My boyfriend was trying to take out a loan due to us moving. He was contacted by an "agent" of this loan company who told him they could have the $2000 transferred within 45 mins and all he would have to do is get a GreenDot card and load it with $200 to show that the first payment due funds will be there and that the funds would not be removed from the card until the payment was to be made. An hr later there was still no transfer money in the accounts and so he called the guy back. The guy then said he needed to do another GreenDot card for $220... Luckily he didn't do that one but the previous $200 was removed from the card. When he asked where it was or would he get it back since the asked amount wasn't put into the bank he was told that he'd been scammed and they hung up. Its an awful situation.
