Got unwanted call from 866-394-8866?
My mom received the same message as everyone else. Barbara Anderson, ref# 02025. Pretty convincing robocall though. They're getting fancy with the scams.
I was told to call 8663948866 REF#02025. When I checked the caller ID the name that showed up was As a student this scam is dangerous as I do have federal loans, but I know my repayment options and they are in deferment anyways. Make sure any students who do get this call ...
Just received second phone call from "Barbara Anderson" I have not answered and a voicemail has been left both times with different call back numbers. Definite SCAM
Deborah Anderson calling about federal student loan payment changes. Ref#02025. Annoying
Received a call this morning from this phone number, it showed up instead as 240-232-7589, but advised to call back at 866-394-8866 with reference number 02025. She said her name was Barbara Anderson and she wanted to discuss with me my options (with the new changes) for student loan repayment. Obviously, I get so much spam these days that I did not call back. Frankly, who has time for this? Anyways... get it!
Called my 87 year old mother, saying she was a co-signer on student loans. When I called the number, they hung up on me over 9 times and I never got to even know where I was calling. Scammers!
Barbara Anderson call in reference to student loans. I call the number 4 times. When i asked any questions, the call call was disconnected. They would not give me the name of the company or look up the reference i was given. They left a message stating the call was about student loans. Per Department of Educations rules, they are not allowed to say that before confirming the borrower.
