Scam Description
I received a text message after every other loan company turned me down. I thought I finally had some help, some relief. Except I gave these people $300 in eBay gift cards to show “credibility” that I could pay, and I got nothing. I have no loan. This is a matter of a roof over my head, and I get scammed. There’s a lot of details, but this is the main story. It turns out this company doesn’t even serve my area. This is a photo of one of the gift cards.
