Borrowing from a Loan App? This 1-Min Test Could Save You from a Scam

Vizzve Admin

🧠 Introduction:

With just a few taps, money hits your bank account. Sounds magical, right?

India’s digital lending boom has made borrowing easier than ever — but also more dangerous.

Not all loan apps are legit. Some are unregulated, predatory, and even criminal.

So how do you tell the difference between a real NBFC and a digital loan shark in disguise?

📱 1. The Rise of Digital Loan Apps in India

India saw more than 1,100 lending apps emerge by 2024, but over 600 were flagged as illegal or non-RBI compliant.

Why people fall for them:

Easy approval

No documents

24/7 availability

No credit checks

But what starts as “quick cash” often leads to:

🔴 Harassment, blackmail, mental health trauma, and massive debt cycles

⚠️ 2. How to Spot a Fake or Predatory Loan App

Red FlagWhat It Means
No RBI/NBFC license mentionedLikely illegal
Demands full access to contacts/photosUsed to threaten & harass
Approval in seconds without KYCUnsecured + risky
Massive hidden chargesLoan shark practices
Pressure to repay in 3–7 daysNot a valid loan term

✅ 3. How to Verify a Legit Loan App

✔️ Check the RBI list of registered NBFCs/MFI
✔️ Look for transparent terms & EMI breakdowns
✔️ Verify if the app is listed on the Google Play Store or App Store (many scam apps use direct APKs)
✔️ Read genuine user reviews
✔️ Confirm if the lender has a website, customer care & grievance policy
