Loan Sharks can affect more than funds, they can use manipulative and aggressive tactics to get their way at the expense of someone else. There is a misconception that loan shark borrowers are to blame for their situations. All blame lies with the loan shark. If you or someone you know might be involved with a loan shark contact one of our team today - www.stoploansharks.co.uk #stoploansharksengland ... See MoreSee Less

Loan sharks trap and manipulate their borrowers, making them think it is their fault they are in this situation. No one should be made to feel ashamed of the position someone else has put them in. Loan sharks are the ones to blame for your debt to them. No borrower should feel any blame or shame for being entrapped by a loan shark. We are here to help and support anyone in the grasp of a loan shark, contact the team today - www.stoploanshark.co.uk #stoploansharksengland #StopLoanSharks #loansharkawareness #DebtSupport #financialliteracy ...

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.
