An information event about illegal money lending is being held in Wokingham on Wednesday, March 13.
You’re invited to visit The Bradbury Centre in Rose Street from 6pm until 7.30pm to learn more about what illegal money lending is, how to check if a lender is legitimate and how to spot a loan shark.
No booking is required and refreshments will be served from 6pm, with a presentation starting at around 6.30pm.
There will be an opportunity to meet with members of the Public Protection Partnership’s fraud and scams team.
If you have obtained a cash loan that came without any paperwork and with a high rate of interest, the person is threatening you or took documents or valuables from you, then you might have borrowed from an illegal money lender.
You can also find out more and report an illegal money lender with Stop Loan Sharks.
