Statewide Iowa — More than 400-thousand Iowans will have to resume paying off their student loan debt in October. Nathan Nash, an attorney with the Federal Trade Commission, warns scammers are hoping to capitalize.
Every US government website ends with dot-gov. Nash says the Federal Trade Commission recently stopped scammers claiming they could get student loans forgiven — for a fee.
The defendants in the recent student loan scam claimed be from the US Department of Education and falsely promised to lower or eliminate student loan payments.
