I put my details on a website for a loan of 7,500 pounds, and Citi Finance company called me and introduced themselves as a loan company. They said they got my details from a loan comparison site and that I had to pay an upfront fee of 280. I was convinced because they took my bank sort code and account number, and they said they did not need the long number on the card or the 3 numbers on the signature strip.
So I paid 280 pounds using Ukash vouchers, as they requested. After I gave them the voucher details, they said they were going to call me back to let me know they had deposited the loan amount I was looking for. They called as promised, and to my surprise they requested more money, and I told them I had no money left. I told them if they didn't want to give me the loan, they had better give me my money back, and they said there was a cancellation fee of 100 pounds. I told them they could take 100 pounds from the money I had given them already and give me back 180 pounds. They said they were going to call me back. They never called back, and when I tried to call the number I was given, it was out of reach.
