I have been receiving offers in the mail to consolidate my student loan. Some of them even offer total loan forgiveness. Each of these offers lists the total amount of my student loan. Most troubling however, is how close they are to the exact amount - off by a XXXX dollars or so, but more or less spot on. 

I spoke with my service provider ( XXXX XXXX ) and they said they are not allowed to disclose or sell my financial information. This still does not explain how my financial information has essentially become public.
