I was contacted through both email and voicemail that i was approved of a loan. I called the number back ( 779-400-0935)
I spoke with a gentleman named Malcolm. after getting the process started he handed me down to his boss who is the loan processing manager names, Sean sheldon Elwin (already sounds sketchy given he had an indian accent, but went with it anyways) He deposited 940 into my account just for me to go to a 24 hour walmart to purchase itunes cards so that i can tranfer the money back.
I asked why and was not given a real answer, just said whatever he said and rushed me off of the phone. I did as he asked and sent the codes to him via text- (779-400-0961) this was his main communication with me, text and calls.
I asked if there was anything else needed to be done in order to obtain my loan. He said no and that my funds will be depostied within the next few hours, well the next few hours went by and all the of the sudden i had to do that same process yet again the next morning.
he deposited 1953 into my account and again i went and got the itunes cards and sent the codes. Apparently this was for insurance incase i lose my job and am unable to make a payment. again i know this sounds sketchy and i am in a bind which is why i was applying for a loan so i still kept on with it.
After getting what was needed he said that my funds would be depostied by 11 am, when he told me that it was almost 8 am. so it should have been deposited by then. I was at work so i couldnt see it, but i checked around 230 and there was nothing. I got ahold of him and ignored my attempts on communicating, then finally responded
He said that i dont need to worry and that it will be deposited. I have not seen a deposit nor have i heard anything from this person. I did not look up G E Money Inc until just before this email, I was scammed and i do not know what the legal step is from here to protect my account, my identtity, everthing.
I have the cards and reciepts- he told me to throw them away and im glad i did not. I have email and text as well as pictures of the card codes i sent him.

Scam

Yes this is a scam, and I am sorry to give you the bad news but it will probably get a lot worse for you.
The money that they "transferred" was done through fraudulent means. Meaning that eventually your bank will reverse out those deposits. If you don't have the $2893 in your account they will take every dime you have and then put you into collections for the remaining amount. If you fail to pay the bank back it could lead to you being sued in civil court. As a worst case(but not likely) you could find yourself being criminally charged for fraud because the funds were fraudulent and "common sense" should have told you something was up. This really depends on your bank and how far they want to take it.
If you think you can just go after the people who transferred the money. You can keep anything you want, but the problem is that everything they gave right down to their name is FAKE. The phone number(s) they contacted you from are either pre-paid cell phones or IP phones paid for with stolen credit cards. Any e-mail address or web site they gave you was also either a free website anyone can get or again paid for with stolen information. Also, as you suspected they are not in the US making any sort of investigation to track them down next to impossible.
What all this means is that since you are the one who received the funds and you are the one who withdrew the funds you are the one who is responsible for paying back the bank...Sorry.
While it's a bit too late now...ANYTIME someone you do not personally know send you money and then requests you to send them any sort of Gift Card, Money Gram, Money Order back you can guarantee it is a scam. It doesn't matter what the reason...it is a scam. If you get a call that says you owe a bill and they are requesting immediate payment by the same said methods again it is a scam, and you need to contact the company at a number you have to verify.
