Be alert to unemployment scam
|
The Tarrant County Criminal District Attorney’s Office has published a short video detailing how cyber thieves are hacking personal information to steal unemployment benefits. This insidious crime is ripping off millions of dollars from unsuspecting people, many of whom are still employed and live in Tarrant County. The victims then get stuck with the consequences. Watch the video.
To help UTA employees avoid their name and Social Security number from being used to file for unemployment benefits in any state, the Office of Human Resources recommends watching out for a major warning sign and a subsequent course of action:
- Remain vigilant and open all mail from unemployment agencies regardless of the state. If you have not attempted to file for unemployment, do not disregard mail from an unemployment agency as unimportant or a mistake. This mail could be a sign that someone is attempting to use your identity.
- If you receive a notice regarding unemployment, contact Mary Schmenk in the Office of Human Resources at mary.schmenk@uta.edu or 817‑272‑9680.
