Igot one of these messages at 2am from MONEY600.com. But a different Phone number the number they called from was 214-226-9036.I am thinking that this is either a number change due to volume of complaints or a work from home scam x

There seems to be dozens of these MONEY70, PAY600, GIFT50 etc web sites sending spam SMS messages. They all seem to link to doublemypayday.com. Domain owner is:
NetTangerine Inc.
2225 E. Bayshore Road
Suite 200
Palo Alto, CA 94043-3220
Tel: (650)641-0184
Fax: (866)723-2155
contactus@nettangerine.net
I called them up and spoke with a person called Amy. She admitted that her company owns the web site doublemypayday.com. She stated that they do not directly send SMS messages from her company, it must be some affiliate of theirs that is doing non-compliant things. She did not want to admit a direct responsibility for the text message we all receive, but my argument was that they should be controlling their affiliates. She admitted that this is not something they want happening either as it damages their brand image.
She promised to investigate who is doing this, and NetTangerine would shut them down.
I promised to Amy that I will post this information on every complaint site I can get my hands on.
I suggest everybody gives a call to NetTangerine Inc Tel: (650)641-0184 and complains about the SMS messages. I'm sure the more calls they receive, the more motivated they are in finding out and shutting down which ever affiliate of theirs is doing this.

| JW 2011-01-25 02:16:27 SMS |
When you visit the site there is no contact info whatsoever. They just want your email address and give you the opportunity to apply for a loan. Certainly a spamming, very obnoxious company waking me up at midnight. Not sure what the objective is to that.

I was attempting to sleep after having my shoulder operated on earlier in the day when I receive a text message at 12:45 am telling me how I have a $5000 loan waiting for me. This was the first of 9 that I received over the next 12 hours. Each from a different number. I have replied with STOP to each number but they keep sending me spam. When attempting to call the number back, I am unable to leave a message because the inbox is full.
| Pamela 2010-11-10 12:27:23 Unknown |
I received a text message from 347-925-6719 saying i could get a loan for up to $5000.00. When I
called the number back I get a recording saying please leave a message for this number but then
the message box is full. Unable to tell them to stop sending me text messages.

IAM UPSET THAT IAM GETTING SO MANY TEXT MESSAGE FROM ALL PAYDAY LOAN ON INTERNET.
| lamet 2010-08-31 14:57:18 Unknown |
Many of these PAYDAY LOAN Spam texts are targeted to those in 16 States that have banned them. They are illegally approving loans in states they cannot do business in, are not located in the US and many are SCAM sites.
If you live in one of these states - IT IS ILLEGAL for a PAYDAY loan company to market or approve loans.
High cost payday loans are illegal in 15 states. As of the end of 2008, the following states outlaw these very expensive loans:
Arkansas
Connecticut
Georgia
Maine
Maryland
Massachusetts
New Hampshire
New Jersey
New York
North Carolina
Ohio
Oregon
Pennsylvania
Vermont
West Virginia
Payday loans are also illegal in the District of Columbia, the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico. In addition, Congress banned payday lending to service members and their families.
Arizona was added to this list of July 1, 2010

West Virginia Sues Eight Payday Lenders
Firms charged with using Internet to circumvent state law
August 24, 2010
West Virginia is one of a handful of states that have banned payday loans. So when lenders use the Internet to do business with residents of that state, the state's attorney general goes to court.
West Virginia Attorney Darrell McGraw has filed suit, asking the Court to order the eight companies, which have refused to cooperate with his investigation, to surrender the records of their West Virginia-based accounts and to halt lending activities in the state.
Payday loans are high-interest loans or cash advances with interest rates that reach as high as 600-to-800 percent APR. The loans, typically made for 14 days, are secured by a post-dated check or an agreement authorizing electronic debits from the consumer's checking account.
"When a company sets foot in West Virginia, whether in person or over the Internet, my office has a duty to ensure the enterprise complies with state law," McGraw said. "Any company that makes payday loans must halt its usurious business and produce records identifying its victims."
The companies and principals sued by Attorney General McGraw's office are:
? Payday Loan Resource Center LLC and Moe Tassoudi of Scottsdale, AZ;
? DirectROI d/b/a Cash West Payday Loans and Mike Brewster of Chandler, AZ;
? First American Credit;
? LoanPointe LLC, Joe E. Strom, Benjamin J. Lonsdale, James C. Endicott and Mark S. Lofgren of Highland, UT;
? Eastbrook LLC d/b/a Ecash and GeteCash of Provo, UT;
? National Title Loans d/b/a National Cash 12 of Elsmere, DE;
? Payday Financial LLC d/b/a www.LakotaCash.com and Martin Webb of Timber Lake, SD;
? Payday Loans-ACH d/b/a www.ACHLoans.com of Emeryville, CA.
End run
McGraw says Payday Loan Resource Center attempts to circumvent state law by charging West Virginia customers a monthly fee to help them obtain Internet payday loans. A suit filed earlier this year by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) charged Ecash and GeteCash with attempting to garnish wages without a court order. Lakota Cash claims to be an Indian tribe and therefore not subject to the laws of any state.
Since McGraw began investigating the industry in 2005, his office has reached settlements with 107 Internet payday lenders and their collection agencies, resulting in $2,452,979.87 in refunds and canceled debts for 8044 West Virginians.
"Payday loans are predatory traps for the many West Virginians facing difficult times," McGraw said. "We will continue to ask the courts to intervene whenever companies refuse to cooperate with our efforts to protect West Virginia citizens."
