Got a text message tonight (05/26/2011) at 11:30 pm to advise me I was one step away from receiving my cash...I never requested any cash...the text message told me to go to their web site - www. help80.com. Grrrrrrrrr. On May 23, 2011, I receive a call from 422- 490-2535 and when I answered a man with an East Indian accent asked me if I had just applied for a payday loan. When I said "NO" - he hung up. But that same afternoon I received another call from 322-549-0820. I didn't answer that call. Instead I went on the Internet and googled the numbers. Lots of people are receiving these calls. The numbers are listed overseas...so I don't know if it is one big scam - or more than one since the text I got tonight came from Houston (Sugarland) Texas. I will probably have to change my phone number because I don't want to get these texts and calls all hours of the night. I have filed a report with the South Dakota Attorney General's office - Consumer Affairs...I will probably contact the Public Utilities Commission as well. This is ridiculous!!!
