I THINK WONGA HAS ****MED US!!

I think iv been ****med by woonga finance. Took out a loan. Was approved. They asked for R3000 upfront. Then another R2 500 saying for insurance against the loan. He paid. Sent us credit card from cape Town requested another R8500 to active card, by now we broke with no money to pay, pleaded with then they requested another R1000 to active card and he did, still nothing, then received a call for another R500. We grew suspicious by this time as they continued demanding more money for activation. We asked for cancelation, and called the bank to reverse our money. Bank then advised that the money was transfered into a private account of an ex employee who we then contacted. Lady advised she knows nothing. R6500 LATER, NO LOAN, MONEY GONE... PLEASE ADVISE ***.

Hi Maureen,

We apologize for any inconvenience caused.

We can confirm that this is a ****.

We recently became aware that a syndicate is using our logo and company details 

to operate a cash advance ****. 

We have opened a police case in this regard. 

We can understand how frustrated you must feel if you have paid money over to these *********,

we are also angry that our good name is being used as part of this **** which aims to cheat consumers out of their money.

Unfortunately at the moment, ********** are even more active than normal in trying to **** people,

so we would urge you to be even more vigilant about keeping your cash and personal information safe.

Thank you for your patience.

The Wonga Team.
