TCF National Bank Consumer Loan Complaint

TCF National Bank Consumer loan department,

Vehicle loan Managing the loan or lease Washington

Had a privacy issue when applying for a vehicle loan through - ( TCF Bank ). I got a call from the funding specialist because apparently they did not get all of the necessary information from the vehicle dealership. I was asked many questions over the phone, many of which were on other parts of the application. I was okay with this. However, there was a document missing that required my signature and my driver 's license was too dark so they needed another copy. I was emailed the document that needed to be filled out and signed. All good so far. Now comes the issue. They do not use secure email and for convenience sake, they allow a text to their manager to send the documents in. I was n't happy with either choice, so I sent it in by text because I did not have scan capability readily available. I sent a picture of the completed documents to the finance institution along with a copy of my driver 's license. Got a text back minutes later saying, wrong number. This upset me. I called the finance specialist back, and after a little research, he figured out he gave me the wrong number. I just sent a credit application with my SSN, DOB, employer, income, a copy of my driver 's license, and all the information needed for credit fraud. A finance institution did this to me. This upsets me greatly and according to the finance institution, there is nothing they can do but call the individual back that I sent my information to and ask him to delete it. This makes me feel so much more safe. I just put my information out to be used or sold to a complete stranger.
