Hi !  Sound's to me like this 'Amy' that you all talk about isn't even a 'real person'  sounds to me like she may be some kind of automatic response machine.  I live in Las Vegas Nevada, and I got a Title Loan from 'Rapid Cash' and as soon as I missed a payment this automated girl named 'Hedi' kept calling to inform me of my account.  Needless to say she wasn't even real.  I have already paid them $800.00, they still want another $1,200.00 at least before they will give me my title. If I ever get my Title for my vehicle back I will have paid  $2,000.00 or possibly more.  For a $1,000.00 loan that I got.  That is an intrest rate of 100%!  RAPID CASH is a RIPPOFF no mater how you pay it!

No message left.

She did the exact same thing to me.

Hi, Tina.  Welcome to our club. We've all been scammed by this company.  Please make sure you file a BBB complaint, FTC complaint, and the Internet Crime Complaint Center.  Also, call Green Dot and make sure you file a complaint with them as well. Also, file a complaint with the Oregon Attorney General and Oregon Finance Division.  Good luck.

I have gotten ahold of our local law enforcement wich deal with internet crimes. I may never get my money back but  i hope that i can help someone else from being taken from this lady.

Portland???? She told me she was from san frasico! But yet she called me at 9am my time that would have been 6am in california!! Can u please let me know who you reported this crime to. Im in West Virginia and and dont know if i can report it here or get on the bandwagon and get this fraud!!!

I to was ripped off by this company. She no longer goes by Amy its Amanda now. They told me i did not have the right account # even though when i talked to her on the phone we went over the account number and routng number. She called me and told me if i would summit another $125.00 she could get me 1800.00. Told her i could not afford this so she then knocked it down to 75.00 when i explained i could not do this either she then knocked it down another 25.00 for a total of 50.00. That was yesterday and now all of a sudden today when i try  to email her the website is no longer available. Imagine that. I agree this women prays on people in despert situations and she needs to sit in a cell with big bertha and think of how she has changed peoples lives. 125.00 may not seem like alot but to me that was all i had at the time.

I demanded a refund from Amy.. haha like she's going to give me one.. she said it had to be in writing and notarized.  Would not give me an address to send it to.  I can't wait until the feds bust her.  Because the crime was committed over state lines and via the internet, the feds are involved.  They know who she is already.  Bye Amy... hope you drop the soap in prison!

Amy reads these posts so let her have it!  She is so delusional that she really does not see herself as the liar/thief that she is.  She actually thinks that she is helping people.   This woman needs 24/7 therapy!

Green Dot will not refund my $250 because there is no money on the debit cards Amy used to move our money to.  Green Dot said they have blocked all of her cards and she will no longer be able to buy a Green Dot card from them.  They said her name is NOT Amy and the company is NOT the company info she gave all of us.  They suggested I file a police report, get a Subpoena and they will furnish me ALL the information I need to go after Amy the Thief.  I suggest everyone file a police report and we all can go after her and my Sheriffs office will be reporting her to the police department where she really lives.  You are going down Amy.

Green Dot will NOT give me my money back because they told me it was my problem that I gave the money to her. How did you get refunded? I talked to the corporate office also and was told the same thing about me not being able to be refunded. I think they are a bunch of scam artists as well.

I was also scammed by Amy or whatever her name is. I have called Green Dot and they are just as bad to handle the situation. They will NOT give you a refund and they could careless who you are. I am disgusted with them as well. I am going to call the BBB on both companies. I was told by Green Dot that I would receive a refund and now they tell me it is my fault. I believe each company is a scam. I will not stop until I have a piece of mind from both places!

By the way, this company "rapidcashadvanceusa" has a Better Business Bureau rating of "F".  The lowest possible rating that they give out.

I too will stop at nothing to see that this woman is STOPPED!   At this point, I know that I will never get the loan.  It has been 4 weeks today.   I am going to request a refund and if that does not come I will press criminal charges against Amy for theft.   Based on the posts that I have read, it sounds like she frequently tells people that they gave her the wrong account number so that she can scam people out of an additional $125.  Then she had the nerve to tell me that I would only get one of the $125 fees back because the first time it was my fault that the loan didn't go through (wrong account number).  This woman has no conscience, no morals and no scruples at all.  She is a liar, a con artist and a thief.  A common criminal, plain and simple.  SHE MUST BE STOPPED.  I have filed several formal complaints and I am thrilled to know that we can go through Green Dot Card as well.  I will be doing that immediately.  They need to know that this woman is using their company to steal from people.  This is a form of money laundering which is a very serious offense.  I am sure that they will not want to be associated with this type of criminal activity.  The authorities can track her down using the 800 number and by tracing the money with the help of Green Dot Money Card services.  We all need to continue to pursue this vigorously!   Otherwise, this woman will continue to scam other people as well.   We cannot let her get away with this.

