Description

This scam arrives in your mail in the form of a double sided postcard that reads "home records division" on one side and "Homeowner protection division on the other." There is information on this postcard that can be found via public information on the internet via someones records, and they provide a 'ID' and 'pin code' for you to use that is there to prove that you did indeed receive this postcard. It stresses that your home warranty is set to expire, and that you should 'act now before it is too late.' There are videos on youtube from local news stations that talk about this scam, one such video that I found being from KSL News Utah. From what other people say in facebook groups who have encountered this scam from all across the USA, these scammers will ask for your credit card information over the phone to renew the 'warranty', they then take your money (likely stealing your credit card information to boot), and nobody actually comes to 'inspect your home'.
