Town Hall News September 29th, 2025

Good morning!

New Scam alert for anyone with college aged kids.

Scammers are claiming to be affiliated with the PSAT, SAT, and ACT standardized tests.

The caller says a household student requested test and college prep materials at their school, which will be mailed out after obtaining payment information as collateral. 

The College Board has indicated that they “only make calls to students and their families in response to student-generated inquiries and/or to provide students and families with information about a test or program for which the student registered” (collegeboard.org).

Please be advised that the administrator of the PSAT, SAT, and ACT does not make unsolicited calls requesting payment or personal information, such as credit card number and Social Security number. Hang up on these calls.

Report scams to the Vermont Attorney General's Consumer Assistance Program at ago.vermont.gov/cap or by phone at 1-800-649-2424. For more information about this scam and scam prevention resources visit the CAP Connection blog: https://blog.uvm.edu/cap
