How can I avoid COVID-19 scams?
Scammers are taking advantage of the pandemic to target unsuspecting people:
- Scammers might ask you to pay out of pocket for the vaccine. The COVID-19 vaccine is free.
- Scammers might ask for your personal or bank information. You do not need to provide your Social Security number, credit card number, or bank account number to get the COVID-19 vaccine. Contact tracers will never ask for this information.
- You might see ads to buy your own vaccine through social media, email or even by phone. Vaccines are only available through authorized distributors, such as the Lake County Health Department, pharmacies, hospitals, and medical providers.
