Extended warranty scams
Some scammers will call car owners claiming to be representatives of a car dealership or manufacturer and try to sell you an extended warranty in an attempt to get your personal information. These callers may know your name, address and even your car’s make and model, making them seem legitimate.
These scammers may tell you that your warranty is about to expire or try to scare you into purchasing a service contract. Never give out your personal or financial information to a stranger on the phone, and file a report with the FCC if you think you’ve been a victim of a potential scam.
