Type of a scam Other
I was online looking for a personal loan and was turned down online. A couple of hours later a man named Sam Thomes called me and told me that after talking to his associate, David Martin, that I was approved for a personal loan. All I had to do was take the money that they were going to put into my checking account and withdraw it and take it to either Western Union or Walmart to send it back to them in order to prove to them that I can be trusted. When I turned them down Mr. Martin became very angry and kept trying to get me to do what he said. I again turned him down and I hung up on him.

Type of a scam Advance Fee Loan
I had completed an on-line search in need of a small installment loan. A few hours later I received a call from 817-402-0091 and it was a recording stating I had been approved for $5,000 loan from EZ Loans. I was alarmed due to the amount being more than requested. However, I needed to call and verify my information for the deposit to be made. I called and was told the payments would be $150 a month. I was then told to go to convince store to purchase some type of type of card in the amount of $150 and I would get it back in addition to the loan amount. This was to insure they would receive their payment every month for 38 months. I told the guy I was going to report him to BBB. I have literally received a voice recorded message every hour on the hour for the 6 hours straight. I even have a few voice message of the recorded message that I have been receiving.

Ez loans contacted ,concerning a personal loan of $5,000 loan.
I was instructed to go buy a steam card of $150,from 7/11.
I purchased the card gave them my banking info

They told me that they were going take out the monthly installment every month from my bank acct.
I never agreed to any amout to be taken out .
After recognizing this as a scam I called my bank and place a debit hold on my acct.The rep stated that regardless if i recieved the money or not,and i didnt that they still will take the money out..
I called the rep back and he hung up several times on me.
