GSA Alerts Public to Recent E-mail Scheme
The U.S. General Services Administration is warning the public to
avoid falling victim to a recent e-mail scheme that targets users by sending unsolicited e-mails
allegedly from FirstGov, the citizen portal operated by GSA. These scam e-mails tell recipients that
because of recent fraudulent activities on Money Access Online they need to confirm their account
has not been stolen or hacked. The e-mails then direct recipients to click on a link and enter
information related to personal credit card accounts. The e-mail appears to be sent from this following
fraudulent e-mail address: MONEY ACCESS SERVICE (fraud@firstgov.gov). There may be other
similarly styled addresses. The text of the e-mail includes 'Dear Money Access Customer' and asks for
certain private personal and private financial data, but recipients shouldn’t provide this information.
