Title

To accept the customer’s statement in good faith, the duly authorized representative of the creditor must be alert to the circumstances surrounding the credit and, if in
*possession
of any information that would cause a prudent person not to accept the statement without inquiry, must have investigated and be satisfied that the statement is
truthful. Among the facts which would require such investigation are receipt of the statement through the mail or from a third party.

This form must be retained by the lender for three years after the credit is extinguished.
