Good Evening myFICO Friends;
I'm posting this for your opinions, below is an email my son received last night at a strange hour for business. After reading & trying to track down the authenticity of the sender, I've come to the conclusion that it is some type of scam. My son unfortunately did take out a pay day loan of some sort but says it was for $500 not 400. He has never received anything via USPS mail from this attorney.
I'm concerned since the sender had his actual SS# & name. I X’ed out his email addy, name & SS# but everything else is exactly as received. I'd appreciate any advice on how to handle this, as well as all feedback. Thank you in advance for feedback.
