Fake KreditBee calls and apps
Callers using KreditBee threaten contacts or ask for fees and screen sharing. Learn safe ways to check any loan demand.
KreditBee is an Indian digital lending app that offers short-term personal loans to salaried people and young borrowers. Because many people use it, scammers pretend to be KreditBee on phone calls, in apps and on WhatsApp. This page lists the lies they usually tell and how to check before you act.
Lines used in fake KreditBee calls and apps
- Caller offers a larger limit if you pay a fee into a personal account
- Fake collector threatens to message your contacts about the loan
- Caller asks for screen sharing to fix a repayment error
- Chat contact sends a fake loan app that asks for gallery and contacts access
How to verify it yourself
Check the loan balance and due date inside the official app, which you should install only from the store listing. A limit increase is decided by the lender and does not need a fee paid to someone on chat. Threats to message your contacts are a pressure tactic, and you can report them on the cybercrime portal. Never type your UPI PIN to claim cashback, because a PIN is only for paying. Avoid apps asking for contacts or gallery access.
Quick checklist
- Do not tap links or call numbers inside the message.
- Open the official app, or type the official website yourself, and look for the same notice.
- Never share an OTP, PIN, CVV or password with anyone, including "staff".
- If money moved, call 1930 and your bank at once.

Questions
A caller says they are from KreditBee. Is it real?
Treat it as unverified. Hang up and contact KreditBee through its official app or the number printed on your card, bill or official website. Never install an app or share an OTP because a caller asked.
Can KreditBee ask me to install an app on a call?
Be very careful. Scammers use screen-sharing and fake apps to watch your screen and read OTPs. Install apps only from the official store listing that you find yourself, never from a link or a caller.
