loansforemergancies.com Neil johnson Roger Lou parker Elon meles Naomie conserve lauredan talked me into western union them about 1000 dollars, they state a tefund is not possible unless i send them more money. they already got me and now theycwanna get me again Internet
I applied for a loan from loans for emergencies.com. I received a phone call telling me I had been approved for 1000. I needed to western union them 256.00 to ensure that I was capblable of repaying loan, no need to worry they were going to western union the money right back in less than 20min. 1hr later I'm told the very last thing I need to do is send an additional 347.00 for insurance to god forbid I become a victim of fraud (lmfao) or get sick or even possibly loose my job I was insured and covered no need to sorry. Again 20 min I would get my money back. Money sent. 1hr later I'm told there is a problem with my application. My middle initial is not on the form. Mind you my middle name had never been mentioned before. I'm told that if I don't do another transaction 347.00 they could not process the loan. As I was in the process of sending the money the lady at western union caught it as a scam and stopped the transaction. They refuse to take my calls. The person I am talking to is always the supervisor. They can never newer any question I ask them. I have contacted western union and the police but both say there is nothing they can do.

Please go to the FTC(dot)gov website and read up on scams. You fell for the Advance Fee Loan scam. Short version is this: there is no loan. The scammer keeps asking for money from you until you catch onto the scam. If you need a loan, why would you send money to a lender? There is no valid reason to do so, and in fact, is a big red flag that you are involved in a scam.
You will not see your money back. They tell you they will send it back in 20 minutes to get you to send them the funds. Next time, just say no. Take a look at the FTC scam section so you can see the pattern and won't fall for it again. It is very likely they will call you again because the scammer has been successful at getting funds from you this time. Twice. So be on the lookout for more calls for additional funds at anytime in the future. Remember to say no to any request for funds to be sent to a stranger via an untraceable method for any reason.
