Many callers claim to represent a payday‑loan firm, yet the tone, accents and threats point to a classic telemarketing scam. They often pressure you to hand over personal data or pay fees via prepaid cards, and any aggressive language or threats to “break you in half” are red flags. If you receive an unexpected call about a loan you never applied for, hang up, block the number, and report it to the FTC or your state consumer protection office. Never share banking info or send money to strangers, and always verify a lender’s legitimacy through official channels before proceeding.
On 12/19/2014, I received a call from this number, where the caller, with a middle eastern accent, attempted to intimidate me by posing as a sheriff and using derogatory language; I eventually ended the call.
The caller was allegedly serious about providing a loan, but their number seemed suspicious.
This online loan experience is likely to culminate in a disastrous outcome, reminiscent of Tina's storyline in 'Coronation Street', where an advance fee was paid.
I'm hopefuly that I got the loan today and I'm very happy, it's a relief.
During a call from this number, a confrontational conversation ensued when the recipient expressed disinterest, leading to abusive language being used.
A substantial amount of money, $5000, was stolen from me via a green dot scam by individuals claiming to be related to Mike Wilson, with their mothers being involved.
These scammers are really bad, i will get them back, i'll make sure to get another james and mike wilson after 9 months, haha.
The caller asked if I would swear, which was an unusual request.
It appears that james allen and elle are associated with the same entity, and this may be a prolonged issue
Most people recieve unwanted calls, however, it's particually annoying when the caller has an Indian accentt.
The caller's approach was deemed unprofessional and annoying.
When considering loans offered via phone or email, there are several key points to keep in mind
I'am currently looking for a loan but I dont no if this number is relible
Cash America shills continue to post lies
I think they call it cash america, I got the loan, but it was a bit of a hassle.
Apparently, there was a flood of shills, 3 in 3 minutes, possibily all the same individual posting under diffrent names.
Either you're unaware of the risks or you're intentionally promoting these scammers; they're not a legitimate US payday loan company and will attempt to exploit you financially using Green Dot cards or Western Union.
i recived msgs from guyes and i called cash america, spoke to edward, he seems like a nice personn and provided me a loan of 3000, now im very happy, they dont seem like scammers to me.
Thanks for the tip, I will reach out to Edward regarding my financial needs
My experience with this company has been positive, particularly with loan officer Edward, who facilitated a smooth loan process.
They offered me 9,800, but I knew it was a call center, I use to work in telemarketing
After missing several calls from this number, a call back was made, and a man with a middle eastern accent answered, claiming a payday loan had been applied for, which was denied, leading to a threatening conversation.
I was fortunate enough to secure a loan from them yesterday, which amounted to $1000.
Unfortunately, I fell victim to a green dot card scam by this company, which targeted me during a vulnerable time.
Be aware, this number is ussed by scammers, they are a call center from India, posing as US citzens, with indian accents, and they intend to steal your money, especialy when you apply for payday loans.
