these operators are such bullshit, why cant the police lock them up?

Another number - 1-888-714-4945.

Bought my Jeep less than 3 weeks ago and already getting good warned that my warranty is about to or may have already expired. REALLY.......

1-800-796-5105 1-800-264-3023 1-888-714-4945 1-877-223-5210

Thanks for sharing your experience. I received the same mail after purchasing a car. Now, let me throw it in trash.

I recently purchased a 10 year old Toyota and already receive these notices in the last week! I was getting worried as to what is the whole extended warranty scheme bah. I am so glad I googled and found your post on this, thanks!

I knew right away that this must be fraud. But two questions, why I do research on this and landed here: 1. How the hell do they get the addresses and other data? 2. How the hell can they try to fool you with the Coat of Arm of the US department of State (in my case) without getting locked up?

Moe: Search me. Haven't a clue how they find out. I presume there's some kind of public-facing database, maybe on a pay-by-use basis. I'd have to say after a good year since I wrote this article, I still get a mailing about once a month (for either of our cars), and possibly a phone call every now and then. For the latter, it depends on how busy I am whether I string them along for a few minutes to waste their time.

Cheers, Julian

Wow! I have been getting hammered with these too... Googled the number and stumbled upon this. I did correspond with *(1-888-35-8636) and I did call it to tell them that I did not own the truck with the "warranty experation notice" and an old F** guy named "Mark" said he "would take me off of the file". Now, I have heard that a new scam that tries to get you to say "Yes" can further compromise ones identity, leaving it liable to theft.... I had no choice but to confirm the "Customer ID #" and state my name when he asked. He said I have been removed. If I get one more thing I will be in touch with good attorneys in my network. Just sayin... Thanks for posting this whoever you are!!!

Thanks for the information. I got three of these things in the mail and thought they might come from the car company, but then I noticed there were three different phone nos, so I googled and came across your post. Thank you! To the recycling bin I go!

Thanks for information.Got a card in the mail telling me my warranty about to expire. spam

I got the little card in the mail two days ago and finally called this morning. What really made me mad was that the representative ("Jeremiah") wouldn't tell me the name of the company, and just kept asking me how I would like to pay. Ridiculous. That's when I hung up! The number was 1-888-714-4945

Thanks for the information. I got these spam a month later when I got my car.

I also received two of these green and yellow cards, feels wired. Thank you for this post! BTW, two of the tele#: 1-888-714-4945 1-877-545-2366

I just got the first of what will probably be hundreds of these cards saying my warranty is about to expire. How did they find out somebody asked. Its obvious your state's Department of Motor Vehicles is selling lists of newly registered cars. Its the only way they could have known about my 12 year Pontiac that I just registered 12 days ago here in Kentucky.

Another of these numbers +877-545-2366

I bought a vehicle recently, and a postcard from the scamming entity at (888) 714-4945 (identified by AK and Terrell Dismuke above) postally arrived for me today. The firm identified itself as "Repair Service Center" on the postcard. Kudos to it for getting almost all of the details correct and not including a bogus table.

My wife still occasionally receives notices from these scamming entities for a vehicle that she bought over a decade ago and recently sold to another party.

I wonder if Ripoff Report (http://www.ripoffreport.com/) has reports on these entities?

I received one in the mail today. Phone number 1-888-395-8636 Post marked Springfield, MO.
No company name. It states that this is there final attempt to reach me but it’s the first notice I have received. This is definitely a scam!

My best guess is that, the DMV (the official place, where you actually transferring your car's title) is selling or neglectfully NOT protecting your identity/information. I recently moved to another state and transferred my car's title. Two weeks later, I'm getting phone calls and those "Vehicle Alert Notice" scam letters. Very annoying at best. And if you think about it, scary at the same time. Since you need to get your vehicle documentation, license plates, etc (probably pay for it) and your "private" information is out there to use by anyone, who's interested scamming you.

they search state databases of new car regs. totall illegal.

Got three this past week. Same bull about a platinum and powertrain coverage. Each had different phone numbers: 800-827-2926, 888-582-6870, 877-545-2366.

Good luck!

received one of these cards also with a phone# 877-376-2402

Have been getting these cards for years.... Latest tel. # is the one posted by Nan Fan.

Since I got a postcard through the mail, I'll see if the postal inspectors can get them for mail fraud.

I just started getting the mailings (1-877-376-2402) but I have gotten the phone calls. When they call I ask for the company name and then the caller's full name. When they question why I am asking for their full name I simply tell them that I need their full name for the harassment lawsuit I am filing with my attorney and "oh, by the way, this conversation is being recorded for evidence". I always manage to hear the click when they hang up. I have also used that for other telemarketers which call even though I am on the Do Not Call list.

