Scam alert: fake student loan forgiveness calls
Summary — +18559121877
Expert Opinion
Late last week, dozens of users reported calls from 855‑912‑1877 offering fake student‑loan forgiveness or a 50% Comcast discount. The script typically pretends to be a government or utility representative, asks for personal details, and pushes an urgent callback to a separate number. Such calls are classic phishing and vishing scams. Hang up immediately, never share security codes or payment info, and verify offers directly with the official agency using known contact numbers. Block the caller, report it to the FTC, and consider adding the number to your phone’s spam filter.
