Student loan “forgiveness” form asked for too much

A message promised loan forgiveness if I completed a form with detailed personal questions. I closed it. Where do people double-check official education finance sites?

Start from official bookmarks or typed URLs, never from unsolicited links. If unsure, call the number on your real loan portal.

I assume urgency + unusual forms = pause. Freezing credit is separate if you already submitted data — follow official bureau steps.

Sharing the pattern here without the link is enough for others to watch for.
