    Whilst its not all lenders responsibility- they have anti money laundering requirements and to be certain they know who they lend to. If its face to face applications and they have not even seen the person they are lending too, they are not really fulfilling their requirements in this area.

    IS the OP 100% sure the other family members aren't involved already? It surely isn't that easy for a 'confused' person to find the necessary paperwork to be able to take out loans in someone else's name (but get the money). How could they possibly think this was legal? I suspect we're not getting the full story here.
