A scam company that takes over your personal account and pretends it’s depositing money into your account but in reality they are reversing payments already made to companies that you have paid. They tell you that you are being sent the money and it should say Reversal as the deposit. All it is is your own money. Then they want you to **** *** or other ways to send them the fake deposits to them via **** *** or anything like that. If you question them they get very upset. You get locked out of your bank account. All your connections to your account are removed. And they have 100% control of everything on your account. They do it very quickly y texting you and have you share what ever texts with codes that are sent to you. When you get locked out of your account I believe the number you are given goes to them not your bank. I was smart enough not to transfer fun’s right back. It had my car payment company name on it. Not Advance America. When i logged on the real website site by googling it. There was no record of “my loan” So my suggestion is not to do any texting with any online loan company that reaches out in this name. Go directly to the website and verify that it’s themReview from Makerita B

I received a text letter saying I was approved but I already did my research and saw their reviews here and wanted to see how rhis would go. A guy answered I asked to speak with Kelly W***** who sent the letter and she came on said I was approved for 5K I said I needed 12k loan she said they could approve 10k I said please put me on your so not call list since I needed more. She said and I quote "**** *** *****"??. Plus her accent surely did not make her sound like a "Kelly w*****"???? They need to be shut down. People working and are still struggling looking for legit loans and you have idiots out here looking to rip people off.Review from John M

This is a fraudulent business. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY. They will ask you for access to your bank account and they will file claims pretending to be you. And when the money is placed back in your account they will then ask you to purchase gift cards to return the money. The will also contact your bank and pretend to be you. I have been promised a loan for three weeks and never received it. One contacts name of the company is Mark .Review from MELISSA W

They should be shutdown!!! They prey on the desperate who really want to believe it’s not a scam. Well it is! Luckily I caught on to them before anything happened! They assured me I will get my loan after the send me a certain amount of money and that I need to send it right back…that was my first clue but I was so in need of the funds I said ok. Something just kept telling me this isn’t right. Then I got several emails from my bank that said I filed a claim for my car loan company to get money back…. Ummmm that wasn’t me! Luckily my bank took care of it. I texted than a really long text letting them know I was not going thru with the loan. The guy texted me back to assure me everything was on the up and up. I texted back what the bank told me and basically called him out. He never responded! So please don’t get scammed by them! Besides barely being able to understand a word he said there were so many other red flags!!! SHUT THEM DOWN!!!Review from Kathryn H

Trying to get a loan for $3000, started the procedure where I had to go and withdraw money from my account and pay them. To get the $3000. Charles W******* was the loan officer.

ONLINE FRAUD. We went through the online service for advance America loans. And got approve for a 3000$. Spoke to this guy named Eric amd Roger b**** his so called manger. This call came from a ****** number We supplied them with our creditors and online accounts login Which was fishy from the beginning. I played it smart and gave him account that had little to nothing in it. They said they had to do a verification transaction and deposit the funds and send it bk to them.. I said fine. I noticed they were trying to reverse payments on some of my paid accounts amd I questioned them They try to give me the walk around about getting the account positive then they van do the deposit. Ooook sure. Multiple ppl.called us about this loan all from ****** numbers *** so if u see this number with *** don't answer block it. This process took all day and they still didn't Deposit that money.
