FARM FUNDING
Unsolicited mortgage and home-warranty mail can appear legitimate while attempting to prompt a response or payment. Verify the sender independently before providing information or money.
Signs to Watch For
Watch for fine-print disclosures, notices resembling invoices or payment requests, and language designed to create urgency.
Example Scenario
A homeowner may receive an urgent-looking notice about a home-related service and be pressured to call a listed number or provide personal and financial information.
How to Protect Yourself
Verify communications independently, use trusted lender contact information, confirm phone numbers yourself, pause before acting, safeguard sensitive information and securely dispose of suspicious mail.
Stay Informed, Stay Protected
Approach unsolicited mortgage-related communications cautiously. A quick verification step can reduce unnecessary financial and information-security risk.
