Another misleading robo call announcing a new program for Federal student loan reduced monthly payments and possibly complete loan forgiveness. What surprised me about this recording was that not only did they change the key press options to respond to their offer (9 and 5 instead of previous 1 and 5) but they put the negative "opt out" response first ("...press 9 to decline this offer...or press 5 to find if you qualify..." Usually the positive response is announced first, and repeated several times.

Their "shotgun" approach to making mass phone calls, hoping to find a few people who owe student loans, and their total disregard of the Do Not Call list certainly tells us a lot about their business ethic, doesn't it?

Here is a transcript of the call:

[male voice] "Attention. This message is for anyone stuck with Federal student loan debt. If you have ten thousand dollars or more in Federal student loans and are having trouble making the payments, you are eligible for a new government forgiveness program. Press 9 now to decline the offer or press 5 to find out if you qualify to have your loan payments cut in half or in some cases, completely wiped clean. Press 5 now for your free eligibility check."
