Black Friday deals can be tempting, but don’t let scammers or loan sharks catch you out. Always do your research and be extra careful if someone - even a friend - suddenly offers you a 'too good to be true' loan. Because if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is.Loan sharks often take advantage of the pressure to buy, and what feels like a bargain or a helpful lifeline now can trap you in debt for months or even years.If you think you’ve been targeted by a loan shark, we’re here for you - call us anytime on 0300 555 2222. Shop smart. Stay safe.#stoploansharksengland#blackfriday ... See MoreSee Less

Stop Loan Sharks recently joined Merseyside Police’s Local Policing Team on the Wirral - Wirral Police - to deliver important education and prevention sessions to pupils at Mersey Park Primary School in Rock Ferry.The sessions looked at the pressure young people can sometimes put on parents to buy the latest clothes and gadgets - and what can happen when families who are already struggling feel pushed to find the money. Pupils also learned about the risks of borrowing from the wrong people, including how young people can be exploited or pressured into unsafe situations, such as holding weapons or getting involved in county lines activity.If you think you may have borrowed from a loan shark and want to talk confidentially, our free 24/7 hotline is here for you on 0300 555 2222.To report any other crime, please contact your local police on 101.Thanks to everyone at Merseyside Police and Mersey Park Primary for giving Sid the Shark such a warm welcome!#stoploansharksengland ...

Tempted by Black Friday deals? Loan sharks take advantage of pressure to buy, but even a ‘friendly’ offer can trap you in debt. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Think you’ve been targeted? Call 0300 555 2222. Shop smart. Stay safe. #stoploansharksengland
