Remember to carefully check email addresses ACTING to be from a Department official.
Scammers don’t need to hack an account to pretend to be someone that you trust. LOOK CAREFULLY at the email address.
Be especially careful when the person says they can’t take a call and only want to email or text.
We NEVER ask for donations or other assistance by use of a gift card or other than our secure services on our secure website.

Angel
