As Stimulus Checks Go Out, Beware Scammers, U.S. Officials Warns | Post News Group

“There are definitely scams where people are pretending to be a government agency or your family member or somebody that you're in love with. They sometimes have just enough information about you to make it feel like it’s real, or they try to threaten you and make it feel really urgent. They say that you’re going to lose your social security number if you don’t pay them, which is not going to happen, or that someone that you love is going to be in trouble,” says Leach.
