A Frank Wilson called and left me a message saying to call him back at 214-716-7821 I called him back and no one answered about 5 minutes later he called me back and asked for my social security number and bank number and I hung up. I have received 3 calls from the same person and numbers so I am reporting it. And have reported it to the FBI also for cyber crimes.

This is what I gave to the Real Lending Club company below. My story:

This is the letter that I sent to the real Lending Club Company I found which was the corp. office in San Francisco. I called them after I spent the $1050.00 to the fraudulent company. They're also investigating them at their end. When I called the real lending company, they said they don't work this way at all. I sent the below info. to the real Lending Club co. at [email protected]

When I spoke to the real Lending Club company they said they don't do government loans and they don't charge fees in advance or use appleplay or ebay cards for payments that these people asked me to do. Also, they don't have offices in Florida. Attached is the document that this fraudulent Lending Club company in Florida gave me. I found out you don’t have an office in Florida.

They scammed $1050.00 from me yesterday. They said they will send the money western union, but I have to pay Florida state tax fee, then insurance fees if I default and then transfer fees. I said it’s illegal to take fees in advance of a loan. They said they’ll give me $2000.00 back. Then today they wanted another $300.00 because they had to change the western union date. They’re fake office they said was at 1756 N. Bayshore Drive, Miami, FL 33132. The phone number they contacted me on was 1-850-204-1410.

The guys representing your company are Ron Adams and Financial Dept guy Albert Franklin. They said the loan of $5000.00 was coming western union from James Miller. They had me go get google play cards and ebay cards because that’s how their company pays activation, insurance and certificate fees. I know all lies, because they kept asking for more and more money and making more excuses. I saw the main co. on the internet and they said yes their corp. office is in San Francisco and they have 200 offices. But when I called your office today they said there’s none in Miami, FL.

I’m a victim of a big scam that’s going on using your company name. They’re ruining your company name. No one will trust it. You’ll get nasty complaints when your offices never really did it. They also said things are done differently because it’s a government loan. When your main office said it’s a private company. I should have called you guys yesterday but I thought I only had to pay a little which I still was disturbed about. They wanted my bank info, SS# etc. I changed my passwords to my bank.

I spoke to Shenella (sp) from your Jamaica office and she was nice enough to give me your email to report this. Please investigate and shut them down. They will probably move away by Monday, because I told them I contacted you and your office said they were a scam. I lost my whole social security check – my living expenses for the month because of them. Please shut them down.

You have the power with the FBI and agencies and you have the money to go after them. Have your own private investigators find a way to shut them down. I’ll report to FBI internet crime site too, but you guys need to stop this. It’s hurting innocent people.

I received a phone call from this Kevin guy he said he was from the Lending Club and I was approved for the loan I needed. Kevin told me since my credit score was to low I would need to show a sign of good faith, and he explained to me that he was going to deposit an amount of money by check thru mobile banking and I was to send it back to Kevin by purchasing 2 giftcards at WalMart first and put money on each of them which was 500.00 and then 475.00 on the second card which I did what he asked me to.

I then called Kevin Gave him the information he needed from the cards he then told me that the loan papers would be sent to my email account and the monies would be there in 45 minutes. Today I received a call from my bank to find out that I am a NEGATIVE 1,045.40 in my checking account. The check that Kevin had deposited and had med take the money out of my account and sent to him had bounced now I need to come up with all that money to make my account positive again. I have tried to call Kevin's number but it is NO LONGER IN SERVICE.

I received a preapproval letter for a personal loan from $10,000 to $40,000 from Lending Club in the mail. They gave me a code to submit on their website. I went on their website and entered my code. Immediately they wanted my bank account number so that they could link my account to theirs. They also, gave me a loan number and how much I would pay each month for the loan of $20,000 that I was asking for. I thought that I was approved and that they were going to wire the money to my account.

I had a applied for personal loan through a different company once and they linked my account, approved me and wired me my money within a day or two. So, when Lending Club did the exact same thing, I thought I was approved and the money would be wired to my account. A few hours later, I received an email from Lending Club that I needed to fill out the loan application and submit documents. I thought this was strange since they already linked my account and gave me my loan information. I filled out the application and uploaded all the required documents. They sent me an email 2 days later, that the copies of my paychecks and the copies of my co-borrowers paychecks needed to be resubmitted.

