First Cash Advance Promised significant loan after small loan to boost credit rating but required my Bank username and password Chicago Illinois
This company contacted me by phone by a man named Ronnie with a pakistani accent and promised to deposit a loan amount of $3000 in my account but in order to get that amount my credit score would have to be raised on their system. In order to do that they would deposit a small amount of $200 and I would repay that amount back in good faith. Then they would deposit the $3000 that I desperately needed. The problem came when they asked for my username and password for my bank account. So I called my bank on a third party line and merged a conference call with Ronnie he immediately hung up the phone when the bank representitive introduced herself. I immediately changed my bank information.

These scammers are getting very bold now by asking for your banking information over the phone! I sincerely hope others follow your example and don't give out bank information (any info) to a stranger. I would add that no one should have your info but you. There is no reason others need your password. Thank you for the heads up...
