About every 8 seconds a senior becomes victim of a Social Security scam in the United States.
Millions of scam calls are made very day, all designed to steal your private information or rob you of your money.
Any of the following warning signs spell SCAM.......
If a caller.......
- Threatens to suspend your Social Security number, even if they have part or all of your Social Security number
- Warns of arrest or legal action
- Demands or requests immediate payment
- Requires payment by gift card, prepaid debit card, internet currency, or by mailing cash
- Pressures you for personal information
- Requests secrecy
- Threatens to seize your bank account
- Promises to increase your Social Security benefit
- Tries to gain your trust by providing fake "documentation," false "evidence," or the name of a real government official
...it is a SCAM!
