"Don't click on links within e-mails that ask for your personal information.
Fraudsters use these links to lure people to phony websites that looks just like
the real sites of the company, organization, or agency they're impersonating.
If you follow the instructions and enter your personal information on the
websites, you'll deliver it directly into the hands of identity thieves.
To check whether the message is really from the company or agency, call it
directly or go to its websites (use a search engine to find it)."
