Description
I received a document through USPS . That appeared to be a check but when I opened it, it was marked as an "Allocated Waiver" for $195.00. The only contact information given was a phone number 800 201 9452 and the check like document was signed William H. Keating. The postmark was from Portland OR. The main text of the document included my name and address. End red as follows. This letter is to inform you that an important matter regarding the property at (my address) secured by your current lender. We reserve the right to revoke allocated waiver after 7 days of receiving this notice. Please call immediately as this will be the final attempt to notify you 800 201 9452. Although my curiosity was aroused, I did NOT call the 800 number and did an internet search on William H Keating and the phone number. I found a previously reported incident on BBB
