Taking a loan should empower you, not put you at risk. With rising digital threats, fraud prevention is crucial to ensure your money and data stay safe while borrowing responsibly.
Always borrow from a verified lender registered with the RBI.
Use official websites or apps downloaded via Play Store/App Store.
Never share PAN, Aadhaar, or personal info with unknown sources.
Read the loan agreement carefully and always ask for the Key Facts Statement (KFS).

Report the fraud promptly to authorities such as the FTC or FBI. Monitor your accounts closely and seek legal advice if needed to protect yourself and prevent further loss.
Legitimate lenders may charge a loan origination or application fee, usually ranging from 0.5% to 8% of the loan amount, which covers processing costs. These fees are disclosed upfront and can sometimes be rolled into the loan balance. However, no reputable lender asks for fees before approving the loan, and advance fee loan scams should be avoided. Fibe doesn’t ask for any fees before approving or processing your loan. Always verify fee details with your lender directly.
Fibe is ISO/IEC 27001 certified and its PCI-DSS app-based journey makes the loan application super secure and easy to apply.
Unverified apps, no RBI registration, hidden charges and lenders that demands upfront fees.