I resubmitted them. Then, the same email. I called a rep. who told me that I needed paystubs. I told her that my boss wrote all deductions on the paychecks, she did not use pay stubs. I am a new hire, so I only had 2 checks. My co-borrower works for the same company so, her checks are the same. The next rep. told me to submit 2-3 months of bank statements, which I did. Both reps. were supposed to have the loan officer contact me and help me. Never heard from loan officer. Third rep. was no help. Fourth rep., did not know how to help me. I asked him why I have not heard from loan officer. He said that none of the reps. had requested the loan officer to call me.

They lied and told me that they would have loan officer call. This went on for 2 weeks, with no help from anyone at Lending Club. I have never had any problems getting a loan in the past. I never even had to submit any documentation. I believe that this company is misleading people with these preapproval letters and codes, any taking peoples bank information before they are even approved. They want easy loans to approve. If, any complications they do not want to bother. If, they do not want to do the work and help people get loans, then STOP sending these letters. They are asking people for personal information and who knows what they do with taht info. and how do you know if, you can trust them to not take money from your bank account since, they have all that info as well.

I went online to check them out and I had a bad feeling about them, guy calls me back this morning saying he was sorry for not returning my phone call or email, he didn't know I had my bank red flag them, this clown gives me his pitch about getting my credit scores up and then I can get the larger loan, he paid me no attention when I told him I know how to get my scores up, he keeps talking and said what we can do is send a smaller amount to one our banks you send it back to us the same day and we can get your scores up within a few hours, now remember I said I know how to get my scores up and yes you can do it within a few days but not hours, that was when I said hold up "YOU WANT ME TO ALLOW YOU TO SEND A SMALL AMOUNT NOT TO MY BANK BUT A BANK YOU WANT TO USE CORRECT? HE SAID YES that is when I didn't say a word I just hungup in his face and kept it moving, there are reasons who find people like this being brought to light for the whole world to see that way people who may not be good with computers to know that look them up, don't wait until bad things happen to you and they will if you don't check people out before get involved with them, I didn't even bother to tell the clown I had my bank red flag them yesterday so look them up or if you problems never be afraid to ask for help because it really is better to be SAFE than SORRY.

Received in the mail a notice from this company that touted that I was "pre-approved" for a personal loan. On the first page of the notice it went into detail as to why I was pre-approved. It gave an email address and a pre-approval code for me to utilize when at the site. I followed all of the instructions and received a notice that I was denied but I could try another lender which they conveniently supplied a link for. Aside from falsely advertising that I was "pre-approved" they pulled a bait and switch by sending me to an affiliate lender. This form of advertising is no better then what car dealers have been sited for over and over. They wasted my valuable time by falsely telling me that I was "pre-approved."

I completed an application online. Unbeknownst to me when completing the application process, I was required to sign all the truth in lending documents prior to the loan approval. When I got to the loan finance changes and APR after completing the loan, I decided the rate was too high. The application was approved and the funds placed in my bank account on 5/16. I received no e-mails (e-mails went to junk file, congratulating me on the loan) and no phone calls about the loan and the funds being placed in my account. Upon notice of this fact, I called after going to Wells Fargo Bank, whom the bank showed the funds came from. Wells Fargo traced the funds to Web Bank who traced the funds to Lending Club. When speaking with lending club, they informed the 3 day cancellation was off; but they never made direct contact.

The problem with this process is: 1. When filing for the loan prior to know the % rate, all documents were considered signed with the application process. 2. contact for the loan was not confirmed by myself, as the e-mails sent were not responded to as I did not receive them; even though they informed to contact them. 3. The funds remained intact in my account as again I was unaware they had been transfered and from whom.

The loan amount was $14,000. The amount deposited in my bank was $13,300.00 The origination fee was $700 and the taxes on the loan was 68.78. Therefore the payout on the loan was 14,768.78, which I will pay on 5/31/18.

Do not use this company.

10-16 17 Lending Club contacted me by e mail about a $5000 looan. Alex rogers told me I didn't have enough money in my account so he deposited a check into my account for $990. He said take the money out as soon as you get it. and send it back to him in itunes cards and stem cards, and the money would be in my account 10-21-17. 10-23-17 the money wasn't there. My bank account was overdrawn by $992. I went to my bank they said the check Alex deposited in my account was unable to locate. I have the texting conversation with Alex on my phone.i have copies of the itunes and stem cards that I sent over the phone. I am out of $990 from the bank and from the lending Club.
