Exposed: How Fake Loan Apps Trap Indians & Harass Families — And What You Can Do About It- Cut My loan

They threaten to leak photos if payment isn’t made

“Sir, paisa nahi diya toh aapki photo viral kar denge.”
Sounds absurd?
Unfortunately, this is the new reality for thousands of Indians trapped by shady loan apps.
In the name of quick money, these apps are pushing people into a nightmare of:

• Sky-high illegal interest
• Foreign torture calls at midnight
• Threats of defamation
• Harassment of family, friends, and colleagues
• Public shaming on WhatsApp and social media

What Are Fake Loan Apps, and Why Are They So Dangerous?

They threaten to leak photos if payment isn’t made

Fake loan apps promise:

• Instant loans within 5 minutes
• No paperwork, no KYC hassles
• Just upload your photo, Aadhaar, PAN—and boom, money credited

But the trap lies in the terms they don’t tell you:

• 7-day repayment deadlines
• Interest rates as high as 500% annually
• Access to your phone contacts, camera, gallery, and location
• Use of defamation, blackmail, and psychological torture to recover money

Most of these apps are not RBI-approved NBFCs. Many operate from foreign call centers, using VOIP numbers or spoofed Indian numbers to hide their identity.

Common Harassment Tactics Used by Fake Loan Apps:

1. Torture Calls from Foreign Numbers

Many users report receiving 20–50 calls a day from different numbers, with agents screaming, abusing, or pretending to be police.

2. Threats of Social Defamation

Fake loan agents often send edited images of the borrower to their family, friends, or colleagues with captions like:
“Beware: Fraud Alert – This person is a loan defaulter.”
This is illegal under the Indian IT Act and a violation of your fundamental rights.

3. Access to Contacts = Harassment of Innocents

Once installed, the app asks for permission to access your phonebook. If you delay repayment, they call or message your contacts, pretending to be police or bank officials.
Even if you repay, some apps demand more or continue harassment just for fun or extortion.

The Emotional Toll: When Loan Harassment Becomes Family Trauma

We’ve had clients who:

• Deleted social media in shame
• Changed phone numbers after friends started receiving “fraud alerts”
• Had panic attacks after getting 3 AM calls from “cybercrime officers” (who were fake)
• Had marriages nearly broken due to morphed photo circulation

This is not about money anymore.
It’s about emotional blackmail, mental torture, and loss of dignity.

This Is Not Just a Financial Issue. It’s a Human Rights Issue.

You're not a fraudster.
You're just a person who made a financial decision—and deserves support, not shame.
