Often, scammers will claim they are compromised because of suspicious, improper, or illegal activity.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sometimes, fraudsters will take an alternate approach and pretend to help victims by offering to increase their benefits, protect their assets, or deal with identity theft.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To resolve this, these criminals will demand payments or victims\u2019 social security numbers, threatening them with arrest, fines, or suspension of their social security account if they fail to provide them.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Scammers who make these calls will often use a threatening tone of voice and language to intimidate their victims into taking immediate action. Scam social security calls often target vulnerable senior citizens, particularly those who depend on social security benefits.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Besides phone calls, social security scams can also take place via <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.ssa.gov\/inspector-general-warns-public-about-widespread-social-security-scam-texts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">text messages<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> asking recipients to call back in order to avoid a fine or arrest.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Social security scam phone calls are just one nuisance call of the many types that exist. Other scams involve standard robocallers, telemarketing callers, and fraud callers who impersonate IRS agents asking for bank details.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Social-Security-Phone-Call-Scams\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How do Social Security Phone Call Scams Work?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Scammers make money from \u201cfines\u201d or payments that their frightened victims make in order to save themselves from the \u201clegal action\u201d they believe they could face.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If this wasn\u2019t suspicious enough, fraudsters often demand that <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/faq.ssa.gov\/en-us\/Topic\/article\/KA-10018\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">payments<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> be made via retail gift cards, prepaid debit cards, wire transfers, internet currency, or mailing cash.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If they obtain a victim\u2019s social security number, this personal data can help scammers \u201chijack\u201d victims\u2019 social security accounts and open new ones in order to file fraudulent tax returns and steal social security benefits.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Social-Security-Scammers-Obtain-Personal-Data\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How do Social Security Scammers Obtain Personal Data?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s common for fraudsters to legally acquire victims\u2019 personal phone numbers through data broker websites, or companies that collect and sell information about individuals.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Besides phone numbers, data brokers also collect all sorts of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/help.joindeleteme.com\/hc\/en-us\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">personally identifiable information (PII<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">): from names to ages, social security numbers, addresses, photos, email addresses, details about a person\u2019s marital status, occupation, relatives, and social media accounts.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Being a data broker involves trawling online public records, social media profiles, and self-reported information online for as many personal details as possible and using them to build personal profiles.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/help.joindeleteme.com\/hc\/en-us\/\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you want to learn more about what being a data broker involves and why they are problematic, check out our Help Center blog.&nbsp;<\/span><\/i><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Protect-Yourself-Social-Security-Call-Scam\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to Protect Yourself from a Social Security Call Scam<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Hang Up Immediately<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you suspect you\u2019ve answered a phone call from a social security scammer, the best thing to do is cut the call off as soon as possible. Learning to recognize the intimidating tone of voice scammers take with their victims is important because this is an immediate indicator that the call is a scam.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a general rule, it\u2019s also helpful to treat all unwanted calls as suspicious and not to return any unwanted calls.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The SSA <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.consumer.ftc.gov\/blog\/2018\/12\/fake-calls-about-your-ssn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">guarantees<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> it will never call people to ask for their social security number, pay money, verify bank information, or threaten benefits. It also recommends that if you receive a questionable call, you should report it to the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/oig.ssa.gov\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Office of the Inspector General<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> straight away. And if you have suffered a financial loss, the SSA encourages victims not to hide it out of embarrassment, because the story could help prevent others from falling for similar scams.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Set up an Online SSA Account<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you set up an <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ssa.gov\/myaccount\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">online account<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> with the SSA, you will be able to log in immediately and see whether there are any problems with your account yourself. The SSA has <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ssa.gov\/myaccount\/security.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">extra security mechanisms<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in place such as two-factor identification to protect against potential identity fraud online.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Ask For Advice&nbsp;<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The SSA recommends that before making any large purchases or important financial decisions<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2014such as wiring money\u2014you should solicit the advice of a trusted friend or family member.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This way, if a scam is about to take place, there\u2019s a higher chance another individual can intervene early and prevent it.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Stay Up To Date on Scams<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s also useful to read up on social security phone scam victim\u2019s stories in <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/business\/2021\/07\/09\/social-security-scam-call\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">news articles<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> so that you can stay clued up on fraudster tactics. This will help you recognize these common behaviors easily in the event you ever receive a social security administration scam call.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5. Activate Call-Blocking Features<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most Android phones come with built-in Google <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/support.google.com\/phoneapp\/answer\/3459196?