1. I do not own a car.
2. I have NEVER owned a 2014 Ford of mystery model.
3. The ”deadline” to respond was May 1. I received it last week.
4. There is NO business name or address anywhere on this “important” letter.
The last time I owned a Ford was the 1995 Mustang I bought in 1996. Well, correction. I traded that in for a 1995 Taurus two years later. I owned that until 2007. I haven’t had any car since either late 2010 or 2011 after moving to this house. So, DONT FREAK OUT IF YOU GET A LETTER LIKE THIS! IT’S PURE PHISH BAIT.

@rakski I just don't see how, though, without a company name, the wrong vehicle info and the rest, why would you think it was legit?? Seriously, are there other people who haven't had cars for over a decade who think they need to tell these people they got the wrong person? That only opens you up for a lifetime of increased spam calls and mail.

It’s always good to stay alert and not let these fake threats freak you out.
