    I have used "online loan companies" and the best one that has great customer service and will loan you up to $500 is Idealgelt. I have dealt with them for a long time now and have had no problems. I have also fallen for these "loan scams" and have learned a hard lesson, so I do research anymore before I do business with any online loan company.

    Called form 9012486245.   They said I didn't file my 1040ez.    They said an arrest warrant was issued.   The thing is a scam.   I called 911.   They came over an said these people are just trying shake people down for money.    The voices were not Indian.  Nor were the names.   I think they are from Trinidad or Guyana.      I work with people with the exact same accent.      It is troubling though.   They were very professional sounding.     Just remember,  the police said that if an arrest warrant is issued.    You do not get a phone call.   You get a letter and/or hand cuffs.

    Today October 2nd, 2013, I was called from this company and was told I was approved for a loan of $1,000 @ $62.00 per month for 18 months.  Well, I calculated it and that is only a little over 100.00 interest for 18 months.  This was a red flag to me so I investigated and found it is a rip off company who breed on the poor and those with bad credit, such as myself.  They are not legitimate and do not do business with these people.  Their phone number is an answering service and their email address is not legit.  BEWARE!!!!!!!

    This is a SCAM. Do not speak to these people. Don't do any financial business over the phone. Go to your bank for a legitimate loan.

    The same people with heavy accents called & called & called me saying I can receive this loan for $1500 I said no I don't want this loan they kept trying to push it on me so I was telling them NO give me your manager. He transferred me to another man who said we just need to verify some information so we make sure we don't call you. He then tried to push so called loan on me. Then he sent me to someone who tolled me great you can get loan all they need is $250 because of my credit. I said I never wanted loan. He then tolled me then why did they transfer you to me I said I didn't know. He then said ok & good bye in a weird way. Now they are calling me to work saying I have a warrant out for me, because I defaulted on loan. They wanted to read a affidavit to me over phone. I said no wouldn't let man finish reading & in America it not legal to call to a persons work I would sue them, he hung up.

    These people called my mom, & told her that she had been approved for a "$3,000 loan". So she paid like $700 with a  greendot card and they told her to wait like 15 minutes and to call back. Then she called back and they said the guy wasn't there and that they did not know who they were speaking to. My mom bawled her eyes out. Now my family is in real bad debt with bills, and there's nothing we can do. I would just like to say thank you to them dumb indian scammers. If I saw them in real life they wouldn't be living anymore.

    They called from this number: 1-760-284-0200 and the guy's name was "Alex" with a strong indian accent.

    Is there anything we can do to get our money back? :/ If there is... Please reply. I'm only 17 and I'm having to see my mom go  through this. It's the hardest thing in my life to see my mom cry because of some dumb pricks that think they can just take people's money and run. If any help or suggestions at all please post them, also please do not call me stupid or be mean. I was just giving a heads up. :/

    I got a call from the same man named Mark Jones and his worker named Linda and I purchased three green dot money
    paks totaling nearly 800 dollars. These people are no good and deserve to be punished stealing from people and their families.
    If  you see this number 404-382-0014 this is a scam.

    I received at least 2 calls/voicemails from "Eric Matthews" from "American Loan Corporation" & my paper work has been processed & I'm approved for a loan up to $15,000!! I haven't called back because I never even filled out paperwork for them. The number they told me to call back is 347-434-4565.

It was consistent to every post I read. Thick Indian accent, got very annoyed when I said I wanted to withdraw my application, wanna-be American name! Thank god for the internet and the opportunity to keep scammers from getting another penny from good people who could use help not another kick in the groin!! Thanks for the info!

    I got a call, unsoliited  214 736 3470 after I asked the man to take me off his calling list he called me a [***] I hung up and he oalled me back with a barrage of insults and names.  He call me several names including Bessh, I am assuming that was his meager attempt to call me a [***] lol.  I intended to call the phone company and BBB and see what if anything I can do to file a formal complaint.  Not sure How they even got my number as I never applied for an online loan with them

    Be aware of this guys who tried very hard to collect upfront fees for loan you don't have yet. They called me and said that I have been approved for $7000.00 I said ok what do I need to do now. Well he said all you have to is to very in the next 45 minutes that I have $149 to very that I am not going to run away with the money. so I replied and said that is not the way you verify if I am capable of paying. he was very defensive and said well we can not give you a loan and I replied And said :"you are  not going to a [***] from me either." he hang up his phone. Just be aware of thises thieves with strong accent from India or parkistan.

    I'm glad i read this.   I was about to go to walgreens and  get a reciept for $275 for a deposit on a $3,000 loan.  But i as approved for $7,000.  This money is all i have.  Their accents are too strong.I was called from two different companies that had indian accents. One guy's name was norman at 646-461-1353.  The other's were named david miller and jack at 214-736-3470.  I am so glad i read this cuz i would have lost every i had.  Thank you.
