Scam Description
I was contacted by ray martin telling me that i was approved for an $8000 loan, which i very much needed. He said that because my credit was so low he would make 3 or 4 deposits to my bank account to get it above the negative balance it was in. He explained to me that these would be in the form of vendor credits and sure enuff about 2 hours later my bank account was now +$966 with credits hitting my account from some vendors i had done businesd with. He told me that once i paid him back via cash app then the $8000 would be deposited to my account. They sent me abloan agreement signed by Don ******. Asking for my banking information. I thot okay i will give it to them to see if they deposit any money into my bank account. I cant lose at this point. Then after the vendor credits hit and i fidnt respond back to them. They emailed me an arrest warrant for my person and allso threatened to report me to the ssa where i get my disability. I then contacted paige at advance america and she told me that not only do they not have a ray martin working for them. But they dont offer loans in the state of georgia!
