Please, what can I do to stop Okash from calling me?
They call me at least twice every single day. I have never taken a loan from any loan shark, and I never will, even under duress.
No matter how many times I block their number, they keep calling from different numbers, which is extremely disturbing.

The worst part is that I can't even speak with the person to tell her to stop calling. It’s always a recorded voice, and as soon as I hear, "Hello, this is Gift from Okash," I hang up.

I’ve reached out to them on Twitter asking them to stop disturbing me with calls. Despite this, just today, I received three different calls from them, and I blocked those numbers too.

I can understand why some people take loans from them and then avoid repaying—both the lender and the borrower seem driven by greed.

I don't understand why they are so persistent in trying to force a loan on me.

Is it possible to take legal action against them? What can I do to stop this constant harassment?

I get same calls also. What i did was to study the number series which they usually call me with. I then downloaded truecaller and blocked numbers containing those numbers. E.G 0708264... 0700400... 020923....

Go to true caller.

I was once in your shoe but mine is fair money. The moment I reached out to them through their mail, they eventually stopped.

Someone has used your number as one of the guarantors or used your personal details to obtain loans without you knowing

One of the madness going on in Nigeria now.

hummm.....this could be it 🤔

Dogalmighty17:

Na then registrar find out say over half of lecturers and staff wey dey school don collect loan from different loan apps.

Download and Install True Caller, put your phone on silence or vibration only. Then block all the possible numbers

Pay them their money back

Easybet1:
I have never registered on any of the loan shark before and I will never do so. How they got my number is what I don't understand. I have like 50 of their numbers in my blocklist. Only God knows how many number they have, they keep calling with another number everyday.

So annoying

They likely buy numbers from bet sites!

I thought I was the only one going through this mess.

WHEREISMANNA:
u av opay acc

Or

Maybe d sim card was used by someone b4


I can help u get the premium version of the CallApp below

Or

Premium Truecaller

I tried premium subscription, they said its only available for India.
Rejected all my ATM cards.

How did you do yours?

Easybet1:
I have it. I still have to block them through my phone and true caller before I stop receiving calls from that particular number. But the problem is, they keep calling with another number everyday. That screenshot is my blocklist and all the number belong to them

I don't think you are correct by that information. True caller app automatically identifies all these numbers as spams because many people might have reported the numbers on True caller app. At least, those numbers don't usually get through on my phone, I would only see "flashing".

Ebigwei007:
If you are using andriod phone, go to ur sim setting, then you will see a place they wrote sim harrasment then allow it, what it means is that any number you didnt save on ur phone cannot call you.

The bad side is that, you will be unreachable when who knows you use a different number to call you. My line is a business line

zinizta:
pay them their money you owe them

I'm not owing they call me too. Check my topics

There are possible reasons that your BVN must have been used by some else to take loans from these ungodly loan sharks... Anyway,in the main time,you can restrict your incoming calls to only Contacts stored(unanimous numbers both hidden/shown numbers will Not ring out)on your phone/sim(s).With this,you only get notifications for such calls...

Continue blocking the number Op

airsaylongcome:
They are using a contact centre software that is configured to dial and play a recording. That software also has capability to spoof the number you see when they call you. The ways to stop the calls is to either get a new SIM or get them to remove you from their "outbound calling list". If you are patient enough, you can escalate to NCC. This may take a longer route but it can be "profitable". Document every time you get a call from them: date, time and possibly duration of the calls. Record the call if possible. Email their customer care with a copy of the recorded call and ask them to take you off their calling list. Do this for like a week. Then start copying NCC the following week. Then file a complaint of harassment with NCC. Na Chinese dey behind all of that.

It will never be well with those Chinese cockcroaches

This is highly likely that was what happened, but i thought this loan companies are supposed to verify the autheticities of people borrowing before lending money out.

You signed up on a loan app or site before, that's how they got your number. Whether you went ahead and borrowed from them or not.

I am a victim too, but since last three days when I called them out on Facebook, tagged EFCC, ICPC CPC, NCC, they haven't called me again.

Loan apps used to be a quick help until last year when the interest rates became high as a result of which their customers drastically reduced.

To remain in business, they created a department where each staff is given 100 numbers to call daily with the target that at least 10 of them must apply for loan by fire by force otherwise the staff will be sacked.

Same goes with loan recovery.

Bros so about the calls, they are simply desperate for business.

Their female staff with sweet voice will start calling you soon.

Me too oo. U will hear... Hi, I'm Gift from Okash. This same girl calls me like a million times in a week. Wtf mehnnn

Their marketers are something Else , Just chop their loan shikena

I will go borrow money from the so called Okash. They can call me all they like, it would not bother me. Bleep dem!


I am already in debt of £75000 with Barclays bank, who is Okash? What are they gonna do? Kill me? They d have to find me first.
