Survey Scammers Targeting People Who Just Got COVID Shot, Offer Free Prizes
On 3/31/21 at 7:38 PM EDT
A new online scam targets people who have been vaccinated against COVID-19, offering prizes in exchange for filling out a post-vaccination survey online. However, the scammers don t want to reward people they want people s credit card numbers and personal information so they can steal their money and use their identities.
Victims of this scam often receive text messages or emails promising cash or prizes, like an iPad tablet device, in exchange for filling out a vaccine survey, the Department of Justice (DOJ) said in a Wednesday statement. The offers tell people that they just need to pay for shipping and handling or enter their bank account information to receive the prize. But when people provide this information, they get charged for the fees and they never receive the promised prizes.
