VDSS Warns Of EBT Scam

The Virginia Department of Social Services is issuing a scam warning for EBT or P-EBT recipients. Officials say they may get text messages telling them to call or text a number that begins with “866″ and ends with “0486.” You’re then asked for your card number and pin which the scammers use to steal all your benefits. If you get one of these texts do not call the number. If you may have been victimized contact the Virginia EBT Help Desk.
