URGENT
Michigan Attorney General's Message to Consumers:
- Scammers are using the news that the federal government will send one-time payments to millions of people across the country as part of the federal economic relief response to COVID-19 to steal personal information.
- The Michigan Department of Attorney General has already received reports that residents are getting emails from websites appearing to be official demanding that they provide PayPal, bank account or other financial information to receive the $1200 federal stimulus payment immediately.
- If you receive a text, email or phone call from someone claiming to be from the government with a check for you—DO NOT FALL FOR IT.
- These fake phishing scams will likely ask you for your bank account information and insist $1,000 or more will be deposited directly into your bank account.
