Cash Advance Scam

Today, January 13th this George Bloom character contacted me via phone responding to a Craigslist ad I've had posted for probably severally months now. After a few weeks you become fairly experienced at identifying scams right out of the gate.

Red Flag #1. Mr. Bloom went into his usual sales pitch about being a "direct lender", but not being a traditional loan lender.instead, he has "underwriters" offering "cash advances" to his customers which are paid back using a customers business banking account "weekly." Weekly? Wow. So if you're a direct lender and you have underwriters handling your distribution of cash, how are again a "direct lender?"

Red Flag #2. Goes on to say that he has several customers throughout the United States, but when asked which customers, can't name off "one" from the top of his head and instead has to pull up some spreadsheet which is conveniently not available at the time of the conversation.

I immediately just hung up. After which, I immediately received another phone call from now an "unknown" number that went straight to my voice mail being Mr. Bloom, stating he will send over all relevant information via e-mail. No e-mail ever received, thankfully.

You have to be very careful of these preposterous schemes people out there will try and throw at you. Anyone asking for money "up-front" so you will receive an even larger sum of money writing it off as a "good faith" fee giving you a false sense that you're taking some of the risk along for the ride is a joke. Don't do it.

I only deal with people locally that I can meet face to face, which is even stated in my ad. Yet, you still get these desperate degenerates contacting you, not abiding by your ad stipulations.
