Jeremy graduated from college two years ago with a degree in communications. He landed a great job making $40,000 a year. He plans to save up enough money so he can purchase a home with 100% down. Last week, Jeremy received a call from the bank telling him that he was late making payments on his loan. The problem is, Jeremy doesn't have a loan with that bank, or any other bank, because he is debt-free. 1. What problem does Jeremy most likely have, and how would you help him resolve this issue? 2. Predict the consequences if Jeremy ignores this issue. 3. What rights does Jeremy have in protecting himself? 4. Is there a way he could avoid this situation in the future? If so, how?
