People are asking me if the email from Social Security yesterday was a scam
I'm getting many people asking me to "investigate" if the email they
received yesterday touting the fascist GOP budget bill, that will enrich
billionaires and throw over 10 million people off healthcare, and makes
misleading claims about seniors not paying taxes on Social Security
benefits, was some sort of phishing attack or other scam, the kind that
Social Security is always warning about (and in fact, is a topic they
send emails about occasionally, warning you about such scam emails).
Apparently all Social Security beneficiaries for whom Social Security
has email addresses and has been sending emails in the past, received
this propaganda email, which it noted in fine print at the bottom was
"produced and disseminated at taxpayer expense".
And yes, it definitely IS a scam. It's Social Security Administration
propaganda from Trump. It's not trying to get you to send money, it's
trying to sell you fascist lies.
Which is even worse.
