Officials from the Social Security office in Sonora say there is a scam going around involving Social Security
numbers. Manager Pat Fisher says an elderly woman was visted by an older man claiming to work for the Social Security office. He told her if he could get her
Social Security number, she´d get her payments. She gave him her number.

Fisher says never give out your Social Security number to anyone. Social
Security officials usually have your number on file without asking. If someone has your number, they can essentially steal your identity and finances.
