Got a 'Veterans Savings Program' postcard? VA says it is a scam
VA warns about fake postcards saying you or your spouse are owed 'extra VA benefits' or additional payments, whatever your VA disability rating. Do not call the number on the postcard. Never give your Social Security number, bank account details or other personal information over the phone or on the internet. When in doubt, call VA directly at 1-800-827-1000.
