Type of a scam Advance Fee Loan
Dude started off by saying he put $500 in my account but all I had to do was deposit the money back to them at 8 in the morning and then they’ll give me $2,000 for doing that. This guy was boring as hell nd tried saying his name was James Spencer after Ii told him I needed to get my cat fixed and he asked my cats name n that his names spencer n funny coincidence that turned out to be his last name. I did have him email me his credentials got that. And then went while I was on the phone with him still did some research and on the ScamPulse.com and informed him that A1 Cash Advance has been reported for doing more than a few scams in the last few years. He then proceeded to ask me don’t you trust me and I said oh no I don’t know you period. And then he said okay so I get a $200 bonus if I do this transaction with you. And then since my bank account is $3 in the hole he proceeded to remind me about that and how I needed this money in my account. To sum it up, in the end I just hung up on him and blocked his number but he still keeps calling and leaving me voicemails and I’ve already cancelled my bank account and I’m going to go open a new one now. This is some bull[censored] really.

Type of a scam Advance Fee Loan
I had just received a text from A1 Cash Advance stating (in a disclosed group list) they were filing a law suit against my name and when asked who it was he said Sebastain from A1 Cash advance and the suit is for taking approval for a loan and then declining – I might have applied but never approved it to go through and they stated there are charges occurred which I need to bare for cancellation under FTC. When I asked what FTC was no answer so let them know I was going to turn them in for a scam and there is NEVER a charge for declining funds that were approved – I never approved for funds to come to me and never received them even if I did approve them……Please look into.
Thanks!
