This bogus business letter, dated 2026 (no month or year, and no business address) attempts to scare me into calling a phone number, 888-404-4504, to renew a home warranty it claims that I have with WORLD WIDE FIN SERVICES. The letter is signed by Vicky Mercer, Program Director, Home Warranty Division. The letter is headed "Final Notice." It states that "This notice is to inform you that the property's home address, at [my actual home address] secured by WORLD WIDE FIN SERVICES, may be expiring or has already expired. Our records indicate that you have not contacted us yet to get your Home Warranty up to date." It further states that "We reserve the right to revoke your eligibility for service coverage after the Expiration date of 3/05/2026." The instructions are to call the telephone number during stated hours, Central Standard Time. @media (min-width:768px){.css-1w6dufj{-webkit-box-flex:0;-webkit-flex-grow:0;-ms-flex-positive:0;flex-grow:0;-webkit-flex-basis:auto;-ms-flex-preferred-s [BBB Scam Type: Phishing] [Business: Home Warranty Division] [Location: NY, USA- 14760]

Letter pretends to be an affiliate of a known mortgage lender and insinuates there is a home warranty for the property address to which letter was sent. Scammer claims FINAL NOTICE and asks to call immediately with a past-due deadline. There is a Home Protection ID at the bottom of the letter with sensitive information: Name, Address, coverage status "pending" and agent name of: VICKY MERCER, 4EVER HOME WARRANTY, 1-888-404-4504. Spouse received the same scam letter. [BBB Scam Type: Phishing] [Business: 4Ever Home Warranty] [Location: WA, USA- 98592]
