  • They say they’re from the Social Security Administration and your benefits will end unless you pay.
  • They say they’re from the IRS and you owe taxes.
  • They say you need to give your Medicare number to get a new card.

STOP! These are all scams.

Government agencies won’t call, email, or text you and ask for money or personal information. Only a scammer will do that.

Report the scam to the FTC at ReportFraud.ftc.gov.
