The reason that people steal your identity is to use the credit that you have built up. You have no credit. So, there's no point in stealing your identity. Chances are, they cashed your Money gram and threw out your contract, right before hitting the titty bar. I'd tell you to never buy anything off the internet, but you already know that now. At least you didn't keep sending money. Some people send $900 first, then another $300, and finally their last $18. The address of the scam is a private mailbox. Gee, big surprise, huh? For anyone else who is reading this, there is no such thing as paying a fee to secure a loan. No company is going to loan you money if you have bad credit, not for any amount of security. The only thing that ever happens is you lose whatever you sent, and the idiots laugh at you and waste your money on drugs and whores. Or, in west hollywood, queers. What you do need to be carefull of is another phone call in a month or so. The crooks pass your name around. They give you a couple of months to save up some more money, and then they call you with another offer. This time, it could be a phony credit card with a $5,000 limit. One last thing. Don't bother calling the attorney general again. It's a waste of time. This kind of scam never seems to get shut down. I don't know if they don't have the manpower to investigate, or if they just don't care, or what. It's sad that desperate people lose so much to this scam. This is why I always tell people to never buy anything off of the internet.
