Cash Advance America Ryan, Jennifer, Ashley and Michael Butler Scammed me into buying gift cards in order to get loan. Los Fresno Texas
I was looking for loan services on line, Ryan from Cash Advance America contacted me and offered a $3000.00 loan. Then they had me talk to Jennifer and then Ashley. By the time I finished with Ashley I had already spent $1,160.00 in gift cards for different processing fees.
On the day I was to get the loan they asked for another $200.00, which I did not have. Now I'm out $1,160.00 and no loan. They refuse to refund my money. Can you advise me as to what I can do?

The only advice is to treat this as a very expensive lesson, because your money is gone.
Sorry if this is rough but you got scammed. It is illegal to be required to pay any "Processing Fee", "Good Faith payment" or "Insurance" for a loan in advance. Sometimes something like a fee for a Credit Check is allowed, but that should be no more than $20-$50 and they would NEVER ask for a Gift Card.
The reason you will not see any money again is because they had you send Gift Cards which is basically cash and untraceable. The names they gave you are fake. The E-mail addresses are "free" addresses that are totally anonymous.
If they gave you a Phone Number that is to a cell phone or IP phone paid for with a stolen credit card. If they gave you a website that again was a site paid for by a stolen credit card. All of their contact methods will be shut down within a few weeks. If they gave you an address that either doesn't exist or belongs to a company that is totally unrelated to them. The chances of them actually being in the US, let alone Texas is about zero.
