What is 'spam'?
The term 'spam' refers to all the email that you receive from sources that you did not authorize to send you communication or phone calls and text messages aimed at selling things or spying on data. The greatest portion of email sent throughout the internet today is unsolicited messages, otherwise known as spam. These include advertising messages, offers to get rich, adult dating, online pharmaceutical drugs and gambling promotions from sources you aren't familiar with.
You can tell that emails are spam when you don't recognize the sender and the offer seems too good to be true. Some other warning signs are if there is an attached file, the content of the email doesn't match the subject, the content is written in poor English with misspellings, there is a claim that the message is urgent or there is a "limited time" to reply. What helps you to recognize spam? Use the Anti-Spam Guide or our reverse search tools: Reverse Phone Lookup, Reverse Email Lookup or IP Checker.

This numbers impersonate the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. It sends text messages telling recipients they must take a "mandatory online COVID-19 test" using the provided link. This number also has been related to another scam where scammers claim to be from the FCC Financial Care Center. They are offering $30,000 in COVID-19 relief. It asks recipients to click on the link to register for this government program. Obviously, this programs does not exist.. it’s just another scam!

This phone number sends a message with the heading "IRS COVID-19 News" and includes a link and instructions for recipients to register/update your information in order to receive the economic impact payment. The link points to a website designed to look like the IRS's and requests identifying information, including date of birth, social security number and filing status. Ultimately, it requests a debit or credit card number to "verify your identity.” People might think they are contacting the IRS, but they are providing all their information to scammers.

People are getting calls or text messages from someone identifying themselves as a priest, minister, or deacon. The scammer asks for money to help someone who is sick or hospitalized due to Covid-19. To donate, the suspect directs the individual to purchase cards such as a Green Dot, Visa, or other financial card. The victims are then directed to call a certain number and provide the card information. Scammers take advantage of religion and kindness of people in this difficult times. It’s very shameful!!

This phone number leaves the following message: “You’re qualified for free multivitamins, probiotic, and also for the cough medication. For you to take advantage of this offer, press 1. This has been fully paid for, fully covered by… (your health insurance provider). Since people think it’s actually their insurance company offering free medications, they are more willing to give their medical information. However, it not your insurance company calling, it’s a scammers. So, hang up right away and don’t press 1.

Scammers claiming to be with Reader’s Digest calls people to inform them that they had won a prize of several hundred thousand dollars and a brand new vehicle. Then the caller, who has your address as well, says that they would drop off the prize at your house, and asked for your drivers license number. They also add, there would be a delivery fee of $500 in cash payable now. This is a big red flag… this is a scam! Hang up immediately!
