I had wanted my first reviews to be something witty and fun. BUT then, someone tried to scam me. So, I decided this one needs to be out there.
A few weeks ago, money was a little tight and we considered taking a payday loan to get us through. So, I went online and found a company that looked good, filled out the application to see what they could offer. I decided against taking the loan... BUT there wasn't really a way to tell them that. People were calling me non-stop for a week. My email was flooded with more spam than I have ever seen. That's bad, but it got much worse!
Just when the emails and phone calls weaned off, I get a phone call from someone posing as a worker with the US Dept of Justice. She claimed that a warrant had just been issued because I failed to pay back the payday loan I took. She said that if I didn't pay it TODAY, they would be proceeding with the warrant. I asked how this was tied to my name. Then she spouted off my social security number, address and employer.
I have contacted them, but they have yet to respond.
