USA CASH ADVANCE SCAM: Foreign accented man called to confirm a loan but needed me to obtain a new government law requiring a verification voucher! When I had money and was at CVS, 11/7, Walmart or other locations.....I was to call him and then he would tell me the person to whom I would make the voucher out to for a total of 260 dollars (down from 400). The loan would then be deposited into my account as soon as the voucher business was done. He informed that I had to process the voucher verification within the next 10 minutes and then my funds would then be in my account in 15 minutes (in thousands by the way). The voucher was to prove I could make monthly payments...REALLY? The amount of the loan was ridiculous- "too good to be true" type. So I said I could not do anything until tomorrow. Again he emphasized calling once I was in the store and would give me no information except that his name was James. (BTW: a young man answered the phone, James was giving the 888 number to another in the background and then took the phone to speak with me??!!)

Googled USA CASH ADVANCE right away and did a reverse call on number. SCAM SCAM SCAM. I can add numbers to the existing LONG LIST of numbers used by them to procure USA CASH ADVANCE victims. The number I can add to the list: 347-492-****(out of NY)and 888-601-****.

I am sssooooooo glad I felt uneasy with the speed and abruptness of the "business" dealings with this man and looked up all this before becoming a victim to this scam!

This is a terrible scam.......calls every hour on the hour. Just so glad I didn't fall for the "verification voucher that is required by the US government now??"

Isn't there some type of law against claiming that money/vouchers are required by our government in order to process a loan?

Watch out all :upset

OMG people, this obvious scam has been around for YEARS. I cant believe there are still poor people falling for it.

Please, do some research BEFORE falling for any offer for anything. Especially if someone wants ANY money or information.

Don't discuss it, just hang up and block them immediately. You will not get your money back, it's gone and no agency will find these disgusting people in some other country.

I just had someone named "Shawn" (middle eastern accent) call from Cash Advance America...using number 561-437-****. He told me I was approved for a personal loan for $2000 to $5000.

He then proceeded to "verify information" with me by giving me my birthday, last 4 of social security, etc. He stated he had to verify my bank account and put me on a "silent" 4 minute hold. When he came back he stated he verified my bank account but needed my password and login information for my bank so that they could link my account to the Federal Trade Commission...yeah right. I immediately stated that I do not give out passwords or login information over the phone.

He said, "may I ask why, this is $2000 you need to feed your daughter"....information I did not tell him. I stated I didn't know who he was and if he truly had my information he could get what he needed for the FTC. He got pissed and stated, "are you some stupid *** American?" I stated, "excuse me??" He then back pedaled and stated he didn't mean to insult, it's just I was insulting him. I told him I'd write and check and take a picture, he agreed and gave me this email to send it to: cashadvanceamerica355@***.com.

Needless to say I didn't send him the information and I called my bank to stop that company from doing anything to my account. Watch your backs people, these ignorant terrorists and hackers are on the prowl!

I received two calls today from 718 766 ****. They left a voicemail on the 2nd call that said I had been approved for a loan up to $15,000.

I called them back and asked if someone had applied under my social (I didn’t give the whole number) and they hung up on me. I called back 8 times and each time when I asked the same question they would hang up on me until the final call and they told me no one had applied under my number. I don’t believe they even checked. It was a woman and two different men that answered the phone with middle eastern accents.

I can’t file with the Federal Trade Commission because all they did was call but for those that have been scammed out of money I would highly suggest filing a complaint with them. You can also file a complaint with the Attorney General in your State.

It’s all online. I hope this helps.

I TOO had the same type of experience with cash advance america. It is a scam.

They say they are lending tree & they are not! They got me for $ 195.00 , promised to send it right back with the loan of $10,000.00. which is not what I applied for. Then they wanted another $200.00 because my credit score was low and that would bring my score up.

B.S.!!! B.S. I say. They will not give me back my $195.00 as promised stating because I didnt get the loan they cant return it..

Do not deal with these foreigners.

it is a total scam.312-248-**** is one of the #s they called me from. Justin & Edward are the names they used

Guest

The Federal Trade Commission and that so called "Do Not Call" *** should have stopped this *** years ago! He is too smart for those yoyo's.

Guest

I didn't realize a collection agency would email or call with threats. Rapid Collection Services LLC has emailed me threatening Bank Fraud, Theft by deception and violation of Federal Law of Deception.

Demanding payment and court action and payment arrangements. Is this legal?

Guest

I am trying to find out if this is connected to cashloanusa299@***.com --- Jack Smith in Chicago -- they say they have all my info and can send 5k in 45 mins if I give a state to state transfer of 75 -- this is the first text: "Hi, Congratulation This is to inform you that your application for online loan has been fully approved by our company and there is no any upfront charges to get this loan amount. So if you are still looking for a loan so call us back on our number which is 773-796-****. Thank you." ---- is this the same guy?
