Type of a scam Advance Fee Loan

I believe this business are scam artists. They called me left a message telling me im approved for a loan.i have bad credit so i was excited! But i need collateral; options- mortgage, co signer or a security deposit. I agreed to submit a sec deposit. $946.00 based on a 13,000 loan. To be refunded after 3 months of on time payments or use towards principal. It sounded great! But if something seems to good yo be true it usually is. They emailed me documents to be signed and to copy my driver license, ss card, and pay stub. Upon which they would send me info as to where to send my sec deposit. Hours later in my email the document said to send my dec deposit western union to a name that i never heard of and upon receipt of that they would deposit 13000 into my account. I thought that was fishy so i researched. I cant find anything legit about the company beside their website which i think is fake and how to spot a scam. They have all the makings of a scam as per the info from how to know a scam. I called them out on their bs but this was after i already submitted my identity. Im so glad i did not send any money. I emailed them back telling them their a scam and to shred my documents, how dare you take advantage of peoples vulnerability and i said prove to me your a legit company. They emailed back only saying im now not approved and they are not interested in my sec deposit, but i can use a co signer by the end of the day. Please investigate these frauds. Their email is [email protected], Patrick Morris is the man I spoke to and communicated with via email.
