I GOT A CALL SAYING I WAS APPROVED FOR $5,000.00 FROM THE ONE HOUR LOAN COMPANY.

I got a call saying I was approved for $5,000.00 from one hour loan company.  I did not appy for a loan from them. This is scary!!!

Continuous calls with no one there.  Finally left above number for approved loan not requested.  Did not return calls.  Have also received calls for other scam companies.

This number was continuously calling me. A man with a thick Indian accent who calls himself Allen Marshall told me I was approved for a 5000.00 loan. He told me I had to put 100.00 on a green dot pre paid card. This was supposed to be proof that I could make the monthly loan payment and since my credit is not all that great. I put the mo eyes on the card and never got the loan. I was ripped off. I feel pretty stupid..I need to know what can be done to stop these people and press criminal charges. That's what they are is criminals. .

I ALSO WAS CALLED BY THESE PEOPLE TELLING ME I WAS APPROVED FOR 2000 ..THEY SAID ALL I HAD TO DO WAS GET A GREEN DOT MONEY PAK CARD WITH 120 DOLLARS ON IT TOE SHOW PROOF I COULD MAKE PAYMENTS ON LOAN..STUPID WAS I TO DO SO...THEN HE ASKED ME FOR ANOTHER 200 BECAUSE HE SAID MY CREDIT SCORE WAS A LITTLE LOW..SO THE 200 WOULD UP MY SCORE AND BANK OF AMERICA WOULD RELEASE MY FUNDS AND PUT IN BANK..I TOLD HIM HE WAS FULL OF [***]...I TOLD HIM I WANTED MY MONEY BACK AND HE YELLED AT ME SAYING HE WAS TRYING TO HELP ME ETC....[***]...THEY WERE MIDDLE EASTERN..I COULD BARELY UNDERSTAND WHAT HE SAID...IM SUCH AN IDIOT..HE KEEPS CALLING ME..I WONT ANSWER...I LOST 100  BUCKS..LESSON LEARNED...

And, you never will.
The scammer recognized you as somebody who was very gullible, and continued to milk you for money.
Since you fell for that scam, you are probably going to fall for others, unless you educate yourself.
Copy the following, print it, and paste it near your computer monitor.

Things to believe:

• There ain't no such thing as a free lunch.
• If it sounds (or looks) too good to be true, it probably is.
• You have not won big bucks from a benign benefactor, a pot of pesos from PCH, dinero from a doctor, or a grant from a gracious government
• The tooth fairy really does not exist
• Everything you read on the internet is not necessarily true.
• It is illegal to ask for money for a loan or prize, before awarding the loan or prize!
• "Free Trips" are loaded with mandatory & costly extras, and you usually must give them your card number after listening to a loooong spiel at a hotel.
• Microsoft or one of their agents did NOT cold call you to fix your computer.
• The moon is not made of green cheese.
• The IRS will snailmail you, rather than phone you, if there is a problem.
• Jackalope milk is not an aphrodisiac.
• If you "green dot", MoneyGram or Western Union money to a scammer, the money is gone.
• You should beware of Greeks bearing gifts, specially if the gift is a wooden horse with termites.
