Off topic I got a SSA scam? I am very confused.
I got an email from SSA and I don't know. I think this is a scam, looks like I had this email with ID.gov but it did not even pass the verification thing. The email is do-reply@gov.
Yeah, but I did not apply for benefits, and I called the idgov person; they are open 24/7 on the phone to help make a password change, and I got into that account. The account looks like it did not even pass the two-factor verification; it's linked to my phone, and no application benefits were done. So she told me the account was not hacked or fraudulent. It's asking you to have a passport or Driver's ID to complete the account and such, and it was linked to my phone being 2 step verification. I deleted the ID.gov account just now. I did not see any applications done, either. Maybe it was my old account from way back. I think someone spoofed the ID.gov email to send it to my other email address. But I will give SSA a call to make sure everything is gone, and tell them I have been spoofed and I did not apply for any benefits. I wish I could post a screenshot of my other email on what it looks like. I have my main email to ID.me and I don't see any benefits applied. Thank you for the help.
