Received “Final Notice” letter from a private lender with a fake check for $199. There is no company name, address, email on the letter nor the envelope. There is only a phone number listed in saying to”call immediately. This is the final attempt to notify you.”

Received mail with check for $199.00. It is using our mtg lender’s name only by saying we have a mtg with them. They want us to call, there is no info other than a phone number, not who or what they want

This is a USPS mail delivery with very little info other than it is urgent to call the phone no. Provided. The letter had my full name address and mortgage lender name, along with some instrument they call an “allocated waiver” for $199.00 made out to me & my address location. I a surprised the USPS delivered this without a return address. The USPS mailing permit is claimed to be No. ***** with a delivery zip code of *****, as printed on the front of this letter.

Received a letter that looked important. It says on the return address area "THIS NOTICE IS TIME SENSITIVE: SENT ON 7/14/2025 INFORMATION FOR THE MORTGAGEE ONLY. It also says on the front of the envelope IMMEDIATE RESPONSE TO THIS NOTICE REQUESTED & Lender Info: Wells Fargo Bk Na. It is addressed to me at my home address. Inside it says FINAL NOTICE, and puts the Notice Date: 7/14/2025, Contact Phone: 1-888-801-8190, Record ID: ***********  It urges me to call their number for an urgent matter. And a fake check for $199.00 is enclosed that says below it "Not all consumers have previous coverage. Not affiliated with Wells Faro BK NA. This is not a Check."

William Barr reached out asking for an estimate for a roof replacement near my business and sent a fake check worth 10K+ to have me order materials. He also signed a contract and texted/emailed back and forth multiple times. They would always say "Ok Fine"

An individual calling himself Milton Warren asked me via email to tutor his son.

He said he's send a check for $350 as a prepayment.

A check arrived for the amount of $1881.

He requested I return the balance. I sent $760 by Venmo before I realized it was a scam.

The check then bounced,

The check was written from National Credit Systems Inc. "Your best collections solution."

PO Box 67228, Marietta GA 30006

The check was written through Pinnacle Bank.

MAKE SURE CHECKS CLEAR BEFORE REFUNDING SOMEONE.
