Description

They were posing as a home warranty company and have been sending us multiple pieces of mail saying our coverage was going to be void if we didn’t contact them. I work 1st shift, so I haven’t been able to verify if this is true or not through our bank as I’m sleeping while they’re operating. I called the number and provide basic information and was given the coverage, etc. They started asking for card information and I started to give it to them, then realized that if it was the bank we had our loan through, they’d have our card on file. So, I hung up before I was able to give them the security code. The guy said his name was either James or John, and you could tell it was pre-recorded statements as well, but I didn’t think anything of it as I’ve been up all night and am ready to go to bed now!
