2010 Census.......Caution

2010 Census to Begin
WARNING: 2010 Census - Cautions from the Better Business Bureau
Be Cautious About Giving Info to Census Workers by Susan Johnson
With the U.S. Census process beginning, the Better Business Bureau (BBB) advises
people to be cooperative, but cautious, so as not to become a victim of fraud or
identity theft.
The first phase of the 2010 U.S. Census is under way as workers have begun verifying
the addresses of households across the country. Eventually, more than 140,000 U.S.
Census workers will count every person in the United States and will gather information
about every person living at each address including name, age, gender, race, and
other relevant data. The big question is - how do you tell the difference between
a U.S. Census worker and a con artist?
BBB offers the following advice:
** If a U.S. Census worker knocks on your door, they will have a badge, a
hand held device, a Census Bureau canvas bag, and a confidentiality notice.
Ask to see their identification and their badge before answering any questions.
However, you should never invite anyone you don't know into your home.
** Census workers are currently only knocking on doors to verify address information.
Do not give your Social Security number, credit card or banking information
to anyone, even if they claim they need it for the U.S. Census. REMEMBER, NO
MATTER WHAT THEY ASK, YOU REALLY ONLY NEED TO TELL THEM HOW
MANY PEOPLE LIVE AT YOUR ADDRESS.
While the Census Bureau might ask for basic financial information, such as a
salary range, YOU DON'T HAVE TO ANSWER ANYTHING AT ALL ABOUT
YOUR FINANCIAL SITUATION. The Census Bureau will not ask for Social
Security, bank account, or credit card numbers, nor will employees solicit donations..
Any one asking for that information is NOT with the Census Bureau.
AND REMEMBER, THE CENSUS BUREAU HAS DECIDED NOT TO WORK
WITH ACORN ON GATHERING THIS INFORMATION.. No Acorn worker should
approach you saying he/she is with the Census Bureau. Eventually, Census
workers may contact you by telephone, mail, or in person at home. However,
the Census Bureau will not contact you by Email, so be on the lookout for
Email scams impersonating the Census.
Never click on a link or open any attachments in an Email that are
supposedly from the U.S. Census Bureau.
PLEASE SHARE THIS INFO WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS.
