Title: is my account activity too shitty to start offering loans?
Post by: yahoo62278 on December 18, 2014, 08:26:15 AM
i was thinking of starting to offer micro loans to gain me a little interest and to help others out in need here and there. the question is is my rep/account too new to do this?

Anybody can give out loans. For accounts with not enough trust it is recommended to use escrow to hold collateral.

You will still get ripped off for micro loans if you are not careful. Asking for collaterals is your decision.
If you are offering collateral free loans, you are taking the risk so there is no reason for anybody to not seek the loan from you.

for me your activity and trust seem to be ok
just use well known escrow to hold collateral (not yourself) and be careful

Anybody can loan on this forum. I have even seen newbies doing this.
Although please escrow for collaterals.

OP needs to keep in mind that accounts with green trust are also for sale and could be used in here without anyone really knowing that. 

I would only do collateral and escrow at this point

If someone says you are too new to hold their collateral just have an escrow hold onto it for the duration of the loan. Anyone can be a lender.
