The other day I was looking at payday loan sites (yes I know terrible idea) and I found one that interested me. I filled out the information they asked for (including my SSN and bank account number) and after I submitted it they immediately told me I didnt qualify. Right after that my inbox got flooded with spam. I get about 300 spam emails a day now. I also keep getting phone calls and texts that are just spam. Somebody also tried to access my bank account but the bank stopped them. I confronted the website via online live chat (their phones “are not currently working”) and they swear up and down they dont spam and that its not from them. It has to be though because I never got spam before that and a majority of the spam was for payday loans. I want to know if there is some kind of legal action I can take against this site. Hope somebody can help me! Here is a link to their website

They stole it because it was a loan application. They sold it to a bunch of spam sites so yes, I would consider that stealing. Seeing as they do not provide loans and just spam you, I would consider that stealing.
Wow spammers are so fucking retarded. Im asking if I can take a spammer to court and I get a bunch of spam replies offering me loans. I hate the internet.

I received a post card in the mail regarding the class action suit against Advance America for Pennsylvania residents who took a payday loan from them and were charged exorbitant rates. I lost the postcard and can’t find any information about this suit, only the one in Georgia. Anyone know where I can go?

I’m trying to find someway to come up with extra money to get my kids something for Christmas. And so far the only option I have is to borrow it against my tax check coming in January. I hate to do it that way, but it is the only option. I want to borrow no more than $500.00 and pay it back in full when I get my taxes back. Are there any loan companies, (banks, payday loans, ANYTHING!!) that offers loans like this! Any information you have to offer would be greatly appreciated! Thanks so much!!

In the course of a busy day, you may write a check at the grocery store, charge tickets to a ball game, rent a car, mail your tax returns, change service providers for your cell phone, or apply for a credit card. Chances are you don’t give these everyday transactions a second thought. But an identity thief does. Identity theft is a serious crime. People whose identities have been stolen can spend months or years and thousands of dollars cleaning up the mess the thieves have made of a good name and credit record. In the meantime, victims of identity theft may lose job opportunities, be refused loans for education, housing, or cars, and even get arrested for crimes they didn’t commit. Humiliation, anger, and frustration are among the feelings victims experience as they navigate the process of rescuing their identity. Working with other government agencies and organizations, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has produced this booklet to help you remedy the effects of an identity theft. It describes what steps to take, your legal rights, how to handle specific problems you may encounter on the way to clearing your name, and what to watch for in the future.
