If you are getting calls from the College Board, probably a scam.

Hey guys, this is my first post so not sure if this is the right category, sorry if it isn’t. For like the last few weeks I’ve been getting calls from a number (that appeared local), but if I called it back it said it was invalid. The call twice a day, but I have always missed them. Anyways, I answered today, and they asked to speak to my parents, I told them that they can only speak to me. They said they were the from the College Board and had important papers from me, or something like that. Immediately I knew it was scam because the College Board doesn’t operate like that, so I just told them I didn’t need them and then they hung before I could say more. I asked around, and some of my friends had gotten calls as well.

So just a warning if you are getting calls from the College Board it might be a scam. Does anybody know how they get our names/numbers though? They called me by my name, and I’m not sure how they could’ve gotten my info.
