Expert Opinion
Imagine fielding a call from a number that keeps showing up as a student loan collector. The script usually asks for your account or Social Security number, then claims to need the info to locate a borrower. Never give personal data to an unsolicited caller; ask for a callback number and verify the request on the official Nelnet website. Hang up if the person can’t provide a verifiable employee ID, and add the number to your phone’s block list. Report repeated harassment to the FTC and, if you suspect identity theft, file a complaint with the FTC and your credit bureaus. A quick note to your lender’s official support line can also get your number removed from their dialer.

It appears that the calls are from Nelnet, possibly regarding outstanding student loans. If you call back and reach the main menu, you can request to speak with a representative and explain the situation.
