Census Bureau Scams

Most likely, you will get a visit from a Census worker.

Watch out for people posing as Census workers trying to steal your identity.

Ask to see ID and their badge before answering their questions and don’t be letting strange people into your home regardless…

DO NOT give your:
Social Security number
Credit card or banking information
Make any donations

Census workers DO NOT use email, so be on the look out for e-mail scams impersonating the Census. Never click on a link or open any attachments in an e-mail that are supposedly from the U.S. Census Bureau.
