FBI Warning on EPPICards

The Federal Bureau of Investigation is warning the users of EPPICards to watch out for a phishing attack. EPPICards are used to deliver child support payments to recipients in 15 participating states. These cards act like debit cards.

Phishers are sending text messages and emails asking users to logon to a linked web site and verify confidential data or complete a survey, which then asks for confidential data. The site and survey is a fake and the data will be used to steal from those entering the account numbers, PINs and other information.

Users should be aware that this is not a method used to verify your information.
