This group tried to take advantage of me trying to get a quick loan. A loan for $2000..They had me open my bank account and put $400 into my checking account. To cover if I didn’t make payments that $400 was there insurance coverage. They wanted me to use my Apple Card but it wouldn’t work so they had me get a Walmart pre-paid card. I got it and using the $400 had it loaded on the card. After this I called them giving the info on the card. They now wanted me to have the card scanned. Going back in Walmart Customer Service the service member told me that this was a scam all the while this company was on the phone with me so called guiding me through the process. He heard the Walmart service member telling the company that this was a scam. I hung up after this and changed all my banking info. They are still calling. In all that happened I am very grateful for the Walmart service member and what was said. I feel like a fool and learned a lesson from this experience

This number is calling my cell phone daily. A person by the name of Jessica leaves a voicemail, about a loan application needing more information. I've haven't submitted any loan applications. The call sounds choppy and, Jessica as she calls herself sounds incoherent. This is occurring several times of day, well into the night.

Type of a scam Advance Fee Loan

I am filing this complaint to report fraudulent activities conducted by Tradelineoasis, which claims to offer co-signing services for loans to individuals with poor credit. The company, which is supposedly run by Andre Wilson (likely a fake name), advertises various service packages on its website, purporting to assist clients in obtaining loans by applying under their name and depositing the funds directly into the client’s account.

I chose one of the packages and paid $500 for the service as instructed. The company required payment in cryptocurrency, claiming it was more secure. After I completed the payment and provided proof, they requested additional personal information, including my full name, address, Social Security number, and bank account details, allegedly for processing the loan and making the deposit. Despite following all their instructions, I never received the promised loan deposit, and the company ceased all communication with me once payment was made.

To test whether they were selectively ignoring customers, I contacted Tradelineoasis from a different email address to inquire about their services, and they responded promptly, indicating they are actively choosing to ignore customers after payment. Additionally, I attempted to leave a negative review to alert others, only to discover that all reviews are moderated and must be approved by the website owner, explaining why only positive reviews appear.

The payment was made using Bitcoin through Cash App, leaving me unable to dispute the transaction or recover the funds. Moreover, my Cash App account was subsequently closed due to “suspicious activity.”

I believe that Tradelineoasis is engaging in fraudulent business practices, false advertising, and potentially identity theft. They falsely represent this as a legitimate and legal way to obtain a loan and assure customers that their information is secure, which I now know is false.

Potential Laws Violated:

1. Wire Fraud (18 U.S.C. § 1343): Using electronic communications to deceive individuals into sending money and disclosing personal information under false pretenses.

2. Identity Theft (18 U.S.C. § 1028): Soliciting sensitive personal information (e.g., Social Security number and bank account details) under fraudulent pretenses.

3. False Advertising and Misrepresentation (15 U.S.C. § 45): Engaging in deceptive practices by misrepresenting services and controlling review visibility to create a misleading positive reputation.

4. State Consumer Protection Laws: Various state laws prohibit unfair and deceptive acts or practices in commerce.

I request that the ScamPulse.com investigate Tradeline Oasis and take appropriate actions against them for their fraudulent activities. I also urge the ScamPulse.com to warn other potential victims about this scam.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Sincerely, ***** *******

I received a call that I was approved for a loan from $2000 - $8000. They sent a agreement for me to sign and asked for my ID. After that she stated that since my credit was lower than 700 I needed to either purchase insurance for $283 or pay 5% of the loan amount upfront which was $100. If I paid by debit or credit card it would take like 12 days to process but if I paid with a ebay card it would be processed in 30 minutes and it would be refunded to me within 2 days. At that point I started doing my research.

On June 9, 2024 I was searching thru Facebook about lending company and I send message to one them and apparently Instant

Loan Lender answered my inquiries. Mr. William Richards sent me a Google form to fill up my information. I was applying for $2,000

loan and he told me that I need to pay 10% of the loan amount for application fee. On June 10,2024 he asked me to pay the $200

thru apple card ($100) and thru BTC ($100). I asked him why apple card and he told me that they have a gift card mining machine to

turn the gift card into a cash. On June 12, 2024 he told me that he will going to mail my checks but the amount is $4,500 and once

the check is clear I will get the $2,000 and bring back the $2,500 to them. I deposited the check on June 14,2024 and on June 20 I

received a letter from my bank NOTICE OF EXTENDED CHECK HOLD. On June 23 I received a letter again from my bank that the

check was returned. They told me that they will just send it thru Western Union but I need to pay $600 for the transfer fee which I

paid on June 29 thru BTC ($300) and apple card. And ($300). On June 30, 2024 a certain Sudais Buba from the CREDIT BANK OF

AMERICA AND EUROPE that I need to get a clearance certificate from the CENTRAL BANK OF EUROPE and I need to pay $800 for

the certificate. And when I'm about to ask them why they don't advice the client regarding this fees and they told me they don't know

to think they are working in the loan company for 5 years. I talked to a certain name SANDRA with cellphone number (209) 682-5486

and she is from the banking department of INSTANT LOAN LENDER and now I'm asking her about the fees she told me that they

don't know about this fees and the loan amount is already deducted from their account and its with the CREDIT BANK OF AMERICA

AND EUROPE already. The Total amount that I pay is $1,300 because I stopped when they keep on asking more money.

Moses called and asked if I still needed a loan. I said yes. I told him I needed 1500.00, we went over my pay, and the length of time for the loan. He said I was approved and my Bi-monthly payments would be $132.00, all I had to do was purchase the credit service for $20.00, would not be taken out until the funds were deposited into my account. I have to give my debit card information, I asked Moses why they can't take that money out of the loan. He said they will once funds were deposited into my account. I told Moses, I wasn't sure about this since I only had $13.00 in my account. I said I was a little nervous because this was sounding like a scam. He said no, no, would a scammer only want $20.00. He assured me the funds would not be taken out for the Suave Score Credit service. He said I would get more information and the financial paperwork in 10 minutes. After ten minutes I checked my bank account and Suave Score charged my account $14.95. I have not received any money. They made me think I was getting money and, will probably charge my account for 6.00 more dollars for the remaining funds.
