Recently, there was a video on the Internet showing that a Mr. Gao in Zhengzhou, Henan Province found himself under his name while handling business at the Bank of China Unprovoked an extra net loan installment loan of 975 yuan. By the time Mr. Gao found out that the loan had been repaid for 4 periods. According to the loan information and Mr. Gao's recollection, this online loan was generated when he paid the phone bill at a local telecom business office.
At that time, Mr. Gao signed a contract called "China Telecom Orange Installment Notice" with the business hall. At that time, Mr. Gao thought it was just an ordinary telephone bill payment contract, so he signed the contract. Later, I found out that I had an extra online loan loan for no reason. When I asked the staff about this contract, was told that this contract without any online loan information was actually an online loan contract that required installment repayment.

But when Mr. Gao signed, the staff did not truthfully inform this information. As a result, Mr. Gao had an inexplicable amount of online loans under his name, which affected the normal banking business. For the institution that provided this loan, the video showed that the company that actually signed an online loan installment contract with Mr. Gao was called Immediate Consumer Finance Co., Ltd., and the loan amount was 975 yuan.

That is to say, the user indirectly immediately immediately through China Telecom without being truthfully informed Finance applied for a consumer installment loan. The user pays the phone bill to the telecommunications company on a monthly basis, and the telecommunications company returns the phone bill to Immediate Finance.
And whether this type of operation is a common phenomenon is still unknown.
