Equifax Mortgage Scam Calls – Spot the Red Flags! - +1 888-899-1126 ((888) 899-1126)

A woman with an Indian accent inquired about a client of mine, possessing their name and social security number. However, she failed to provide an address or phone number to contact the client, raising suspicions of a fraudulent call. I withheld information due to confidentiality concerns and will warn others about this potential scam

A message from someone purporting to be from Equifax mortgage solutions, with a strong Indian accent, prompted me to investigate the number further, finding numerous comments online indicating potential fraud.

A voicemail transcription from the caller, who had an Indian accent, stated that they were from Michael Fox Market Solutions regarding a pending application with Beatrice Mortgage Corporation, requesting verification of a Kohls credit card account, and asked to call back at 888-899-1126, providing a case ID number, but the entire message seemed suspicious.

Our experience involved a call from a heavily accented individual claiming to be 'Renee' from India, who wanted to facilitate a three-way call with our current mortgage company, raising red flags about the authenticity of the call.

The situation persist even in 2022, same individual, same number, same excuse, and same situation, we are also in the process of getting a mortage, which raises the question of how she aquired this informations??

This number remains active and is still being used for spam calls, employing the same schemes mentioned in previous comments.

A female with a heavy accent said her name was VIVICA and she was calling to verify information with my current mortgage company, but i googled the number and found out it was a scam, so i told her not to call me back

Similar experiance to others, recieved a call from someone with an indian accent, claiming to need account verification, i provided the last 4 digits of my ssn, and then they put me on hold before disconnecting, i contacted my financer and they said it seemed legit, but i've placed a credit freeze on my accounts just in case, will update if it turns out to be a scam, alot of red flags.

A concerning call was made to me in the UK, claiming to be from Easyjet and seeking to verify my card details to avoid a cancellation fee; it's likely my details were compromised in the 2019-2020 Easyjet data breach.

I have had a similar experience with a scammer attempting to verify sensitive information to update credit records, which is disturbing, given that they have access to my credit information and knowledge of my financing activities

My suspicions were aroused when the caller attempted to conference in my current mortgage company, claiming it was at the request of the new mortgage company. To verify the legitimacy of the call, I hung up and contacted the new mortgage company, only to find they had not requested any such information. A good rule of thumb is to ask the caller to call back in 20 minutes, then verify with the relevant company to ensure the request is genuine. In my case, this confirmed my initial suspicion that the call was a scam. Red flags included the cold call and the attempt to verify my identity by conferencing in my current mortgage company, a tactic that can be easily exploited by scammers.
