Alert About Social Security Administration

First, You want to go to SSA.gov today. At SSA.gov, you want to make sure to download and print not only your Earnings Statement but also the Benefits Verification Letter. The verification letter has a barcode on the left vertical margin and a code of numbers on the right vertical margin. Print and keep this. This is not politically motivated advice, It’s just practical. If the SSA.gov database is shut down or opened up for investigation–to see if fraudsters are using dead people’s Social Security numbers to commit fraud and collect benefits—it could be glitchy going back up or other errors could occur. Errors happen, even when you buy a new IPhone and transfer data! Imagine a database like SSA.gov. Make sure to have these documents, which are the documents that will prove what your benefits are if there are errors related to changes to the SSA.gov database. With all personal cyber defense, it’s all about securing yourself. Email, call or text with questions.
