Scam Description
I was approached for a loan and told if I make my first payment the loan would then be deposited into my account. I made $500 payment. The the company “Advanced Marathon” said the bank was blocking the loan deposit. When I asked for a refund they said the would do that. Now the number I called is saying it’s not a working number, I’m out $500 and my account is going into the negative and they have my social security number and bank account information.
