NEW MEDICARE CARDS ON THE WAY - AND SO ARE SCAMS

JUNE 1, 2018 -  The Social Security Administration says it is about to begin mailing the newly designed Medicare cards to Alabama residents soon.  The new cards do not contain Social Security numbers and hopefully will make it more difficult for your number to be stolen by identify thieves.

Social Security will NOT call you and ask for any personal information, such as your name, address, Social Security number, bank information, etc.   Anyone who does this is probably running a scam.


If Social Security has your current address, you don't need to do anything to get your new Medicare card.  If you have recently moved, call your local Social Security office and report your new address.  But remember, Social Security will NOT call you and ask for any information.  Beware of anyone calling and pretending to be from Social Security.
