Be cautious of scams related to the 2020 Census. The most anticipated scam involves a fraudster posing as a census taker in order to obtain sensitive personal information. Remember, a census taker will NEVER ask you:
- If you are a U.S. citizen
- For your full Social Security number
- For credit card numbers or checking account information
- For a donation
- To pledge your support for a political party
- For personal information, such as your mother's maiden name, or the name of the elementary school you attended.
