We are sending this reminder because parents and/or guardians of children who have recently taken an SAT or PSAT exam have been receiving scam calls requesting personal information, including a credit card number, to mail the test results.
Additional tips about how to protect yourself from SAT test-related scams can be found on the Better Business Bureau website and below:
• Always be wary of unsolicited callers: If you receive a random call from someone asking for payment, research their organization before sharing any personal information.
• Double check with your child: If someone claims they're calling because of a service your child requested, hang up and check with your child first.
• Understand the College Board's practices: The College Board will never ask you for your bank or credit card information over the phone or through email.
• Don't give your financial information to strangers: Never agree to pay a stranger with any form of payment for a purchase you didn't initiate.
