It's National #SlamtheScam Day! In 2022, the Federal Trade Commission received over 191,000 complaints of government imposter scams, with 14.6% losing money, totaling nearly $509 million. Protect yourself and your money by learning the telltale signs of a scam!
If you receive a suspicious call from someone claiming to be a government official, the best thing you can do is hang up the phone. The government will never request payment in gift cards or prepaid debit cards.
You can report Social Security scams to http://oig.ssa.gov and other scams to http://reportfraud.ftc.gov.
