Scamming - Fraud
I keep getting scam calls from a "Haley Mendez with FLA servicing", however, the number that shows up on my phone is 323-507-0273, and the "call back" number is 855-484-1808. I know it is a scam because I have never had any student loans. Below is a voicemail left by the callers.
Got a voicemail: "Hey it's Haley Mendez with FLA servicing, if you could give me a call back when you receive this at 855-507-7888. I'm just giving you a call in regards to your student loans. Um, we are starting pre enrollment for all forgiveness files and possible long discharge files. It's going to be a bit more challenging as call deadlines come so we don't want anyone status to change especially for these programs"

Got the same call from Haley Mendez. The number showed as 520.386.7935. Voicemail said:I'm just giving you a call hey Kaylee meant is it FLA servicing if you can give me a call back when you receive this message at 855-765-2002 I'm just giving you a call in regards to your student loans and we are starting pre-enrollment for all loan forgiveness files and possible loan discharge files it's gonna be a bit more challenging as the deadlines come him so we don't want anyone status to change especially for these programs so if you have a few minutes I really just wanted to go over those details with you but just in case again my phone number is 855-756-2002 but I do hope to hear from you soon and have a great day to opt out of future calls please call 202-908-3064…”If you notice, she messed up when giving the call back number. First time is 855-765-2002, 2nd time she says it is 855-756-2002. These people deserve the book thrown at them. I’m sure they’ve managed to scam someone by now or they would have quit. Disgusting..
I received the same message, except mine was from Tom Bean, Texas, from (430)285-5011, 1/18/22. Hailey Mendez is likely just the name being use for a while, and then it changes. I also posted a voice note on mine if anyone else would like to do the same so we can see if it’s actually the same person calling, or just the same name used. file:///var/mobile/Library/SMS/Attachments/76/06/7316B2E3-320D-409E-B4D5-6F05DCE428FF/voicemail-4918.m4a
