I, personally have a loan through Springleaf and I have never had any issues with them, nor did they charge $500 for fees and services. When I took out my loan, it was $1208. $200 of it went to pay for disability and unemployment insurance and I received a check for $1000 that I walked out of their office with same day. They never once asked me to wire money and it was mandatory that I went into a brick and mortar building and show my documents. (paystubs, checking account statement, and proof of residency) I do believe that a scam artist got ahold of you and did this. I also have not heard or seen American Financial associated with Springleaf, but I am in Illinois, and it could be an affiliate.
