Complaint 36213 Details

The same thing happened to me. For me, they called me on the phone after I left only my name and phone number on a website. I was interested in a loan but, in no way did I take one when I learned #1 - There are not legal in Pa. #2 - The interest was way too high #3 - I became aware of these scams. I for sure never agreed to any $30 fee when I only needed $100 for three days. They did the same thing with the "wash" as well (adding cents and subtracting), this is the way they test your bank account to make sure it is open. A few days later they debit you $30.00. I called to and did get to speak to someone. She apologized and then promised to refund my account. I was thinking "Yea right" and then asked her how she could do this to people who were obviously on hard times. She said "I have a family to feed" I said "I do too". They also sold my information to numerous people whom I have been getting scam calls from. They say I defaulted on a payday loan and they are going to come and have me arrested. They threaten your family as well, saying they are going to "harass your family next" and then somehow know your parents name. This is my first exposure to this and wonder where the government is on these scams. I am sure if we all had lots of money they would be all over this but, since most who investigate payday loans are struggling - who cares - right?
