Scammers claiming to be from the PA Treasury have been calling participants in the Property Tax/Rent Rebate Program and asking for bank account information in an effort to steal valuable personal data.
You should know that no one from the state will ever call and ask for bank information for this program. In this scam, the caller claims the information is needed so a rebate payment can be made by direct deposit.
Remember, you should never give out your bank account information or other personal financial information simply because someone calls and asks for it.
The best way to contact the PA Treasury with questions about a rebate is with the form available at www.patreasury.gov/contact.
