Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel is warning consumers of a new scam that’s been reported by at least one resident to the Department’s Consumer Protection team. The complainant reportedly received a call from a scammer who insisted that a new Michigan law has passed which dissolves credit card debt as long as the credit card number, expiration date, security code and ZIP code are provided. Nessel is urging anyone who gets this call to immediately hang up as it is yet another attempt to cheat people out of their personal information and hard-earned money.
Nessel encourages Michiganders to visit the Consumer Protection page on the Department’s website to get familiar with steps everyone can take to better protect themselves. Consumer complaints can be filed online at the attorney general’s website at www.michigan.gov/ag or by calling 877-765-8388
