🚨 Beware of scam calls claiming to be from the Social Security Administration! 📞 Criminals are using deceptive tactics to target older individuals, posing as SSA representatives to steal personal information. Remember: SSA will never call you unexpectedly. Stay vigilant, don't engage with suspicious calls or texts, and never provide personal information over the phone. Take proactive steps by setting up your SSA account and report any fraudulent activity to idtheft.gov immediately. Protect yourself and your loved ones from scams! #FirstWestern #FraudPrevention #AARP
