US Secret Service: “Massive Fraud” Against State Unemployment Insurance Programs

Me too, I just got one (although it wasn't saying I applied, it was just referring to my "claim #" and telling me about a retraining opportunity). Where did you file your fraud report? I've been meaning to but haven't figured out where to call yet.

I had the same opportunity letter, something about entrepreneurship but also referenced a claim number.

(thanks - once I typed my comment I thought "hmm I bet I can just _find_ that form" and lo! it was findable).

Considering whether to also send a paper letter, as those still seem to be "more official" and the state ESD IT systems are clearly a bag of frowns.

It's good luck that the entrepeneurship letter-sending program actually works off my real home address, not whatever the scammers may have input. I certainly didn't receive any other letters from the state regarding my "claim".
