Mike Lindell says 'cash-strapped' MyPillow took $1.6 million loan from payday lender at 409% interest
Mike Lindell says 'cash-strapped' MyPillow took $1.6 million loan from payday lender at 409% interest (Insider)• MyPillow and Mike Lindell claim in a lawsuit that they were deceived by a corporate payday lender.
• The lawsuit says "cash-strapped" MyPillow borrowed $1.6 million at a "usurious" interest rate.
• Lindell has said he's broke. At least three MyPillow loans have ended up in court, records show.
MyPillow owner Mike Lindell said his company was duped into borrowing $1.6 million at a 409% annual interest rate, the latest sign of financial distress for the far-right pillow salesman.
Lindell, MyPillow, and 18 other corporate entities claim Cobalt Funding Solutions and another company involved in the loan, Streamline Advance, engaged in racketeering by extending a high-interest merchant cash advance — essentially a payday loan for businesses.
Cobalt, Streamline, and two men named as defendants "took advantage" of MyPillow, "a cash-strapped business that needed funds quickly," the lawsuit said. The lawsuit claims that the September agreement to borrow nearly $1.6 million was stacked against MyPillow and risked ruining the company.
