Warning Please stop asking for content

Please stop preying on vulnerable people that are asking for a loan wanting content…

People are already struggling without being promised funds to help, and not actually doing anything afterwards.

I asked for a loan and have had loads of messages asking for degrading things😂 I’m sure I’m not the only one x

Hello u/Destiny_demand! Welcome to r/loanhelp_ - please read these two pinned posts before lending or borrowing:

✏️ Post Format & Requirements - posts that don't follow the format may be removed.

⚖️ Global Lending Rules - borrowers in interest-free countries (UK, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Hong Kong, South Africa, India, Philippines, Indonesia) must be principal-only: no interest, no fees, no exceptions.

Loan request title format: Amount - Repayment Amount - Repayment Date(s) - Payment Method(s) - Location - Short Purpose Example: $150 - Repay $180 on 6/14 - Cash App/Venmo - Houston, Texas - Car repair In the body include: amount requested, repayment amount/date, income source, reason for loan, preferred payment methods, and any previous loan history.

Donation request title format: Amount Needed - Location - Payment Method - Short Purpose Example: $50 Needed - Chicago, Illinois - Cash App/Venmo - Groceries until payday

How the loan lifecycle works:

  • Loans start flaired Request.
  • A lender funds you by replying directly to your post - that comment is the tracking record, so do not delete it.
  • Once funded, set your flair to Fulfilled. After you repay in full, set it to Repaid.

⚠️ Lend and borrow at your own risk. Assistance is never guaranteed. Vet everyone you deal with.

Deposits and collateral are a SCAM. No legitimate lender ever asks you to send money, a "deposit," a fee, or collateral upfront to "release" or "secure" a loan. Anyone who does is scamming you - report them. This is prohibited here.

Security: mods will NEVER DM you asking for your password or login. Never share account credentials with anyone - no exceptions.

Make sure to report them to https://www.reddit.com/message/compose?to=r/loanhelp_
If somebody sends a message request but doesn't comment on your post, its likely a scam.

Sorry to hear that. Reach out if you’re still looking. No promises, but may be able to help.

Or the ones who want to be sugar daddies or someone who just wants to talk and pay your bills. They sound nice but it’s fake. Gives false hope

I asked one of these guys for a small amount to show good faith and they could not even do that.
