I was looking for a on line loan when I received an email saying I was approver for 6000 dollar loan, I was contacted by Ryan Paul via telephone and began the process. since my account was in the negative they deposited 2,045.62 into my account on 9-15-2022, after I was contacted again by Ryan Paul and told that I needed to send back 1000 of the money to help boost my credit score, which I did using to walmart pre paid master cards, he told me that the 6000 would be deposited into my account on next business day, On 9-19-2022 the check was returned due to ISF and my account was overdrawn over 2000 dollars, he then informed me that the remaining 80 dollars needed to be returned before they could make the deposit, which I also sent with a walmart pre paid master card, he has not answered any of my calls or emails and my account is 2500 overdrawn.
