Over 60% per annum is considered loan sharking. Can this 60% - 100% APR lender legally break body parts if you don't repay? I'd ask how this obvious scam is legal to be on TV, but there are also commercials on Reverse Financing and Kinoki anti-toxic foot pads...

There is no usury law in the State of Arizona.
We have some Check Cashing / Payday loan companies charging upwards to 800% - Yes, I said, 800%!
