This scam is on my mind right now because I’ve gotten seven letters in the last few weeks urging me to renew my car warranty, and a friend received a phone call devoted to the same.  All they ask is for you to call and give your credit card and personal information and your warranty will be extended.

Problems:

1. The letters and calls don’t come from your dealer.
2. Your dealer probably doesn’t even have the option to extend anyway.
3. You’re about to get taken for some potentially serious cash for nothing.
