Erscheinung:29.08.2025 | Topic Unauthorised business, Consumer protection De lening voor iedeeren Group: BaFin warns consumers about the website desnellelening(.)com
The Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin) warns consumers about the services offered by the De lening voor iedeeren Group. BaFin suspects the unknown operators, who purportedly have their registered office in Brussels, of using the website desnellelening(.)com to offer consumers banking business and/or payment services without the required authorisation.
Anyone providing banking business or payment services in Germany may do so only with authorisation from BaFin. However, some companies offer these services without the necessary authorisation. Information on whether a particular company has been granted authorisation by BaFin can be found in BaFin’s database of companies.
BaFin is issuing this warning on the basis of section 37 (4) of the German Banking Act (Kreditwesengesetz – KWG) and section 8 (7) of the Payment Services Supervision Act (Zahlungsdiensteaufsichtsgesetz – ZAG).
Please be aware:
BaFin, the German Federal Criminal Police Office (Bundeskriminalamt – BKA) and the German state criminal police offices (Landeskriminalämter) recommend that consumers seeking to invest money online should exercise the utmost caution and do the necessary research beforehand in order to identify fraud attempts at an early stage.
