Social Security Administration warns about online look-alikes

Looking for information about Social Security? Make sure you’re going to the right place.

The Social Security Administration (SSA) is warning that it’s found Twitter handles, Facebook pages, websites and apps that look official but aren’t connected to the agency. Sometimes they’re outright scams to steal your personal information.

For official information from the Social Security Administration, go to SocialSecurity.gov or ssa.gov, or follow the Twitter handles @SocialSecurity and @TheSSAOIG. Read SSA’s Office of the Inspector General blog post for more.
