The loan scam is in hopes you will take the loan, then they ask for a green dot or similar card for any number of made op fee's, taxes etc. Once they fleece you from all they can get, you will never see a penny of the loan. They have used real company's names as well as fakes. Down the road, you could also get a call saying you took a loan and threatening arrest because you never paid the fake loan back.
