        Here’s a Snopes review of what I think is the same specific topic.

        It mentions nothing about these being orphan support payments, but rather, these being possibly incorrectly typed SSNs that resulted in their recordkeeping systems assuming, based on the information tied to those SSNs, that the borrowers were, say, 11 years old, when in actuality they were not, and the SSNs had just been inputted incorrectly, even if all other borrower information was accurate.

        They also didn’t stop these funds, as they were already given out. They’re simply “reviewing” them.

          they tell a thousand lies in the time it takes to fact check one. We tell one lie, and suddenly every complaint we’ve ever held against them is invalidated because we’re liars.

          I think it’s obvious how absurd this is.
