FRAUD: Review annual Social Security statement

Posted by Joe Levi on November 23, 2009 at 7:40 am.

Here’s another case of email fraud, this time supposedly from the Social Security Administration (SSA).

This is not really from the SSA, nor does the link take you to the SSA’s website (it takes you instead to reedasv.be, which is not an agent of the US Government).

So, you’ve been warned. If this post potentially saved you money or frustrations, feel free to leave a donation in any amount you’d like.
