The US Department of Justice issued a warning on Wednesday about fake COVID-19 vaccine scams promising fake prizes or cash payments to recipients. Consumers receive bogus emails and text messages urging them to provide sensitive information in return for a prize. Victims are charged for shipping or processing fees and provide their credit card and other personally identifiable information to the scammers. Some phishing emails may look like theyre sent from an actual government agency and use jargon and official logos. If you or a family member have received a similar phishing email or text, immediately report the incident.”]
