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?

please mod help me move it to the front page




I was shocked when they called me last week over a loan someone took from them . They said I was used as emergency number . I warmed them seriously never to call me . I am acar dealer with my number In the public space . I don't patronise such loans ...if by chance a scammer uses my number as emergency number I expected a responsible organisation to call me for confirmation b4 giving out the loan . But they are doing the opposite . They will give loan to scammers thst uses other peoples number as emergency number and after which they start calling innocent people that has no clue something like that ever happened . This is a big shame to this country.
.a nation of scammers

I had this nature lending sending me tons of messages which I find it as invading my privacy, I never requested for any kind of loan from them, that made me wonder how they got my number, I was very clear in my email.
Had it been the didn’t stop sending me msgs, my next action would have been to sue them, and demand an explanation how they got my number, those loan apps are very good at stealing peoples PII

Same here buddy , Phone block functions and Truecaller function is what am currently using to engage this fight,. Fight.., Fight..

I pray God heal this land for the sake of the righteous, because in a sane situation , i should be able to get them arrested for invading my privacy.

I also noticed they have different numbers.., you wonder with compulsory register your sim with NIN or risk loosing your SiM card., is not working at this time,,, a scammer owning over 50 lines ripping people and no one is making affort to arrest them,..

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.
Blocking on right down side
Block number series
Block numbers that contain.

Stop picking calls of numbers you do not know
Simple!

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
Some one must have used your phone number to collect loan. They call me too Though.
The introduction of face verification by most of the fintech companies will stop all these acts.

I remember I created a thread here on Nairaland because of this stupid act of OKash, how they almost frustrate my with their annoying calls. Somebody gave me a simple logic that worked at least 75%.

The next time they call you, pick the call and don't say anything just leave the phone somewhere until they end the call themselves. The next time they will call you would be after 3 days or even more.

If they call you again, and it's not a pre-recorded call, tell them that the next time they call you, you'll sue them for harassment.

After you say this, hang up.

Make sure you're not owing them.
