-
Unrealistic Timelines
- “I’ll pay you back tomorrow” or “We’ll be rich in a month.”
- The speed promised is far beyond what’s plausible.
-
Absolute Guarantees
- “This is 100% risk-free.”
- In finance, there’s always risk. Absolute certainty is a red flag.
-
Promises Without Evidence
- They can’t show savings, income, or contracts to back up their claims.
- It’s all talk, no documentation.
-
Scope Creep in Commitments
- They keep adding more promises: car, tuition, business investment, inheritance.
- The list grows faster than their actual capacity.
-
Deflection When Asked for Details
- If you ask “How exactly?” they dodge with vague answers like “Don’t worry, I’ve got connections.”
- Avoiding specifics is a hallmark of overpromising.
-
Future-Based Funding
- “Once my deal closes…” or “When I get that promotion…”
- They rely on hypothetical future money, not current resources.
-
Status Signaling
- They talk about “exclusive opportunities” or “big projects” to sound important.
- The promise is more about ego than reality.
Luos are liars.
