Scam Description
I had been looking for a loan and received an email from Theresa Hayes email address Hayes.t@bllcmfs.com. She told me I was approved for loan that I needed to provide collateral either land, car, home, or collateral payment. I told her I could do the collateral payment which was 3 monthly payments combined for total of $471. She told me to cash app it to the name Gyzzelle Byfield so I did this. And I signed the agreement. She told me I would have the loan within an hour and it never came. Next day emailed said they wanted another payment of $471. She said after that they couldn’t ask for any more and I would have the loan deposited to my account. It never came. Next day she emailed said that they wanted another payment of 1200. She said her company would cover 700 of it that I needed to pay 500 for insurance. She said then I would have the loan and she said I would need to pay the 700 back immediately. I asked for a refund. She replied only saying she put the loan on hold and now won’t reply back to me. I keep asking for a refund immediately and has went silent. I have the loan agreement and all emails between us saved
