The Tennessee Attorney General’s Office Division of Consumer Affairs is warning homeowners about a home warranty scam. Letters received by Tennessee homeowners urge them to purchase a home warranty, claiming the current home warranty “may be expiring or may have already expired.” Each letter contains the same claim, even if the homeowner has never purchased a home warranty. The letter also heavily implies an affiliation with the homeowner’s mortgage company and the “county deed records” office. The people responsible for these letters are in no way affiliated with the homeowner’s mortgage company or the Register of Deeds, the office says. Anyone who has received such a letter can file a complaint here.
