Yesterday evening, a wave of urgent‑sounding calls claimed the new administration would cancel student loan forgiveness unless you called back within 24 hours. These messages are classic scam tactics that harvest personal data and create panic. Never share Social Security numbers, bank details, or loan information over the phone unless you can independently verify the organization’s official contact channels. Hang up, block the number, and report the incident to the FTC and your state consumer protection agency. Consider adding the caller to your phone’s spam list and regularly review your credit reports for unauthorized activity.
Like evryone else, they left a voicemail saying it's urgent that I call back, but I've blocked them since it's just a scam about student loan forgiveness
Before Trump took office, they was offering a last chance to reduce student loan forgiveness within 24 hours, sounds like a scam
An automated message was left, falsely claiming that student loan forgiveness programs would cease upon Trump's inauguration. Despite verifying the information as false through Washington Post reports, a call back to the provided 888 number only led to a voicemail. This is a blatant scam.
A message was left stating that Trump had won, followed by an inaudible segment, and a request to call back this number
They left a message stating that because of Trump's winning, all student loan forgiveness will be stoped and I have 24 hours to contact them
This is a scam about student loans.
Answering the call revealed a student loan scam, leading to the caller being blocked.
