This company called because I was searching for a personal loan. They were offering me a $10,000 loan but I had to show that I can pay the first payment of $328 on a apple I tunes card. They called me four more times for protection payment plan for $480, $428, $500 $500 and $499 to cover my bank fees and wanted me to pay $720 for tax purposes because I live in New York. I immediately told them to cancel my application and refund my money to my bank account. They told me I had to get $380 to cancel. They made me give them the bar codes on the I tune cards that I have in my possession and don’t know if they are valid.
