[Krebs on Security] Crooks Hijack Retirement Funds Via SSA Portal

Krebs on Security has posted a new item.

If you receive direct deposits from the Social Security Administration but
haven't yet registered at the agency's new online account management portal, now
would be a good time take care of that: The SSA and financial institutions say
they are tracking a rise in cases wherein identity thieves register an account
at the SSA's portal using a retiree's personal information and have that
retiree's benefits diverted to prepaid debit cards that the crooks control.
