I’d be concerned about them getting driver’s license info, so I’d suggest being extra vigelent about watching out for identity theft, but to be honest, that isn’t an issue I’ve dealt with personally, so I’m not sure of the best solution. I’m glad to hear that you caught the issue before things got worse.

Answered all my questions about a similar FINAL NOTICE letter I received. Was suspicious, and just googled, since I’m scheduled to received a return call. Which I won’t answer. I didn’t give any information including login info, except they did ask for my driver’s license number, which I gave. Can they do anything with that information? I usually do not fall for things like this, but like many others above, I did. Just read the fine print (duh, how did I miss that?) that indicates “fee based application assistance”.

I’m so glad that you were able to catch the issue and protect your account before they got your money. Getting a new account number is a smart move.

I had to get a new account at my bank yesterday because I gave them ALL my info to. I felt sick 30 minutes later.

Hi Chris,

Not giving them any bank information was a smart move. There are a few other moves to consider if they have any of your information.

I’m sorry to hear that it happened to you. I’ve previously written an article with tips on what to do if you think you have been the victim of a student loan scam.

A phone call with her and everything happened so quickly. Wish I would’ve looked here before providing all of my info. I already contacted my bank. Please provide me with tips.

Thank you!

Oh No! That sounds awful!

Last summer, I wrote an article with tips and suggestions if fear you might be the victim of a scam.
