This is a SCAM Sallie Mae number! Do not give them ANY personal information (like social security #, job, or bank account #). The REAL Sallie Mae already has all of this information and will never ask for it over the phone! They will harass you constantly with "overdue payment" lies. Hang up on them immediately! Call the actual Sallie Mae customer service to see if your loan has any missed payments or problems because the information that this scammer phone number gives you to scare you into sharing personal info, is all lies! The REAL Sallie Mae direct phone number is 1-800-422-5543. Only talk to Sallie Mae from the number that I listed, which is available on the direct Sallie Mae website. Be weary of any emails you get from people claiming to be from Sallie Mae too! These are very skilled scammers that can replicate what an actual Sallie Mae email looks like, in order to trick you. If ever in doubt about the authenticity of an email or phone number regarding your personal financial information, call Sallie Mae directly!