I got a letter too. I knew it looked fishy. Damn scammers. Glad I looked up the number. Thank you so much.

Got one of these urgent postcards today 5-5-18 saying I have 5 days to respond. Yet this so called offer expires 5-15-18. It appears they don't know how to count. No company name anywhere but it has a prepaid postage stamp from Sacramento, CA. The phone number listed is 1-877-376-2402 which I did NOT call. Thanks to whoever started this thread.

I've been getting numerous phone calls from these jerks, sometimes twice a day. They don't speak good English and are hard to understand. When I ask for their name and the name of the company, they hang up. Then a few days ago, I received a postcard saying "THIS IS YOUR FINAL NOTICE." with my name, address, type of auto and a customer ID number for all to see. It says to call 1-877-376-2402 It says to call between 8:00 am and 7:00 pm CST. So I'm assuming it came from somewhere in the CST zone, although the Postage Paid Stamp says Sacramento, CA.

Have received at least one call a week for the last 4 weeks and several notices. All regarding my Ford Fusion. The last Ford product I owned was a 1989 Crown Vic. The number on the card 1 877 376 2402

Also got a card with number 1 877 376 2402 on it。

I CAME IN HERE IN THE HOPES THAT I WOUKD FIND SOMEONE WHO HAS ACTUALLY USED THEM. All I’m reading is a bunch of people writing that they received a post card and so it MUST be a scam. I received it too, but I honestly need a service like this that they say they are offering ,....im just reluctant to pay the upfront fee they insist must Ben made before any coverage can start 1000 driven Miles later . Can anyone tell me if they atleast live up to what they claim ? Full Warranty on a used vehicle for a monthly rate .

We got a post card from them for a car we do not own------call 1-877-3746-2402---scam------Our new car is still under warranty----

Yeah, I got one of their little "postcards" in the mail this morning - for a Hyundai - which I don't own, and will never own. I was feeling a little estrogen challenged this morning and decided to call and mess with this woman who answered the phone. She kept trying to get me to give her the claim number on the postcard, and I kept saying, "A Hyundai? Why for the love of GOD a Hyundai. Man, I am way cooler than a Hyundai. Did you know that I have never owned a foreign-produced vehicle? As a loyal Ford Motor Company customer, I find this just beyond insulting."

She finally cuts me off and tells me the postcard is meaningless. They're soliciting customers for extended warranties.

I feel my true purpose in life rush to the fore. "Ma'am," I say, "Do you realize that by sending out these false notices that you are scaring people into thinking they are the victims of identity theft? I'm not sure that's legal. I mean, I'd have to do some research into the local laws and statues here, but I feel fairly confident that at the very least there is some fraud going on here--"

CLICK!

And THAT is how a vegetarian enjoys SPAM for breakfast!

I had got one of these in the mail yesterday and decided to Google about it. I had a feeling it was a scam. Thanks!!

I think we should some of us should get together and form a website to combat these people directly. If we can find (by subpeona) which call centers they use and (if they are in the US or UK) subpeona them for their phone records we could class-action them or maybe just disseminate the info and each of us sue them in small claims (in the US it's $500-$1500/call if you are on the no call list).

I've found the only info is on the cards they send, which is a Sacramento CA bulk mail permit number of #1935. I've tried to get my local post office to tell me who owns it (I'm in WI, USA) but they won't give out that info w/o a subpeona. I know they might get my info from DMV or even the Honda. They could also get it if you stay in a hotel. Most know your name and the make/model and license plate of your car.

oddly they called just now and i got to the sales person. He (Arthur) said he was from Red Auto Protection. Here is their site. https://redautoprotection.com/
I will be looking into trying to get their pone/call center records. The call was initiated by a female that spoke with a mid-east accent so their centers may not even be in the US.

Agreed! Let's get some money from these guys. I called and they are trying to get me to give a credit card over the phone. They said if I hung up I would lose the rate and that they couldn't email me any details until after I purchased.

I have made it my goal to take these people down, one lawsuit or multiple prank calls at a time. Hint: it is really fun to prank call them and mess with the coverage.

Thank you for the info. I have gotten several of these as well since my auto purchase.
I totally agree that the police should investigate.....at least mail fraud department!

We just got one of the postcards in our mail. No company name or address but did display a postage permit #1935 from Sacramento, CA. They think we have a 2012 Toyota, which we don't. But if I were to call, I'm sure they'd be happy to "warranty" whatever car I tell them we have. I have gotten calls from these scammers before and sometimes will make up information to see how long I can waste their time on the phone.
