Have you ever received a call from someone claiming to be from the Social Security Administration? Learn how to spot a Social Security scam call and what to do if you receive one.

Social Security fraud is widespread, and it’s also a lucrative business. Many seniors have received calls that appear at first to be someone from a government agency. These fraudsters might use intimidation tactics to get information out of Social Security beneficiaries. 

The Federal Trade Commission has put out a video detailing what seniors can do to stay safe from Social Security scam calls. The first line of defense? Hang up the phone. This simple step can keep your information safe.

NORA is working to protect Social Security benefits on behalf of American seniors. We’re fighting to get seniors the benefits they deserve. The Guaranteed 3% COLA for Seniors Act will ensure that beneficiaries receive a fairer cost-of-living adjustment every year. And we’re pushing Congress to not only pass this legislation but to make this 3% COLA retroactive to 2010.
