This is a Green Dot MoneyPak scam. They approve you for a loan. Want you send the card (s) to an insurance company to pay for creditors insurance. Then they want you to email/fax a copy of the 14 digit number on the back of the card for their records, then say good bye to your loan and money. A legit finance company would not require payment upfront, they would deduct from loan amount. ALWAYS do research, DON'T be SCAMMED.

7 Tips on How to Protect Yourself from Fraud:
*Never give your MoneyPak number to someone you don’t know.
*Never give receipt information about your MoneyPak purchase to another party.
*Use your MoneyPak only to reload your prepaid cards or accounts you control.
*Refuse any offer that asks you to buy a MoneyPak and share the number or receipt information by email or phone.
*To use your MoneyPak with PayPal or eBay or other online merchants, transfer the money to your PayPal account before you pay the merchant. Don’t email your MoneyPak number directly to any merchant.
*Don’t use the MoneyPak to pay taxes or fees to claim “winnings” on a foreign lottery or prize promotion. Unless it’s an approved MoneyPak partner, don’t use MoneyPak for any offer that requires you to pay before you get the item.
*Check list of approved MoneyPak partners before you use your MoneyPak to pay.
