This loaning agency claims their server are down so everything has to be done through Western Union. The first one was $160 to claim a $1200 loan they would wire back directly. Then to verify the thing, they asked for $265 again, through Western Union. Apparently the 2nd payment was blocked so it had to be unblocked by of course, coughing up ANOTHER $265 Western Union payment. O.K. so at the moment the "IRS" is currently in the way so they are asking for $439 to cover the taxes and finally wire the loan. After the 4TH and supposedly final payment, $3200 will be wired back. ($1100 for Western Union, $900 bonus [for being so understanding] & of course, $1200 for the loan) - Going through with the $439 payment just to prove this thing isn't a scam!! Could U guys just check it out?

- Hello, my name is Stephanie and on Friday the 26th I was scammed by this very same number. I spoke to a deeply (Indian) accented man named "Ricky" who told me I was guaranteed a 1500 dollar loan but the servers were "down" so I wired 185 dollars just to be told there would be another 285 dollar fee. When I told him I sent all my money he said there's nothing he could do. I did some research and this company is a SCAM! It is illegal for business to wire money to other individuals through money wiring services and since he's based in "Washington DC" he's not even supposed to offer loans to NY residents. When I realized I was scammed I called Western Union's fraud prevention line and gave them the number and name of the false company. Then I filed a report with the local police and state attorney general. Then I called back Ricky and told him that I reported him and he had the audacity to be rude and nasty with me but he was scared. I advise for you to do these things as well. If you get the chance call him TODAY and tell him you reported him to the police and that "Cash Advance" has been flagged on scambook and various other sites. It's time for the victims of his scams to take back the power.
