First Cash Advance, Michael Hostig First cash advance stopped payment on the check that was deposited into my account causing an overdraft. New York Nationwide
On July 13th, michael hosting from first cash advance called, he told me I was pre-qualified for a $3000 loan. He said all I have to do is to give him my account numbers so he could deposit some money into my account, then I would give it back to qualify. After giving him all the info he asked for, a check for $450 was deposited into my account. It was from Bank of America in New York, after it cleared the next day I called Michael for the next step, he instructed me to go to a Walmart and purchase a gift card for $450. After doing so, I called him and gave him the info from the back of the card. When the time came for the $3000 loan, he said my credit score was too low and that he would lose his job if he approved this deposit,
I told him he said that I was already pre-approved for this loan but he gave me some line that should've raised red flags but didn't. Anyway on the 18th I got a call from my bank saying my account was overdrawn, they said the $450 check was being returned and the bank took the money back causing an overdraft. When I tried calling back to michael, surprise surprise, he played dumb. So I went to my bank and cxl'd the acct's. Got a new Checking acct. and as soon as I receive hostig's rubber check from my bank I will be filing a police report. I had already filed a complaint with the better business Bureau I won't get my money back, but it'll make me feel better, and expensive lesson to learn.
