This sounds like the company that tried to scam me yesterday. They now go by CSh Loan Capital, and give their address in D.C. I've been shopping around for a loan online. These guys must've got hold of one of my applications floating out there, and have been trying to reach me fror the past few days. I finally took their call yesterday, and they offered me an unsecured loan of $5,000.00 but required me to go to a Walmart and pay a deposit of $350.00 in insurance. The insurance was supposedly coming from AIG.
They purportedly wanted me to call them when I reached Walmart so they could "guide" me through this "deposit" process. The guy I was speaking to, Eddie Young, was trying to act over-smart, so I really grilled him over the details of the entire process. The cheats sounded like people you'd talk to at a call center in India. They go to accent schools there to learn the American accent in order to work at call centers. The guy scoffed at me when I asked if they were in India. I've dealt with many a call centers so I know when my call has been routed overseas.
This duffer was being rather vague about how I would redeem that deposit - would I be getting a card with money on it or a check; when I would be able to deposit that money, etc. So now it was the turn of a "Senior Verification Officer" - Thomas Phillips, to step in. He assured me that I could request that the $350.00 be deposited into my account with my loan, which supposedly would become available within minutes after getting this voucher. Then why make me pay it in the first place? My instincts were signaling me this was a scam, and I listened.
Here's the contact information they gave me:
Cash Loan Capital, 409 Third Street, SW, Washington, D.C. 20416. Phone: 212.930.2108. I found that there is a FedEx, SBA, FDIC, around that area when I checked online later. The "Cash Loan Capital" business shows up located in SoCal; but there's no phone number listed for them. Funny thing is this guy went to quite an extent of schooling me on DFI, the federal agency that apparently regulates their business, but the address he gave me, happened to house the FDIC, not Cash Loan Capital, aka Cheats&Frauds!
