Mia Torres, or someone claiming to be her, has been making the rounds with calls about student loan forgiveness. Users report that the caller, sometimes identified as Jacob Carson, has a surprising amount of personal information, including addresses and partial Social Security numbers. They offer a deal where 99% of your student loan debt could be forgiven after 120 months of zero payments, but insist on getting a credit or debit card number before sending any documentation. This is a classic scam tactic, and the insistence on immediate payment details is a major red flag. If you receive a call like this, do not share any personal or financial information. Verify the legitimacy of any offers through official channels, like the Department of Education or your student loan servicer. Stay vigilant and report these calls to the FTC at IdentityTheft.gov.
