If it's not .gov, it's not Social Security (30 second audio script)

 

When you go on a road trip, you follow the signs to get to the right place. You need to read the signs when you’re online, too. For example, look for the "dot gov" at the end of the address--if it isn’t dot gov, it isn't Social Security. People may be tricked by misleading advertisers who use terms like "Social Security" or "Medicar"" to sell services for a fee, that are normally free. Go to www dot social security dot gov. Remember: if it isn't dot gov, it isn’t Social Security.
