With so many loan scams going on, how do I know FindTheLoan.com is a legit website?

We’re so glad you asked! FindTheLoan.com isn’t just about empowering and educating borrowers — it’s also about protecting you and connecting you only with legitimate lenders.

Our company’s UEN number is stated below. You can verify it on the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA) website to confirm our legitimacy as a registered Singapore company. Our CEO is also a guest contributor for the Consumers Association of Singapore (CASE), and we’ve partnered with other associations for public education events — check out our blog and Facebook page for examples.

Unfortunately, we’ve come across scam websites that copy other companies’ UENs, content, and logos to build lookalike pages. If you’re brought to a website via an ad, SMS, or email, double-check the URL — scammers often use misleading domains like FinbTheLoan.com or FindTheLoan.co, hoping you won’t notice the difference and might unknowingly input your credentials.

Many phishing scams aim to steal your banking or credit card details. Remember — there is no need to enter your bank account or credit card details just to make a loan enquiry. Also, legitimate lenders will never ask you to transfer money upfront for “processing fees” or “deposits” before disbursing a loan.

To educate yourself further on scams, check out the National Crime Prevention Council’s ScamAlert.sg — a trusted resource that shares examples of phishing and loan scams.

Also note that only certain types of lenders are legally allowed to advertise. For example, licensed moneylenders are not permitted to send WhatsApp or SMS messages soliciting loans. When you use FindTheLoan.com, your contact information is never shared with any lender until you choose to — further protecting your privacy.
