## Resource

A Glasgow dad borrowed $150 for his daughter’s school trip—only to be trapped in a $1,000 debt spiral with a ruthless loan shark for nearly two years. Meanwhile, a young mom borrowed $10 for school trousers and spiraled into debt chaos as demands escalated. Both victims were rescued by Trading Standards Scotland, now using credit unions and debt advice to rebuild.
