phishing scams Question And Answer
What email do I send phishing scam letters to?
Answers
Act immediately if you’ve been hooked by a phisher. If you provided account numbers, PINs, or passwords to a phisher, notify the companies with whom you have the accounts right away. For information about how to put a “fraud alert” on your files at the credit reporting bureaus and other advice for ID theft victims, contact the Federal Trade Commission’s ID Theft Clearinghouse, www.consumer.gov/idtheft or toll-free, 877-438-4338. The TDD number is 202-326-2502.
Even if you didn’t get hooked, report phishing. Tell the company or agency that the phisher was impersonating. Send the actual spam to CFR2007@ConsumerFraudReporting. org (without the space before .org. I had to do it this way in order for the complete address to post on here.You can only post 30 continueous characters on here.) and uce@ftc.gov. You can also report the problem to law enforcement agencies through the National Fraud Information Center/Internet Fraud Watch, www.fraud.org or 800-876-7060, TDD 202-835-0778. The information you provide helps to stop identity theft.
