The Financial Services and Markets Authority (FSMA) warns the public against the fraudulent activities of Finev Finance, a company that is offering credit illegally to consumers.
Finev Finance is not authorized as a lender or registered as a credit intermediary in Belgium. Therefore, Finev Finance may not offer credit in Belgium.
According to the information available to the FSMA, it seems that the credit being offered by Finev Finance is entirely fraudulent. The company operates as follows: if a consumer tries to take up the offer, he or she is asked to make certain payments supposedly to cover various costs relating to the credit (for example, so-called dossier fees or an insurance premium). Once these costs have been paid, the consumer does not receive the credit, and it is almost impossible to recover the sums that were paid. More information about this type of consumer credit fraud is available in the general warning published by the FSMA on 18 January 2021.
Finev Finance usurps the logos of authorized credit institutions.
The FSMA therefore very strongly advises against responding to any offers of credit made by Finev Finance and against making any payment to the company.
