I got a $700 loan from WithU loans. When I signed the agreement it said that there would be 5 payments of $139. I made 4 payments and went to check my account because they said I hadn’t made my payment. The payment had already come out of my account so I wanted to talk to someone. When I looked at the account it said I owed $900! On the phone they said my interest rate was 523% Who in their right mind would agree to that?! They also set me up for payments every two weeks until 2023!

This fake loan company sent me a DocuSign pretending to be Lending Club and they had already had all my banking information. I was under the impression that the loan company was real due to the DocuSign. I contacted them about it and they told me they were going to be depositing a check in my bank Via Mobile deposit. They deposited a check for $830 that had said it was from Quest Diagnostics, once the check was available they told me to go purchase gift cards certain ones and then call them back with the info. When I finally realized it was a scam I contacted my bank and they weren't too happy about it and wanted me to pay back all the money and now I think that they close my account out and sent all that over to the credit bureau which messed up my credit. I still have text messages and the DocuSign paperwork from them. I called them from a different number and they are still actively scamming people. They answer the phone like they are the real Lending Club and say that the calls are being recorded. When I confronted them about being a fake company they blocked my number. I even have pictures of the fake check that they had deposited in my account. I have three kids and was looking forward to this loan I had applied for a loan through Experian and then it sent me to different loan directors who may be able to help me and somehow these people got my info.

Applied for a loan on a website an was reached by text message in regards to getting a $5k loan. Person asked for identifying information and then an email was sent by their "loan manager" "Shawn Smith" which was a gmail address (which I found odd for a loan company to be texting me loan documentation and emailing me from personal accounts with silly names). I received a call from the woman who identified herself as "Christina Boston" and she said that it would take 90 minutes and to "keep my phone around". By this time I was was pretty uncomfortable with the situation. "Christina" said that they would call me in the morning to verify the funds had been added to my account. The following morning no funds had been added- no surprise- and I googled the address and it doesn't exist. The business is not registered on the Florida states agency, there are NO reviews about it anywhere online. I contacted them and told them this and "Sam Smith" said "I am finding my address on google right now!" I was then informed that I would be called back when the money was deposited. 30 minutes later or so they (Sam Smith) called again and told me that they would depositing a small amount in my bank account and in order to verify my identity and "make me a customer" I had to send it right back immediately via CashApp. Asking me the age of my bank account and how long I have used CashApp. All of this was peculiar to me and obviously shady and I said no and he was insistent and asked me why, said that they had to "verify" things this way because they "lost millions" last year. STAY AWAY from these scam artists. I believe that they are a married couple or a family of scammers. They have a thick middle eastern accent so you know who's calling you when they do- in case they try to change their names.

I was trying to find a company to give me a small loan online and they contacted me. They had all my information including my bank account information the only thing they needed from me was an 8 digit number that my bank called and gave me. I didn't know any better and gave it to them, well something didn't sit well with me while I was on the phone with them I tried to get online they changed my password so I called the bank immediately! Don't fall for what I did. Don't ever give out that 8 digit number I didn't know that until tonight.
