Berlin, February 23, 2026 – The Unzer Group warns of a fraudulent website operating under the domain unzerfinanzpro.de. The site claims to grant personal loans within a few minutes and unlawfully uses the Unzer logo as well as company information of a subsidiary. The website has no connection to Unzer.

As part of the fraudulent offer, interested parties are asked to transfer an amount of 250 euros in advance before the supposed loan is paid out. This procedure corresponds to a typical pattern of fraud in the financial services sector.

Unzer makes it expressly clear:

  • Unzer does not require any advance payments for loans or financing.
  • The services offered under the mentioned domain are not authorized.
  • The use of the logo, company data, and regulatory information is carried out without consent and abusively.

The company has already filed a criminal complaint against the unknown operators and informed the Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin). "The protection of our merchants, partners, and end customers is our top priority. We take decisive action against any form of brand misuse and fraud," explains Max Steiger, Chief Compliance and Governance Officer at Unzer.

Unzer recommends exercising particular caution with financial offers, not making any advance payments, and, in case of doubt, using only the company's official communication channels.
