Loan Scams on the Rise: 5 Red Flags Before You Apply Anywhere

Vizzve Admin

From fake lending apps to phishing calls offering "guaranteed loans", loan fraud is on the rise.
Scammers are targeting unsuspecting people with promises of quick money—only to trap them in hidden charges, data theft, and extortion.

At Vizzve Finance, we’re sounding the alarm—and giving you the tools to stay safe.

 5 Red Flags of a Loan Scam (That Real Lenders Like Vizzve Avoid)

🔴 1. Upfront Processing Fee Demand Without Approval

🚫 If someone asks for a “registration” or “clearance” fee before confirming your loan—it’s a scam.

At Vizzve, no fee is collected until your application is verified and approved.

🔴 2. Too-Good-to-Be-True Offers (Even With Poor Credit)

🚫 "No documents needed! ₹10 lakh in 2 minutes!"
If it sounds magical—it’s probably fake.

✅ Vizzve offers transparent, credit-based lending. Real loans require verification, even if it’s fast.

🔴 3. Unregistered Apps & Unknown Websites

🚫 Fake apps mimic trusted lenders and disappear with your data.

✅ Always download from the Google Play Store or Apple App Store, and verify the app is published by Vizzve Finance Pvt. Ltd.
Check if the platform is NBFC-registered or RBI-authorized.

🔴 4. No Physical Address or Customer Support

🚫 Scam lenders disappear when something goes wrong. No emails, no calls, no support.

✅ Vizzve offers real-time support via in-app chat, email, and helpline. Our office details are public, and we're always reachable.

🔴 5. Threats, Harassment, or Social Media Blackmail

🚫 Some fraudsters extort money by accessing your contacts, sending abusive messages, or threatening to shame you online.

✅ Vizzve follows strict data privacy laws and ethical collection practices. We never harass.

 Vizzve’s Quick Safety Checklist Before Applying for Any Loan

✅ Check RBI/NBFC license status
