Thanks to @StaffsPolice for having us along to share ideas on spotting loan sharks in communities. Illegal lending often links to crimes like drugs, violence & theft. We’re making sure loan sharks are punished for their illegal lending too.

Loan Sharks can affect more than funds, they can use manipulative and aggressive tactics to get their way at the expense of someone else. If you or someone you know might be involved with a loan shark contact one of our team today - http://www.stoploansharks.co.uk #StopLoanSharksEngland
