800-413-8902

“FINAL NOTICE” correspondence urging me to contact the number provided or the $195 waiver will be revoked. No reason provided as to what the waiver is for. Instructions say to call 8004138902 during business hours of M-Fri 9am to 5pm CST [BBB Scam Type: Other] [Business: William H Keating] [Location: MD, USA- 20705]

The front of the letter states, “this notice is time sensitive. Information for the mortgagee only. Immediate response to this notice requested lender info pending.” There is also a fake United States mail postage stamp. The letter has tear sides to open. Once open, there is a letter for a final notice. The messaging is very vague. It says, “ this letter is to inform you about an important matter regarding the property at (blank) 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 our FINAL ATTEMPT TO NOTIFY YOU: 1-800-413-8902.” The top right corner lists a notice date, contact phone, and record ID. It says to “call to verify the above information read below from information.” There is no company and the bottom has a fake allocated waiver that looks like a check. The printed signature name is William H. Keating. The back of the waiver stays “Original document” with an area to endorse check. Some giveaways that this is a scam: improper capitalization of our last name, cheap at home print quality with light green and magenta text, very vague messaging, social engineering used to instill fear with urgent language, no specific information on the entity this letter originated from.
