#AARP covid-19 scam

AARP: Elderly Residents Target of COVID-19 Scams

In addition to stimulus check scams, con-artists are also offering corona virus testing, sometimes even going door to door, in an attempt to steal your health insurance or Medicare information to submit false claims or to steal your money. Scammers are impersonating the CDC and even offering fake cures or vaccines.

AARP: Scammers Are Trying to Take Your COVID-19 Stimulus Dollars

Among the scams reported so far – Imposters claiming to be from government agencies asking for personal information by phone, text and email so they can give you your money; Text messages and emails asking for people to click on a link to get their $1,000 assistance check; and Phone calls asking for bank information to deposit your “Trump Dollars.”
