Authorites Warn of Social Security Scam

Authorities are warning Utah residents about a social security scam that's hitting the state.

Scammers are calling people to tell them their social security numbers have been stolen.

Then they ask their targets to confirm their social security and bank information to prevent suspension of their accounts.

Francine A. Giani with the Utah Department of Commerce urges anyone who gets a call like this to just hang up.
