Scamming - Fraud
Below, is another fake "Advance America Cash Advance" email sent by a scammer pretending to be from Advance America Cash Advance, who wants me to give him back money he claimed he deposited into my account for verification proposes. He then started asking for login credentials for online banking and saying me he deposit the funds in my account because it will boost up my credit score. But, I know that legitimate companies will never ask for banking credentials.
With this type of scam, the scammers put a fake check in your account and trick you into sending the money from that check. Once your bank has discovered that the check is a fake, you will have to pay back the money and the check processing fees.

I just received the email today. I had to look it up and am saddened that it's a scam.
There has to be a way to press charges against this company
Is there any way to prosecute this company for the wrong they've done to me and others
I recieved an email from this “company” stating I was approved for a loan up to $8000. They attached the agreement in Microsoft Word format. Now I could be wrong but any loan company I’ve dealt with does not put it in Word format. Seems like they did that just to copy the real websites logo. In reading the agreement the name of the company changed from Advance Cash America to Advance America to a completely different loan company that with I looked up was nonexistent. And it seems like they change the name just enough throughout the email that someone just skimming through might not catch. I’ve been in tight spot with money and these guys know how to take advantage of it!! So BE CAREFUL guys!! I suggest going to the actual loan companies website to do anything. Or call their customer service number. Don’t call any numbers listed in an email!! Happy Hunting
Advance America Data protection ACT 1998 loan approved call 413-327-7275. Deposit small amount of money into my account then I am supposed to go to walmart and send their money back all within 90 minutes?
Yes Norman Blackwell is a fraud, stole 778, had my account information address and everything. Said I was approved for a 8k loan never, got nothing
