Traveling online safely

10 years ago

It’s tax season which means that scammers want your refund! When you file your taxes, keep your Social Security number safe. Don’t put sensitive documents in your mailbox or leave them unattended in your car.

If you file online, use a secure site and don’t transmit sensitive info via wifi, particularly in a public place.    Be a fraud fighter! If you can spot a scam, you can stop a scam. Call local law enforcement or the AARP Fraud Watch Network to report a scam or for more information on scam and fraud prevention.