You need your green dot card that you bought, your reciept and confirmation number. The numbers on the back of ur card. Also, if you don't have it, just call them anyway. They have had a lot complaints about this scam artist. Its nice to know this green dot is standing by us. Learned our lesson, never trust people off the internet. Now were scared bc she has all of my fiances info. Good luck

Mallory? Green Dot refunded your money? Thank you for posting that. That's what I'll do next. I filed complaints with every government official I could fine.  I'm filing a police report in Portland.  She'll go to jail for this.

PS.. where did you get the number for green dot?

Same thing as you guys. Call green dot. They refunded my fiances fee of 125. A lot of ppl are complaining. The green dot company has her account info as to where the money is going and my fiance is asking green dot to press charges. I think they are. Amy and donna are the same ppl. Google the locations they have as contacts on there page its empty or not rapid cash advance. Thank god my father and sister in law loaned me money or id be evicted. She will get what's coming to her. Oh btw the liar who posted on nov 4th is "amy" its funny how she posts that when my fiance called her to tell her to look at this page, same time and everything. She will go. To prision. Hope everything workjs out for everyone else

I guess I'm in the same boat.  Amy promised me a loan of 1200 for a 125.00 red dot card processing fee.  I was leery, but I trusted her. BIG MISTAKE.  I never received my money and now she has me blocked from calling her.  How do we get our money back?

Prove it. they ripped me off along with all these other people.  I think you're lying.

This was a great company for me!!! I got my loan

OMG they did the same thing!! They blocked MY cell phone number and I got the same message as you, then I tried using another of my cell phones and it went straight through to rapid advance.  Now Amy is telling me if I want a refund, I need to send a request and have it notarized??? Yet, she never responded to my emails asking for the refund.

SCAMMERS - !!!!!!!!!!! do NOT pay them a DIME

Rapid Cash Advance is a RIP OFF.  I paid them 125.00 thinking that I was approved for a 1200.00 loan.  That would've saved me and I knew that it was shady but I was hoping that it wasn't.

Yeah...now what they do is they've blocked calling from my area code.  I try calling from my cell and it says "The number you dialed can not be reached from your calling area.  Good bye."  I tried calling from a friend's phone and it says "Thank you for calling Rapid Cash Advance."

I don't care if I am broke for the rest of my life I will stop at nothing to get that B**CH AMY back for stealing money from people who are desperate.

What they did was illegal and fraud.  You and I both know we're not getting any money and those other posters aren't being truthful. They are plants, probably Amy and her partner thief.  I think I'm going to stop checking my bank every morning hoping it some how made it in. I sent them an email asking for a refund twice, and of course, they did not answer my emails.

How can they sleep at night knowing they stole from people that were already on hard times! Not only being morally wrong, they then broke the laws on so many levels - banking fraud, wire fraud, noncompliance with the FTC's rules and regs and US laws on lending practices.

Hey Amy.. karma - one day you'll get yours, you conscienceless pos.

I have a feeling that Tiffany and Marissa are both the woman that calls herself Amy.  Who knows what her name really is.

My situation EXACTLY!!  She told me that mine would be raised to $1800 as well.  15 days later and still nothing.  I too am out $250 that I could not afford to lose.  This woman is a scam artist and the sooner she gets caught the better.  I have already filed a formal complaint with the FTC.

Susie, it's been over 2 weeks that I paid the 2nd processing fee. I too was told I gave them incorrect account number and that's why I didn't get it the first time. I was skeptical, but Amy said she'd raise the loan to 1800 to help offset the processing fee. The last time I did actual screen shots of what I submitted on the app.  Now, I have no money, I'm down 250 bucks, and I can't get a hold of anyone there either via email or phone.  They are ignoring my emails.  I highly doubt anyone received money from them at this point.

My next step is notifying the FTC and also file a criminal complaint in Portland regarding the fraudulent activity of this business.

Report to the Internet Crime Complaint Center http://www.ic3.gov/complaint/default.aspx , the Federal Communications Commission http://esupport.fcc.gov/complaints.htm , the Federal Trade Commission https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/ and your state AG.

THIS IS A SCAM. TIFFIANY IS A SHILL. Demanding up-front fees in advance to actually receiving the loan is *ILLEGAL* as described in this FTC's warning http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/edu/pubs/consumer/telemarketing/tel16.shtm which states: "It is illegal for companies doing business in the U.S. by phone to promise you a loan and ask you to pay for it before they deliver." A fee is legal if you pay it *after* you get the loan. If you agree to a $125 fee for a $1,500 loan (not that I agree with or is recommending it), what should happen is the lender should take $125 out of the $1,500 and send you $1,375 but you should *never* have to pay the $125 up front before you get the loan. THIS IS A SCAM.

How long did it take you to get your money?  I have been waiting more than 2 weeks.
