Criminals are attempting to exploit the COVID-19 pandemic through various scams and fraud attempts. Please be on high alert to protect yourself and your family. Some of the scams reported include:
While they’re an easy way to send money to friends and family—unfortunately payment platforms like Cash App, PayPal, Venmo, Apple Pay and others are also vulnerable to scams that can result in losses to the user. Victims can be scammed out of hundreds, if not thousands of dollars because the apps are connected directly to debit card and/or bank accounts.
As we change our banking habits due to COVID-19, it’s more important than ever to be vigilant about potential scams. The FBI warns that hackers are using the upsurge in app-based banking as an opportunity to scam unsuspecting mobile banking users. To combat potential app-related threats, the FBI recommends only downloading banking apps from official app stores (like the Google Play Store for Android and the Apple App Store for iOS), or directly from the financial institution’s website, and to always use strong passwords. If you encounter something in your banking app that looks suspicious, contact Cal Coast or the financial institution for the app right away.
The California Attorney General issued a warning to be on the lookout for a new scam involving phony COVID-19 contact tracing. Contact tracing is an important tool that helps local public health departments identify and inform people who may have been in contact with a COVID-19 infected individual. In this new fraud scheme, scam artists pretend to be contact tracers in order to trick Californians into divulging their private personal information such as Social Security Numbers, financial information, or health insurance information. These scam artists are contacting Californians by phone, email, and/or text.
Legitimate contact tracers will never ask for personal or financial information—they will only ask about your medical symptoms and the people you have been in contact with. If a contact tracer asks you for personal or financial information, or tries to charge you money, it’s a scam. You can report contact tracing scams to the California Office of the Attorney General.
Scammers are taking advantage of those who are seeking income or new employment. Be cautious of companies requesting money, either up front or after accepting the offer. Sometimes they will say it’s for background checks, position guarantee, supplies, or even part of the job requirement. Do not send cash, checks or buy gift cards for potential employers. Do your research on the company, visit their website and contact them directly via phone to verify legitimacy.
Fraudsters often steal people’s personal information in order to make false unemployment claims in their names. The fraud is often discovered when the individual receives a notice from the Employment Security Department (ESD) about a claim they did not submit. If you believe you may have been the victim of this scam, here’s what to do next:
Scammers often use unsuspecting victims to receive and move stolen funds for them. If you help a scammer move fraudulent money, whether or not you know it’s a scam, you could be prosecuted for being what law enforcement calls a “money mule.” These scams are often perpetrated through online offers of employment, dating scams, or prizes. Scammers will send money to you, then ask you to send a portion of it to someone else. Learn more
According to the Better Business Bureau, government imposters are making fraudulent calls to people regarding the COVID-19 relief. These callers may suggest that you qualify for a special COVID-19 grant, but must first provide personal information or banking details. The scheme may come through text messages, social media posts/messages or phone calls. Be wary of unsolicited messages and remember that government agencies do not communicate via social media avenues. Stimulus checks are free money from the government. You don’t need to spend money to receive your check. Learn More
If you receive a text message offering freebies for Costco Wholesale members that’s part of a “COVID-19 stimulus package” be aware that this is a scam. Do not click on any links in the message as they may include malware or ransomware. Learn More

According to the California Department of Business Oversight, scammers are telling homeowners that by transferring the deed to their home to a third party, they will no longer be responsible for their mortgage payments. This is NOT true. Transferring a title will not relieve a borrower of their mortgage payments. For more information on this scam and the most recent consumer alerts, click here.
