The Facebook page named "Personal Loan" published a post on August 8th claiming to offer loans of up to 500 thousand euros.
But after verification, hibrid.info has confirmed that the post represents a false announcement from this site.
Hibrid.info has found that the post was taken from an announcement by "Intesa Sanpaolo Bank Albania", a bank in Albania, and its description has been changed.
Facebook post link from the "Personal Loan" page:
After research conducted through the automated online program "InVID", hibrid.info has managed to find that this offer to apply for a loan is provided by the bank in Albania, "Intesa Sanpaolo Bank Albania", which, through this post made on August 1, announces the possibility of a loan at this bank (see here).
Another additional fact that makes the "Personal Loan" page on Facebook more suspicious is the lack of sufficient data that would prove credibility or reliability and transparency in the information section about the activity (about) on the "Personal Loan" page.
The “about” section shows an address in Paris where the creator of this page claims to be the headquarters of this suspicious activity, and the places in which it supposedly operates include Tirana, Munich and Pristina (see here).
This is not the first time that this site has tried to appropriate the campaigns of banks and microfinance institutions. Hibrid.info has dealt with them on several occasions (see here, here and here).
Analyze:
Hibrid.info, after verifying the facts, noticed that this site used a campaign from a bank in Albania, claiming to present it as its own.
