Multiple Fake Loans Found on Hyderabad Man’s Name, You Could Be Next, Check Your Loan Status Here

According to Jani, two loans—one from HDFC Bank and another from HDB Bank—are being shown under his profile, even though he denies having taken any of them.

Hyderabad: A resident of Rajendranagar, Mohammed Jani, has alleged serious discrepancies in his CIBIL credit score, claiming that multiple loans were fraudulently taken in his name, leading to a sharp fall in his score from 800 to 679. The incident has caused him deep distress as he struggles to clear his name and restore his financial credibility.

According to Jani, two loans—one from HDFC Bank and another from HDB Bank—are being shown under his profile, even though he denies having taken any of them. He stated that he has already repaid all the genuine loans he ever took, and the newly reflected loans are completely unrelated to him.


Banks Did Not Provide Relief, Claims the Victim

When Jani approached the HDFC Bank for clarification, bank staff asked him to file an email complaint, which he did immediately. However, he says no action or support has been provided even after repeated follow-ups.

He highlighted that the fraudulent entries have severely impacted his credit score, making it difficult for him — a small trader — to seek fresh loans needed to support his business.


Appeal for Help from Cyber Crime Police

Frustrated with the lack of response from banks, Jani has now appealed to the Cyber Crime Police to investigate the matter urgently. He urged authorities to take strict action to prevent such incidents, emphasizing that if such frauds continue, small traders and self-employed individuals will suffer major financial setbacks.


Rising Cyber and Digital Fraud Cases in the City

Incidents involving cybercrime, digital fraud, and unauthorized loans have been increasing across Hyderabad. Many citizens have reported heavy losses due to fake loans, digital arrests, and fraudulent transactions.

Public groups and business communities are urging the police to implement stronger measures to curb such crimes and protect individuals from financial exploitation.
