Today, the Romanian Police is making a very serious warning about usury, and this is because it recently managed to deconstruct what it presents as a criminal group specialized in usury, and on this occasion it warns Romanians not to get involved in them.
"BORROWER is defined as a person who lends money in exchange for usury - this is an (excessive) interest charged on the amounts lent.
Usury is prohibited by law, and if you are aware of such activity or, in the worst case, are a victim, we advise you to report it to us!
Do not encourage usury!
Such a group was broken up in Craiova, and as a result of the searches, the police seized 64.848 lei, 64.565 euros, 6.020 pounds, 4 cars, holographic documents containing the identities of the borrowers and the loan amounts, 5 pistols ( of which 4 with non-lethal ammunition and one with a bullet), 1 rifle with non-lethal ammunition, blunt objects and cutting-piercing bodies (knives, swords, machetes, spears, clubs and telescopic sticks), computer systems, a grinder, a joint and 4 tablets of medicine."
