Variations on a Scheme
Weve heard reports that a variation on an old scam is making the rounds.
It sounds like this:
Unsuspecting person who answers the phone: Hello?
Scammer who is calling: Maam, Im calling from the government.Were
about to send out national medical cards for the new Affordable Care
Act. Youre one of the lucky people to get yours first, so I just need to
confirm your name, address and phone number. Oh, and your bank account
number, too
This kind of scam pops up anytime theres a big change in a government
policy, or when a topic is in the news. Scammers use peoples uncertainty
to try to get them to reveal personal information. From there, its not much
of a leap to identity theft, with scammers racking up bogus charges on your
credit cards, opening new credit cards in your name, even taking out loans
in your name.
You can protect yourself. If you get a call asking for your information, hang
up. Its a scam. Government organizations and the legitimate groups you do
business with have the information they need. Theyll never call to ask you
for it.
But do me a favor: If you get a call like this, report it to the FTC. The phone
number on your caller IDif there is oneor the name or location of the
calleris helpful information to investigators and professional fraud
fighters. You can report itonlineor on the phone, toll-free, at 1-877-FTC-
HELP. Your report might help stop the scammers, and it could help keep
others from being scammed.
