantage of this great settlement amount?" Their response would be something like what I received from them again. Stupid scam.

    I just had a wonderful time jerking these people off. They've been robocalling me a couple of times a day for some weeks, so I finally decided to call back and really piss them off. No legitimate company calls you to offer you a loan - you have to call them and actually apply. Anyway, these jerkoffs kept hanging up on me so I kept calling back - 15 times before they finally blocked my number. I then used another phone to call again and pretend like I really wanted a loan.

    I told the guy I wanted $20,000 and he asked how much I made before taxes each month, so I told him maybe $300. He then wanted to know how I thought I would get a loan with only making that much a month. I replied that since they had called me, they obviously already knew how much I made and yet still offered me a loan. He then said I could have $2000 and wanted to know my bank routing number. I gave him the number of an old account that has been closed for some time, and he really got pissed. He eventually hung up on me too. I only wish I could have recorded this for YouTube.

I told him I had not applied for a loan with his company, but he ** his way through and then said he was with Cash Net USA.

So, I checked my email and sure enough, there was a form for me to sign which stated the loan terms and repayment. When I called him back, he asked me for my user ID and password at my bank. I told him no, I wasn't giving him that information. Michael said it was the only way they could make the transfer into my account. He even told me if I was leery, to take all of the money out while they made the transfer then I could put it back in with a new user id. Who does he think I am, boo-boo the fool?

    Upon speaking to them they asked a series of questions and asked for the phone numbers and any other information I had about the company. I stated it to them they were calling me off of different numbers all over the United States and what they had told me about how they would not stop calling me in to go to the police.

    I received a call from someone with a thick East Indian accent who stated they were with Cash Advance America and that I have been approved for a loan between 2 - $10000. The reason they are able to offer this without any documentation is because the government is allowing them to finance people like myself that have a low credit score probably due to something that could not help. So the first guys verifies all my information. He knew my bank and my routing number and my account number. So I said, "Sure I need money, how about $5000." No problem but he would have to transfer me to his supervisor who would finalize everything. I told him there better NOT be any request for money up front. "Oh, No No ma'am you do not have to risk anything" as I am already approved.

    Another East Indian comes on and states all I have to do is wire $250 from my account so that the investors would know that I am a good investment and 5 minutes later the money would be in my account. Well I may be green but I am bright green!! No way I told him would I ever fall for such a scam. It is a terrible crime what these people are doing to the gullible.

    Like many others, it appears, I have been the victim of these evil people. Thankfully something didn't seem quite right while I was talking to the "manager" on the phone. The day before I had applied online for an emergency loan. I knew I would be paying it off in just a few days so I wasn't too worried about the high interest rates, etc. I received a call from Robin while I was out running an errand in my car. After a lot of time with him on the phone I was told I could have up to $10,000. Wow! I said "Cool, I'd like $2,000 please." Robin says "wouldn't you rather have the full $10,000 we are offering?" I thought it over for a whole second and said "well, ok."

    Then I get transferred to the "manager". I notice that he has the same thick east India accent as Robin who will finalize everything. Note that I'm also distracted by a personal matter that has my brain spinning so I'm thinking I just want to hurry this along and get back to the texts that are coming in rapid fire on my phone. Sitting the parking lot at a bank for an hour was probably looking at bit suspicious as well. Some guy even stopped by, tapped on my car window, and asked if he could pray for me, saying he thinks about me often. I try to explain that I don't know him and I'm on the phone. He looks hurt and walks away.

    Back to the "manager". He explains that he is going to wire the check into my account but needs to put a smaller one in first so the bank can see that I am receiving funds from this company. Kind of like a test. Hmmm, ok. Then he says after I get the $10,000 check wired in I need to pay them back for the first smaller amount. Suddenly this all seems very strange and I ask why I need to pay the smaller one back. Why don't they just send me the difference instead of the full $10,000? "No, can't do that. And be sure to pay the smaller one back immediately" he says. I ask why. He says "cause I wouldn't want to steal money from the US Treasury." I laugh, of course, and tell him I have to get going. He asks why I'm laughing. Now I really just need to find a restroom and pee. I'm laughing so hard.

    Well, I check my bank account when I get home and sure enough, there's $750 wired into my account. Hmmm, maybe I shouldn't have laughed. But wait! A loan without any agreements to sign? Naw. Well, at 7:00 in the morning I get a call from Robin who asks me if I can hurry to CVS or Walgreens and wire him the $750 so they can pay me the $10,000. I laugh and say "What? Send you $750 of my money before the $750 clears my bank?" I told him I was very tired but not stupid. Not sending him a dime.

    He then gets really upset. I get a call back from the "manager" five minutes later and he just starts yelling and says I'd better send the money or he will report me for stealing. I ask him where he works and he says "Cash Advance America". He says he's gonna "blow up my account" if I don't send the cash. Hmmm. I'm awake now. I hang up on him and research it. Land here on this site. I had to call my bank and report it. They are aware of them already. The east India accents and everything. Of course I feel stupid for being so desperate in the first place. And now my account is flagged for fraudulent activity. There will be a police report. I hope Robin is reading this. Run and hide :)

    I went online to get a payday loan, a fake account using the name of Cash Advance USA payday loan, this fake online company deposit a fake social security check of $990.35 then asked me to buy $800.00 of iTunes gift card and tell them their number on the card then again they put a fake check into my online account of$1,759.45 which my bank called to tell me about both checks being fake. Oh yeah and I had to buy 1,700.00 in iTunes and give them their numbers so my bank is closed today and I have to start paying back the money starting October 1st.

