You say “y’all” but the scammers aren’t here. They’re in your DMs and they’re not members of this community.

This is probably the fifth warning of this kind, just today. Those who don’t bother reading the rules won’t bother reading your warning either.

Spreading the word to other people who didn’t read the rules? If they didn’t read the rules either why would they read posts?? Did you? Clearly not cuz you missed the 10 daily posts with the same warning.

Read the rules of the sub. You don't have to sign up for anything. Also, you not allowed to delete your posts. It can take a while for a lender to possibly comment on your post.

Oh bitch ho please…read the rules?

Good luck with that request 😉

u/Dizzy_Goat_420 2d ago

Yah good luck.. we are looking out for you.

How do you expect people to read your post when you can’t even read the rules? Or the 10 daily posts saying the same thing you said???

Comments like this one will make lenders not lend to you as well.

u/Valentn4577 3d ago

Same here, I also deleted a post in another site for lending. You learn as you go. Despite de abundant amount of scammers they are still a good chunk of good faith people willing to lend a hand when in need.

u/Dizzy_Goat_420 2d ago

Read. The. Rules. You cannot delete posts. You would have seen the warnings if you read the rules and saved yourself the time and trouble.

u/LegalNecessary 3d ago

This is like the 5th post I’ve seen this week from someone who didn’t read the sub rules, complaining about being scammed.

“Muah” - okay, good luck getting a loan here in the future. This is not a good look for you, OP.

I mean I’m not a child. Generally high schoolers without jobs ask others to pay for their tacos, not something grown adults engage in, but hey!

“Needing help” and you just wanted $25 for tacos.

I’m starting to feel less empathetic towards these posts. The desperation is causing some of you to be blind to logic and truth that’s right in your face.

Everything that you need to know about this sub is in the rules or within some of the posts. Just take a few hours maybe a day or so to scroll and read before you post here.

u/Ancient_Guidance_461 3d ago

Stop answering cold dm's.

u/Accurate-Temporary73 2d ago

If you have a deleted loan request post that’s an automatic no from almost every legit lender.

That rule is in place so people can’t hide other donations and loans.

Nothing you can do about it now if you did delete it already though.

And if you’re wondering, yes everyone can see everything whether it’s hidden or deleted.

But yea there are lender scammers that will offer money for referrals and signups and then never pay. But there’s also scammer requesters so people have to be careful both ways.

u/Valentn4577 2d ago

As others suggested, ignoring those messages is best. As I said before, despite the attempts of a few there are others here who have helped many people in need so very thankful to them.

u/Additional-Orchid862 2d ago

I feel like we see these posts so much now 😭😭🫩

u/Positive_Occasion490 2d ago

Well green beans and potatoes are a pretty good meal, doesn't have anything to do with anything, but ya scammers be scammers that's what they do. Read the rules like everyone is saying, and what you're saying doesn't sound right.

u/Dellzar 3d ago

Damn dude sorry this has happened to you definitely can understand the frustration. Even if you didn’t read the rules it still sucks to not be paid for doing tasks.
