Update from the Office of Congressman Andy Kim - 4/9/2020
Over the past month, our office has heard from countless small business owners looking for help to weather the economic crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

We’ve put together three ways you can get answers and help for your small business or for small businesses in your community.

Small Business Telephone Town Hall – Tomorrow at 11am, Congressman Kim will be holding a telephone town hall for aimed at answering questions from small business owners. He’ll be joined by Tim Sullivan of the NJ EDA and representatives from the Greater Burlington and Toms River Chambers of Commerce.

BE AWARE OF COVID-19 Stimulus Scams
Congress has recently passed a large COVID-19 relief and stimulus package. As with other aspects of the COVID-19 pandemic, fraudsters are exploiting the relief and stimulus to victimize the public. The U.S. Secret Service is observing a rise in stimulus relief fraud over the past several days and expect the fraud attempts to continue throughout the pandemic.

Criminal actors are using a variety of means to contact potential victims. In one instance, the criminal actors are using spoofed email addresses posing as U.S. Treasury officials requesting that the victim provide personal identifying information (PII), so that they can receive their share of the stimulus.

Other than via email, criminal actors are contacting potential victims via SMS/text, robocalls, and other messaging platforms. Through texts, criminal actors are sending links which directs individuals to a website, which then prompts the potential victim to enter PII and other sensitive information, such as bank account numbers, email addresses, and passwords.

Please click HERE for the US Secret Service INFO PDF Alert that provides threat information and recommended mitigation strategies to assist individuals and organizations in guarding against the persistent malicious actions of cyber criminals.

Stay vigilant, stay safe!!
