I sure wish the government (federal and states) would do more to warn people about these terrible scams. As it is, most folks have no idea about them.
Maybe run a quick public service ad on TV or radio. Put a flyer in with social security statements. That sort of thing.
If those idiot females on The View really wanted to do the public a good turn, they would report on this stuff, but instead they want to sit on their fat lazy asses and bash Trump for an hour................
