Student Loan and Financial Aid Scam Defense

A borrower-safety workflow for student loan relief calls, fake servicer messages, FAFSA confusion, school payment portals, grant scams, and scholarship phishing.

Outcomes

  • Verify whether a message, caller, relief offer, scholarship, or portal is connected to an official source.
  • Protect StudentAid.gov, school email, personal email, banking, and document-sharing accounts.
  • Document suspicious fees, promises, calls, forms, login prompts, and payment requests.
  • Create a safer financial-aid workflow for borrowers and family helpers.

How The Work Runs

1

Confirm

Check the message against official StudentAid.gov and school channels before acting on relief promises or payment pressure.

2

Protect

Secure school email, personal email, FSA ID, borrower portals, banking, password manager, and recovery settings.

3

Report

Organize URLs, caller IDs, messages, payment receipts, forms, and company names for FTC, school, servicer, or platform reporting.

Deliverables

  • Student loan scam review notes.
  • Borrower account and school-email security checklist.
  • Suspicious relief offer evidence packet.