    This isn't fair cause I didn't know that this was a fake company and believe they were going to deposit 5,000 into my account. Now I haven't any money to pay my bills and rent this month because of this fake online payday loan. The name of this man who con me is Steven **, and the phone number is 409-356-5088, 409-246-0332, 989-715-1113 so beware of these people are they and India, am so stressed out with what happened to me and am broke because they took all my money and I can't get it back...

    My friend called me and she told me she applied for a loan, and she was uncomfortable with the information requested from her, and she asked for my help. I called on her behalf and I spoke with a guy named Peter ** with a heavy Indian accent. I started to question him about the initial of the loan and what's required from her to get the loan, and he told me that she needed to go to Walgreen, purchase an iTunes card, and pay 248 dollars.

    After briefly speaking with him I informed him that I was aware that this is a scam, and he needed to stop calling her and forget whatever information that she gave him or personal information that she provided him with. This person, which I'm sure that's not his real name, started getting aggressive and cursing very unprofessional, and that's another giveaway that that was a scam because anybody in the financial business who is a professional would not speak in this manner. So we went to the bank, close that account, and made the bank aware of the scam, and it also fit filing a criminal charges. This person should be in jail and deported back to India.

    I believed them 'cause I had been speaking with money bee for a few days which may also be a fraud/scam and they told me an adviser would be calling me to finalize what I was approved for. Well the guy that called knew all my info I had given money bee.com and the amount I was approved for. They deposited a test deposit to be sure my bank would accept then had the rest of my loan on hold. I could see it on hold in my account after I paid bills bought things my 2 year old needed that. I hadn't had the extra money for they withdrew all money and my account is now way overdrawn.

    I reported to state police ftc and others. I hope these scammers are caught and punished for putting poor people like me through this. I only went through moneybee.com because I have bad credit were I had been. Off work for over 2 months for health issues and my credit score dropped dramatically. Never ever accept a call from Cash Advance USA or names of Mark ** Kevin ** Charles ** or William **. SCAM SCAM SCAM. Now I am more in debt than I was and I have a child to raise and there's no help for me. So thank you scammers. You ruined my life financially!

    Received an email stating that this would be the final notice (first contact I'd ever received from or even heard of this company) before they went to court over a cash advance loan (which I have never done with ANY company) of 300 dollars which was supposedly overdue and with interest, now close to 900 owed. They refuse to provide documentation of "me" taking out this fictitious loan. I informed them that if they pursue the matter I will be countersuing for damages to my credit rating as well as court costs. I am hoping they do not pursue the matter, but I refuse to be scammed and just settle, as they suggest. Need to fight these scam artists who think they can scare you into a settlement just to avoid the hassle of defending a fictitious claim.

    My husband and I have been in a financial crisis. Desperate times, call for desperate measures. In a desperate attempt to get us out of this black hole of financial stress, my husband was surfing the net looking for loans for bad credit. He came across an application, filled it out, and got a call from a guy with a thick Indian accent, saying that he was approved up to $20,000. He said, "We only need $2,000." These people claimed to be Cash Advance. They told him they would deposit $899.11 into our account of which we needed to withdrawal and send back to them via Western Union to ensure that our bank account was active. They deposited the money, he did as they said, and then they said the loan would be deposited the next morning. The next morning, the money obviously was not there. They called my husband and said that his credit was too low and he would have to pay $325 to ensure we would be able pay the monthly payments.

    At that point, we realized it was a possible scam. We went to the bank, opened a new checking account since they had our banking information and moved all of our money to that account, just in case. We didn't close the old account since we have to switch all of our bills and direct deposit. Today, I checked our account and noticed these scammers charged our account $899.11, putting our account negative $900! We called the bank, told them what happened and they didn't believe us and said they were going to file criminal charges against my husband for fraud!

    Luckily, those people called back while my husband was on the phone with the bank, my husband put the call on conference call and answered their call. They were laughing at him and calling him names!! Thankfully, since it was on conference call, the people at the bank heard the whole thing! So that account is currently frozen, there will be no criminal charges against us, but we still have to pay all of that money back to the bank! Please DO NOT fall for this scam! We are already in a bad situation, and now it's even worse! The number of these scammers is 312-473-4818.

    So someone from a (312) 878-9025 called me and stated I was approved for a loan for 5,000-10,000. I asked him, "How did y'all approve me for a loan for that amount just out the blue." He stated I was selected. I notice he was in a call center with a lot of people with the same accent. I call it the SCAMMER ACCENT... It sounded good b/c I need a new car. However I'm not dumb. I didn't give him any info. I asked was this a legit company, he stated yes. However after reading some reviews I'm glad I didn't fall for it. I hope this helps someone else out...

    Like others I received a text saying I was approved for a loan. I called the number **. He had my information & all correct. He deposited $989.00 into my account. Anyway please don't fall for it. He got into my account taken me for everything I had as well as money I didn't have. My bank is helping me with this scam I fell prey to. The man has a very strong accent and is very persistent in getting you to do as he says. He makes himself sound trustworthy. They are out of Austin, Texas. He went by the name Eric **. I asked him about his name. He told me that his parents wanted a western name for him. Yeah, right. I will survive (barely), but what about others?

    Even if you are registered with the National Do Not Call Registry, they STILL call. Apparently the Government can't do anything to stop them.