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">caller ID &amp; Spam Protection<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to show caller IDs from calls outside of your contact base and flag potential spam calls.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For Apple users, the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/support.apple.com\/en-us\/HT207099\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Silence Unknown Callers<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> feature blocks callers from people outside your contacts, diverting them all to your voicemail.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some network providers, including T-Mobile, Sprint, AT&amp;T, and Verizon offer both free and paid services to block nuisance calls. These services are useful for identifying and blocking robocalls that do not come from real numbers.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are also third party apps available that you can download to block spam calls. Most good call-blocking apps such as Hiya and Robokiller require a monthly or annual subscription fee.These apps contain databases of scam caller numbers that they use to check unwanted incoming calls and block them if they correspond to an already-identified spam number.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Users can also add their personal numbers to the Federal Trade Commission\u2019s (FTC) <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ftc.gov\/faq\/consumer-protection\/list-number-national-do-not-call-registry\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do Not Call Registry<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in order to reduce the number of unwanted sales calls they receive, some of which could be fraudulent. The registry also allows victims to report unwanted calls. The FTC <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.consumer.ftc.gov\/articles\/national-do-not-call-registry-faqs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">reminds<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> individuals that it could take up to 31 days for sales calls to stop altogether.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Enhance-Your-Online-Privacy\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to Enhance Your Online Privacy&nbsp;<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By regaining control of your privacy online, you can limit social security scammers\u2019 and robocallers\u2019 ability to find your PII online in the first place and use it to contact you.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are some best practices you can take to keep your personal data as private as possible online:&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Make Social Media Accounts Private<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the easiest ways for data brokers to obtain PII is through public social media profiles that leave everything from emails and home addresses in plain sight. By simply adjusting your privacy settings you can automatically limit the amount of information that criminals can obtain from your profile.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another tip is to be wary of the information you share in posts on social media and limit the number of users who can see them. On Facebook, for example, the difference between the amount of people who can see your posts if they are limited to just friends as opposed to \u201cfriends of friends\u201d could be hundreds of thousands.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Keep Contact Info Private&nbsp;<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some websites will ask you to create an online account using personal information in order to use their services. However, if you don\u2019t trust a particular website, it\u2019s a good idea to give out fake information that scammers won\u2019t be able to use to take advantage of you.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This includes fake answers to security questions that will enable you to log into certain accounts. Some will ask questions such as your mother\u2019s maiden name, which could then become publicly available online.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sites like <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/dnt.abine.com\/#register\/?utm_campaign=abine.com&amp;utm_source=home&amp;utm_medium=splitfree\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Blur<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> can help you stay anonymous online by generating new email addresses and passwords each time you are asked to create a new online account. Blur then stores all this information safely and privately, all in one place.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Use Two-Factor Authentication<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whenever possible, it\u2019s wise to restrict your online accounts just to websites that require you to verify your login details through a two-factor authentication code. This extra level of security makes it more difficult for hackers and scammers to gain access to your personal information.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Use a VPN&nbsp;<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) prevent your internet service provider from monitoring your online activity and selling the information collected<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2014which could include PII\u2014<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to advertisers and data brokers. VPNs also prevent hackers and identity thieves from intercepting your browser activity.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A similar outcome can be achieved by using a private or incognito browser. These prevent websites from tracking your online activity and saving your cookies, temporary files, and browser history.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5. Use a Tracker Blocker&nbsp;<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The internet is teeming with hidden \u201ctracker\u201d companies including ad networks, social networks, and data collection agencies that make money by recording your activity and then targeting you with adverts or selling your data.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, there are blockers such as <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/dnt.abine.com\/#feature\/tracking\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Blur<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that exist to stop this tracker activity.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6. Use a Private Email Client and Encrypted Messaging Apps<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some messaging services and email providers, including Google and Yahoo, can read the personal emails you send and use any personal information they contain for ad purposes.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Using a private email service like ProtonMail or an encrypted messaging app such as Telegram can help you keep details of your personal correspondence strictly private between yourself and the recipient.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">7. Delete EVERYTHING<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The ultimate way of preventing fraudsters from obtaining your PII online is to remove data brokers\u2019 access to it. In other words, by deleting it.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can either do this manually with the help of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/help.joindeleteme.com\/hc\/en-us\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">our step-by-step guides<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> by requesting that individual data brokers delete your data, or you can sit back, relax, and let us do it for you.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Root-Cause-of-the-Problem\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tackling the Root Cause of the Problem<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instead of sticking a band-aid on the problem of scam calls from social security by taking myriad extra steps to protect yourself online, we believe in tackling this problem where it starts.
