Type of a scam Debt Collections
Beginning in August 2018, started receiving fraudulent, harrassing debt collection notifications via U.S. mail from an entity identifying itself as Big Picture Loans. Like many others who’ve reported being subject to this scam, have no knowledge of, nor relationship of any kind with said entity. Began receiving identical copies of the same collection form letter every two months. All are noted as being "V4 final," including the first one received. No physical address or name of a company representative is provided. Correspondence escalated to monthly as of February 2019. All envelopes are marked OPEN IMMEDIATELY, use a Presort First-Class Mail US Postage Paid Permit #2142 Bellmawr NJ indicia, and include a return address of P.O. Box 704, Watersmeet, MI 49969. This phishing communication concludes with, "If you believe you have received this message in error, please contact us at the phone number or email indicated above." Have since learned of several instances where callers were asked to provide sensitive personal data when responding.

Type of a scam Advance Fee Loan
They took my info when I tried to confirm my application after receiving my amount and date, it disappeared after I asked about status. She told me I had to renter it because I ‘withdrew’ it. I told her I didn’t and was denied the second time. Even my agreement that I signed disappeared.

Type of a scam Advance Fee Loan
Not exactly sure what the laws are for loans percentages but this one is ridiculous. Of course they cover themselves by stating in the fine print that they charge 780% but most people don’t read that. How can it be legal to charge someone 780%?
And of course it claims to NOT be a pay day loan as if that makes it any better.
