Type of a scam Phishing

I was displaced by hurricane Harvey, and was in the process of applying for a payday loan when I received a call "originating" from Chicago. I was asked for the last 4 of my social. As soon as I provided the information, the call was mysteriously disconnected. I called back, told the operator the above information, and again was disconnected. A third call revealed that the number was no longer in service. Buyer beware!

Type of a scam Advance Fee Loan

I have requested a Loan From them last month.. they have approved a Loan amount of $4000.00. Then right after they approved it They asked me for a Processing fee that is worth $130. I have sent the said amount but after that they again asked for another $220 for a Non residential Tax fee as I am not residing in US. I told them that I cant send the said amount, then they said that they will cover up the amount & I can give them how much money I have. So I sent them $80. Then right after 2 days they said that the Tax Official are holding my loan to be sent cause the tax fee is not completed. They told me that the Tax Official are strictly not allowing them to cover up the tax fee. Now they are pushing me to send them the $140 to complete the transaction.

I asked them to just refund the modem I sent for the processing then they told yes I can get a refund. But days have passed still no update from them. After 4 days they are keep on telling me that the tax official are holding it and they cannot return the money. They said that the tax official already doing the tax documentation and not allowing the bank to refund the money.

I asked a proof of their Legitimacy & they have given me a contract saying that they will process the loan once I completed the payment. When I checked the Document they sent it is shows that it is located in London bu their office is at Louisville Kentucky.

They call at between 7am and 7:30am saying I have contacted them for a payday. By the time I wake up it is very hard to get a response. This morning I called back many times because this was the third call during this time period. I did not contact them and have not in the last 5 years if I ever did. So first of all I should not get a call before 8 am. I have been calls from deft collectors for a foreign name on my cell and home phone so I have told them that person does not live at this#. I will take care that later but I should not be getting calls from a busness before 7 am.
