Minnesota just shut down a student-loan forgiveness company after finding it was accused of illegally taking money from borrowers.his office reached a settlement that requires California-based student-debt relief company, Direct Account Management, to cease its operations in the state and pay back $20,063.12 — the full amount it collected from Minnesota borrowers. This marks the 13th time Ellison has shut down a student-debt relief company in the state over fraudulent behavior.
"Minnesotans take out student loans in good faith so they can get educations that will help them better afford their lives. My office is showing once again that when companies take advantage of that good faith to rip Minnesotans off, we will come after them," Ellison said in a statement."I encourage any Minnesotan who's been preyed upon by this company or others like it to contact my office so we can hold these bad actors accountable.
Sort of modeled after the ‘mesothelioma’, ‘talcum powder’, ‘camp lejuene’ schemes…and the “see if you’re getting all your Medicare benefits’ scams? Eh?
