Staying Alert to Scams and Fraud

At Getloans247, the safety and privacy of our customers are our top priorities. This page is a proactive resource to help alert our customers and provide guidance if they suspect they've been targeted by fraud.

Top Tips:

• ⚠️ Never pay upfront for the promise of a loan.
• ⚠️ Never share personal information without verifying the identity of the person or company contacting you.
• ⚠️ Never send money to someone or a company you don’t recall borrowing from.

Fraudsters can be deceptive, often impersonating legitimate companies through fraudulent phone calls or letters offering fake loan deals. Stay vigilant against such scams.

Common Scams

Here are two common scams where fraudsters pose as lenders or credit brokers. Familiarize yourself with them to learn how to protect yourself.

Advance Fee Loan Scam:

Scammers demand upfront payment for “fees,” typically via money transfers, wire transfers, or prepaid debit cards like Green Dot. They may impersonate legitimate lenders, using fake licenses or approval letters.

Warning Signs:

• ⚠️ Requests for payment in advance
• ⚠️ Demands for payment via prepaid debit cards
• ⚠️ Requests for money through wire transfers

Debt Collection Scam:

Fraudsters impersonate legitimate collectors or lenders, making fraudulent calls to collect actual or fake debts. They may use intimidation tactics to pressure payments for non-existent or already settled debts.

Warning Signs:

• ⚠️ Threats of violence, arrest, or wage garnishment
• ⚠️ Refusal to provide loan agreement or payment history
• ⚠️ Attempts to collect an amount different from what you owe

It's essential to stay alert and report any suspicious activity to protect yourself from potential scams. Getloans247 does not require upfront payments for loans, and we never charge request fees. If you encounter any scams, please notify us immediately.
