How to identify fake loan apps

The interest rate for an average commercial bank loan in Nigeria is 24 percent per annum. However, fake loan apps’ interest rates are between 75 percent and 400 percent. These are a few red flags you should look out to identify a fake loan app.

  • Small loan amount
  • Crazily High-interest rate
  • Fake office address
  • The loan company is unregistered
  • Short loan Repayment time
  • The loan company pressures you to act immediately
  • Fake or insecure Lender’s website
  • Card verification fee

KashKash

KashKash is the first application on our list of fake loan apps in Nigeria. It claims to provide flexible online loan products to consumers across the country, adding that all you have to do is download the app from the Google Play Store and apply for the loan.

Claim on a KashKash Loan

Loan Amount: ₦3,000 ~ ₦200,000
Loan Term: the shortest is 91 days, the longest is 365 days
Interest rate: With a minimum of 0.1% up to 1%
Origination Fee: Range from NGN 1,174 – NGN 6,000 for a one-time charge
Annual interest rates from 36.5% to 300%.

The interest rate is calculated on a daily basis.
No hidden charges;

However, almost all of these claims have been proven to be false or dubious. KashKash is one of Nigeria’s most popular fake loan apps. They never give out loans of N200,000, and all of their loans are for 7 days with very high astronomical interest rates, despite their promise of low interest.

KashKash will shame you if you default on their meager loan. The lending platform is a loan shark, and it was recently shut down in Lagos and is about to be prosecuted.

How Fake Loan Apps in Nigeria Carry Out Their Business

Recently, there has been an increase in the number of predatory, fraudulent fake loan apps in Nigeria, with the sole purpose of scamming poor and hapless borrowers and swindling them of the little money they have with them, or becoming loan sharks, requesting incredibly high interest rates and illegal down payment before getting a loan.

These fake loan apps in Nigeria either demand an illegal security deposit from their potential customers or ask them to pay loan processing fees. Some people enjoy threatening and blackmailing customers at every opportunity, as well as insulting and using derogatory language on them.

9ja Cash

9ja cash is another bad loan app that you should avoid. Sokoloan, a lending app that has been banned by Nigerian regulators, owns and manages the app.

9ja cash has all the hallmarks of a totally fake loan app written all over it. The platform charges an exorbitant interest rate on each loan and restricts loan tenure to 7 days rather than the required minimum of 60 days. They also slander their borrowers with threats and defamatory messages, which extends to your phone’s contacts. An act that violates user privacy

NairaPlus

NairaPlus is probably the number one loan app everyone should stay clear of. It is one of the quick loan apps that always pop up on advertisements promising mouthwatering loans until you give them a try. Once you decide to deal with them, you should know that they have no regard for data privacy of their users and you should expect blackmailing and threatening messages if you default in repaying even for just a day.

Sokoloan 

 

 

Sokoloan is one of the most popular quick loan apps in Nigeria and it is one of the worst apps to borrow from. Based on our research, we discovered that Sokoloan has about three other mobile loan apps offering the same service under different names. Sokoloan has a bad reputation that precedes them, it is one of the most unprofessional platforms out there. The platform does not declare its charges until they give you a loan and they only give you 7 days to repay your loan. Actually, it’s more or less 6 days long. Sokoloan was fined by National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA) when a significant number of customers reported them for invading their privacy and sending threats and curses even without an outstanding debt.

A major decision was taken against bad loan apps in Nigeria in August 2021, when NITDA fined Soko Lending Company the sum of N10 million for invading the privacy of their users and for sending threatening messages to borrowers, a practice regarded as a privacy invasion.

9Credit

9Credit is one of the bad loan apps in Nigeria that you should never collect money from. Besides the fact that they give 7 days to repay, they go to the extreme to recover their money. Imagine your boss or your family member telling you they got a message like the one below.

URGENTLY TREAT!!!

Google’s requirements to operate a loan app

fake loan apps in nigeria

Loan apps available on the Google Play Store that offer short-term loans are required by Google policy to give borrowers at least 60 days from the date of issue to repay any loan.

The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Consumer Protection Regulation prohibits financial institutions from contacting a loan defaulter’s friends, employers, or relatives unless consent is obtained.
