I have no idea what I was thinking.
This is not even remotely like myself and I should have known better.
I'm so ashamed right now.
Anyway, I tried to refinance my student loans with an agency.
I wasn't in default, or had any problems with payments, but the offer given was something I thought would be best for me.
Consolidation. A student loan forgiveness program that will soon end after Obama leaves office. How could I lose, right?
I gave out my social security number, birth date, routing and account number of my bank, address, phone number, personal contacts, and I also signed about 15 digital signatures with online forms that I didn't bother to read.
I just tapped the screen on my tablet where it said to while talking on the phone with this representative.
I guess the scam is that they offer loan forgiveness but just put them on forbearance and then disappear after a few years while receiving payments I agreed upon.
My FSA ID information has been breached since I received a notice by them that my password has changed.
I looked up the phone number given to me by personal mail and it turned out to be bogus.
I'll call the U.S. Department of Education on Monday and see what can be done from my egregious mistake on this.
If anyone is good with the law or knows of someone that's experienced in student loans, please private message me.
I really could use some advice on what I've done.
As for now, I'm fairly sure I gave out my complete identity to these people.
Dear Lord.
I should be shot just on general principle for being so naive.
