Introduction
In the vibrant city of Nashik, where dreams of business success abound, one shop owner found himself ensnared in a cunning trap. Pretending to be XYZ banker, a fraudster promised him an unsecured business loan at a seemingly irresistible interest rate of 12%. But what seemed like a golden opportunity quickly turned into a nightmare of deception and financial exploitation. Fortunately, the timely intervention of Credit Consultancy saved the day. Let’s delve into this true incident and see how the shop owner was rescued from the clutches of deceit.
The Deceptive Offer
Imagine you’re a shop owner in Nashik, eager to grow your business. One day, a person claiming to be XYZ banker approaches you with an enticing proposition: an unsecured business loan at a low-interest rate. To gain your trust, he even provides a fake ID card. Excited about the prospect of securing much-needed funds, you agree to pay him Rs. 8,000 as “login fees.”
Caught in the Trap
Days pass, but there’s no sign of the promised loan. The imposter returns, requesting an additional Rs. 10,000 as “processing fees”. Hoping to expedite the loan approval process, you comply and hand over the money. Finally, the imposter shares a fake sanction letter, assuring you that the loan is approved and the funds will soon be disbursed.
The False Promise
Weeks go by, and there’s still no sign of the loan. When you press the imposter for updates, he demands that you pay the first installment in advance to his account. Feeling desperate and unsure, you pay Rs. 10,000 more, hoping it will lead to the long-awaited disbursement of the loan.
