Type of a scam Government Agency Imposter
I currently have Direct PLUS Parent loans for my son. I contacted the assumed fraudulent agency thinking it was contracted by the U.S. Department of Education. I thought this was another effort to consolidate my loans for loan debt forgiveness, which I had to opt-out of last year with Nelnet, before my loan transferred to Mohela. I contacted the agency to only declare my opt-out from what I thought to be a consolidation and not to have any debt forgiven. I did not provide SSN or DOB, but the report I provided to the agency included my name, address, email, phone number, and redacted Loan Award ID number.
FRAUD REPORT:
Received a letter in the mail titled “Final Notice – Time Sensitive: One Time Account Adjustment Available For: (my First & Last Name). A Benefit ID# and Reference ID (both the same number) was provided. The letter stated I may be eligible for student loan forgiveness and provided instructions on how to create a new student FSA ID.
I called the Student Loan Assistance Department at 1-800-486-6045 provided on the letter. Someone answered sooner than I expected, considering I have had to deal with student loan service providers before. I spoke with a gentleman named Bryan and told him I was calling in regards to the letter received and which loan forgiveness plan the letter referred to and told him I request to opt-out. He then asked for my Reference ID (SP3112002575) on the letter. When I provided it, he confirmed my name and correct current address, and also asked if the number I was calling from was a good callback number. He then continued and confirmed a ball-park figure of my loan balance and asked if I was a past or current student. Since I replied I was a current student, he said I would have to wait until completed with school before I could apply. At some point, he also asked what year I planned to graduate.
He then asked if I had an FSA account and instructed me to send him information, so they could update my most current loan into their system. He directed me, once logged in to FSA, to click on my name on the top right-hand side of the FSA webpage, then scroll down the list and select ‘My Aid.’ He then told me to click on the ‘Download My Aid Data’ button, and send him a copy of the Notepad as an attachment to his email at [email protected]. When I asked him to spell out his email address, he did not use the traditional phonetic alphabet and used uncommon words to describe the letters, such as indigo for “i” and elephant for “e.’ He stayed on the line until he received my email with the attachment, but then put me on a brief (10-15 second) hold once he received it. When he returned from the hold, he stated or explained the reason why I was sent the letter was because my recent loan states ‘LOAN ORIGINATED’ for Current Loan Status, and mentioned again I would have to wait once I (in this case- my son) graduated from college. I continued to ask him a series of questions in which he could not answer, or kept recommending me to contact Mohela. Before hanging up with Bryan, I asked if I would receive a confirmation email or reference number for the conversation and/or actions that took place between us over the phone and email, but he said no there would not.
