I contacted the attorney general and gave Mindy Lobo name and incometaxadvances.com

I lost $35 to my checking account from someone that scammed me promising me a loan if I put up this money. After they got my checking account number they charged it and never heard from them again. I called incometaxadvance.com and etax loan after the attorney general said AtoZ financial is under investigation. They claim they only pass on information but they are selling your personal info. to scammers knowlingly and splitting the profits. BEWARE FRAUD COMPLETE SCAM DO NOT GIVE YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER OR CHECKING ACCOUNT NUMBER TO THESE PEOPLE THEY ARE GOING TO BE PROSECUTED SOON>

IF YOU HAVE BEEN SCAMMED BY THIS COMPANY CONTACT THE ATTORNEY GENERAL IN YOUR STATE AND IN THE STATE OF Deleware. THE COMPANY HAS NO REAL ADDRESS. FALSE ADDRESS AND SCAM.

 

Remember the company that was busted by NPR for scamming people on the internet under bogus income tax loans ......they are back at it again. Now instead of using etaxloan.com they have created another fraud company with the internet name incometaxes.com  Here was the original story by NPR:

 

In the course of reporting a story earlier this year, I logged on to a site calledeTaxLoan.com and filled out an application.

I asked for $500 and, to be safe, I made up an address, a name (Mary) and a Social Security number. The site asked for more sensitive stuff — a bank account number and a routing number — and I made that up, too.

In spite of the made-up information, in less than a minute, I got a response.

"Congratulations. Tremont Lending has been selected as your lender and you have been pre-approved for a loan up to $750."

If I wanted to borrow $750 for a week, I would have had to pay $225 in interest. The site said that was an annual percentage rate of more than 1,300 percent.

I did not agree to take the loan.

But within minutes, my phone rang (I had entered my real phone number). It was a guy from Tremont Lending, in South Dakota. I told him I was a reporter, that I didn't really want a loan, and I figured that would be the end of it. But then, I started to get more calls.

"Hi, Mary. My name is Ethan, Ethan Foster, and I'm calling from InstaLoan. And this call is regarding the loan application which you put online. It has been successfully approved by our company as a personal loan."

And:

"This message is intended for Mary Kettler. Mary, the very second you receive this message, I need your urgent attention to return the call. My name is Tom Watson."

For months, I got dozens of calls. Many of the callers had strong foreign accents. One caller, who said his name was Kevin, told me that Mary had been approved for a loan of up to $5,000 — 10 times what I initially asked for.

Kevin said he was from a company called Cash 4 You, which was unconnected to eTaxLoan.com. By this point, I was wholly confused. ETaxLoan had said it was a secure site, but now, many different companies had my application — and, presumably, my personal information.

It turns out there's a huge online bidding process for such loans. ETaxLoan isn't a lender at all, but something called a lead generator. It finds potential customers, then passes them on. The information is next used by a bunch of thieves online.

IncomeTaxAdvances.com Doe's not sell info or deduct funds from customer accounts

AUTHOR: AtoZ Financials, LLC - ()

POSTED: Monday, August 11, 2014

The report is unsigned and for good reason: It must be a report filed by a competetor. 

 

AtoZ Financials does have several websites offering many different types of loans and in the three years we have been in business this is only the second report filed against us and this second one is as false as the first one last year. We determined that the last report was indeed filed by a competetor.

 

Falsity 1:

AtoZ Financials is not under any type of investigation by any state attorney general as we operate a completely ligitimate business.

 

Falsity 2: 

AtoZ Financials did not take $35 from this person or any other person that has ever applied for a loan on any of our websites.

 

Truth 1:

AtoZ Finanancial, IncomeTaxAdvances.com in particular has helped over 50,000 people obtain loans and not a single one ever had money taken from their account except to repay a loan along with the agreed upon fees.

 

Truth 2:

eTaxLoan.com was part of an NPR story that identified a previously unknow situation whereby one of our trusted lenders was selling information. That lender was identified and consequently dropped from our system and is now near to going out of business.

 

Truth 3:

As far as IncomeTaxAdvances being "at it again" is providing quality loans and we have been at it now for over three years.

 

I hope you have read our rebuttle and do not put any faith in this one original report.

 

Thank you,

 

Mindy Lobo
