SCAM ALERT: This is a scam call DSS clients have been receiving. The latest came from 877-603-5515. The numbers change but the scam is the same. How can I tell it's a scam? We aren’t DHS. That's not a DSS CT phone number. Trying to create a sense of urgency, do it immediately!

DSS is working with CAAs to distribute the one-time $300 grocery card to those who have lost their SNAP benefits due to recent changes in the rules of eligibility. Details of what you will need to do to access this benefit are being determined.
