My friend decided to help me by paying the first 3 payments. My friend even came over to read the e-mail that Royal Financial sent me, and he thought it was legitimate. So my friend went to Western Union and wired money to Florida. First time he wired $484.02 and then a few hours later, he sent another 284.02.
I waited for the loan to be transferred to my account, and it never came. Jessica Meyers (scam coworker) stated the money would be in my bank account shortly. I waited a few hours and no money still. So I called up to Royal Financial and spoke to Daniel (scam manager), and he stated he would see why the money hadn't been deposited into my account yet. Daniel asked me to call him back in 15 minutes. From there on for a few hours or so, I tried calling Daniel back and he didn't answer.
I decided that I'm going to keep calling. Daniel finally answered the phone and tried getting insurance money out of me. I told him no, that I was informed by Jessica Meyers that I didn't have to pay anything else. Daniel proceeded to tell me that I did. After all this, I told Daniel that I wanted my money back that I didn't want the loan. Daniel stated he would send the money back, but it would take 25-30 before I got my money back. I told Daniel that was fine.
Now I'm waiting to see if I get the money back.

This is a well known scam called the "Advance Fee Loan Scam". The tipoff is that it would actually be illegal for a legitimate lender to require advance payments in order to secure a loan. The other tipoff is that they require payment using an untraceable cash method (Western Union is most popular with scammers). Legitimate businesses do not require untraceable cash transfers.
In a week or two, the phone numbers that they are using will likely go dead, then they'll start all over again using a different company name.
Blindly applying for loans on the Internet is generally a bad idea. You really have no idea who is getting your personal information and what they will do with it.
