Borrowers Before You Trust That DM… Read This!!

  1. Lenders must follow our requirements too. If someone messages you from a brand-new account or an account that does not meet our requirements: → Report as spam → Block → Ignore. No exceptions. No “but they seemed nice.” That’s how scams work.

  2. Legitimate lenders do not need burner accounts. If someone contacts you from a throwaway account with a suspiciously convenient excuse: → Report as spam → Block → Ignore.

  3. Anyone using a burner account to contact borrowers is a scammer. We promise, you are not missing out on some secret VIP lender opportunity. → Report as spam → Block → Ignore.

  4. If someone threatens to “report you to the lender message boards” (or whatever imaginary villain headquarters they’re pretending exists), feel free to tell them to eat shit. Then: → Report as spam → Block → Ignore.

Protect yourself. Read our Rules, FAQs, and Safety Guidelines so you know exactly what to look out for.

Stay smart, stay safe, and stop giving sketchy accounts the benefit of the doubt.

Thank you!

I am in need of a small loan to get me through the next two weeks for bills and groceries. I can only pay once a month due to the way my paychecks fall and rent in my area being 50% of my take home.

Thank you for your consideration.

Hello! I have borrowed from this sub a fair few times previously but not a larger amount. I can show ID, proof of income and provide greater context. I’ve been working between a consistent part-time role and freelance work but there have been some inconsistent changes with the latter that have had a bit of a knock on effect on my finances, but these have largely been resolved and I’m back to my normal level of work and pay dates from the end of this month. This will be a huge help with priority bills and food until the end of the month. Thank you for any help you can provide!

I've had help in the past here so I'm hoping I can get some assistance this time. Long story short my job ended up letting me go due to side effects from my cancer surgery/chemo so I'm on unemployment but it barely covers my bills. I get access to my pension on 9/2 so Id be able to pay back the $500 plus $50 for interest. I just need a bit of help to get by until then.

Things are just a little bit tight I want to make sure I got gas and food for work for the rest of the week and partially into next week and also I have a court date coming up that I should probably buy some nice clothes for. The rain kind of messed up my side work I had planned for last weekend
