Texas UCC Statement Services: Mail Scam

August 6, 2024

The Office of the Attorney General (OAG) has recently issued an alert regarding a deceptive and unethical practice by Texas UCC Statement Services. Numerous complaints have been filed against this company for sending misleading mailers to collect money unnecessarily from consumers.

 

Key Points:

  • Misleading Mailers: Texas UCC Statement Services is sending mailers that claim a fee (usually $90) is owed for documentation on an existing loan. They misuse disclaimers to create the illusion that the mail is from an official government agency.
     
  • Not Official: This email is not from an official government agency and has no affiliation with Moody Bank or any loan payments owed to us.
     
  • Customer Reports: We have received reports from our customers about these fraudulent mailers.

 

What to Do:

  • Verify Authenticity: If you receive such a mailer, it is crucial to verify its authenticity. Remember, official communications will clearly state their affiliation.
     
  • Report the Scam: If you receive a suspicious statement, report it immediately. Call the Texas Attorney General’s Consumer Protection Division toll-free at 1-800-621-0508 or visit this link to file a complaint online.
     
  • Reach Out for Help: If you have any questions or need assistance with documentation, please contact your banker. We are here to help.

 

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
