BBB Warning about Fake Mortgage Letters

January 27, 2025

Beware of Fake Mortgage Letters!

Have you received a letter that looks like it's from your mortgage company about renewing your home warranty?

Don't fall for this scam!

These letters are often deceptive attempts to sell you a home warranty.

Here's how to spot the red flags:

  • "Not affiliated" disclaimer: Look for small print disclaimers.
  • "Check" appearance: Be wary of letters that resemble checks.
  • High-pressure tactics: Don't let anyone pressure you into immediate action.

Protect yourself:

  • Verify directly: Contact your lender using information from your official mortgage documents.
  • Never provide financial info: Don't give out your credit card or bank details over the phone.
