Advance fee loans are illegal period and ins some states, so are the payday loans.  There are thieves impersonating some of the real company's BTW. Cashnet is one of them.  Please be aware this same bunch may also claim down the road that you have taken a loan and try to extort more money from you!

Thank God for the internet

This guy called me from a unknown number and said "this is the financial government telling you that you have own $7,000. You don't have to pay taxes or pay back the money." He knew my full name and area I live in! (Scary!) he said "call this number 360-861-4270 so that you can claim your reward" This is hilarious LOL!
