  Liberty Capital Services aka Liberty Loans is the victim of identity theft.

  Numerous offers have gone out to consumers across the United States under the name Liberty Loans USA. Consumers are advised not to pay money upfront for a loan. In the vast majority of cases, the scammers demand that consumers take out insurance coverage on the loans by loading cash onto Vanilla Reload or Green Dot Money Pak cards and then forward the thieves the access codes. Usually, the thieves initially demand between $600 and $3,000 to secure the loan. After receiving the first payment, scammers typically demand additional payments until victims run out of money or caught onto the scam. Such Vanilla Reload and Green Dot transactions are extremely difficult to trace. Other phony loan companies have used Western Union or MoneyGram to obtain the payments. The scammers make use of authentic-looking loan documents and elaborate, temporary websites to convince consumers of their legitimacy. It is illegal for any company making loans by phone to take up-front fees. Historically, the phony loan businesses change the names of their businesses every two to three weeks in attempts to keep a step ahead of law enforcement officials, consumer groups like BBB and consumers. But if they can use the name of a real company, they are happy to use it longer as consumers are confused, thinking they are dealing with a real company, as in this case. At any given time, dozens of advance fee loan scams may be operating across the country.
