If You Receive This Kind of Message, Disregard: It Is Not from GEEP, Beware of Scammers

Have you recently received a message from someone claiming to be from GEEP? If so, be careful! It is likely that this message is from a scammer.

GEEP is a legitimate government agency that provides financial assistance to low-income families. However, scammers often impersonate GEEP in order to steal personal information or money.

If you receive a message from someone claiming to be from GEEP, there are a few things you can do to protect yourself:

• Do not reply to the message. Scammers often use automated systems to send out mass messages. By replying, you could be confirming that your email address is active, which could make you a target for more scams.
• Do not click on any links in the message. Scammers often include links in their messages that lead to malicious websites. If you click on one of these links, you could download malware or be taken to a website that steals your personal information.
• Do not provide any personal information. Scammers will often ask for personal information such as your Social Security number, bank account number, or credit card number. Do not provide any of this information to someone you do not know and trust.

If you are unsure whether a message is from GEEP, you can contact GEEP directly to verify. You can find contact information for GEEP on their website.

Here are some tips for avoiding scams:

• Be suspicious of any unsolicited messages. If you receive a message from someone you do not know, be suspicious. Scammers often send out mass messages in the hopes of finding someone who is gullible enough to fall for their scam.
• Do not click on any links in messages from people you do not know. Links in messages from people you do not know could lead to malicious websites.
• Be careful about what information you share online. Scammers can use information you share online to target you with scams.
• Use strong passwords and two-factor authentication. Strong passwords and two-factor authentication can help protect your accounts from being hacked.

By following these tips, you can help protect yourself from scammers.
