Learn the advice that the organization gave to guard against scams.
Given the recent growth of virtual scams, the National Social Security Administration (ANSES) published a statement addressed to all its benefits, including the Universal Child Allowance (AUH). In this he explained what the agency’s official means of communication are and what can be done in case of a scam.
Most virtual scams occur through phone calls or social networks. Scammers pose as agency workers with the aim of obtaining personal data of the owners and emptying their bank accounts. That is why ANSES decided to take action on the matter.
