I was mailed a card about a car warranty. I recently purchased a car prior to the mail being received. I called the number they gave me and they said it would be a recurring monthly payment for 18 months. I thought it was a legit warranty as I did just purchase a new car. Turns out they are a scam and do not actually offer such services and they just used my card info to take money from me without an exchange of service.

Just bought a 2023 Kia sportage a year ago and the last few months these letters at least 6 of them have come as letters to my address. They are marked call lmmediately. Extremely urgent and time sensitive. They sent me insurance cards and telling me that their records indicate that my manufacturer warranty may have expired. Call now to activate. I kept 2 copies of the letters. My car warranty is good for 4 more years. I checked. They are trying in these letters that I need to act now and assunging that I will panic and call them to get their insurance. Nationwide shouldn’t be using these tatacktics to trick people to get insurance. I called them and they hung up on me. I’m a senior citizen and they are feeding on people like me. Can you help me please

Repeated 2017 Dodge Journey Scams

This will be the 5th time they've reached out to me ever since 2022 of late last year. I kindly asked them to stop after I confirmed to them the first time I said that I never owned a 2017 Dodge Journey. They responded and "deleted" my info and sent it back to me by mail several more times this year. What makes this all the more suspicious is that they don't have a return address, website, email address nor any other method of contacting them aside from the big bold numbers they plaster on their front page. Actually their "return address" says:
"2017 Dodge Journey"
"Official Business"
"Penalty for Private Use is $300"

Sadly it took a while for me to realize that this was all a scam. They're hiding under a company name to carry out their scams apparently by getting me to give them some personal info.

Since purchasing a new car in April. I have received repeated letters saying I have no vehicle protection plan, thus making me liable for repairs. Attached to the letter is a registration fee voucher. Though it says it is not a check, my elderly husband with dementia keeps insisting that I need to sign it for redemption. I have checked with my dealership and insurance company who assure me this letter is not from them. A 2nd phone number given is 844 707 7033.
