The New Jersey Division of Banking and CFPB recommend watching for these warning signs when evaluating any lender:

Charges prior to funding. Reputable lenders licensed in New Jersey will not request fees before loan disbursement. Any upfront payment demand is likely a scam.

No license confirmation. If a lender cannot provide their license number from the New Jersey Division of Banking, do not proceed. Verify any lender at banking.New Jersey.gov.

APR not disclosed upfront. TILA requires APR disclosure before signing. If a lender refuses to state the APR clearly or buries it in fine print, this is a legal violation you can report to the CFPB.
