美国阿拉巴马州敦促EBT用户锁定卡, Alabama urges EBT users to lock cards to prevent over $16 million in out-of-state fraud.

阿拉巴马人力资源部(DHR)正在敦促EBT卡用户在不用于防止欺诈时锁住其卡片。 The Alabama Department of Human Resources (DHR) is urging EBT card users to lock their cards when not in use to prevent fraud. 由于EBT欺诈行为,2023年5月至2024年12月更换了1 600万美元以上的SNAP福利,大多数欺诈交易发生在州外。 Over $16 million in SNAP benefits were replaced due to EBT fraud from May 2023 to December 2024, with most fraudulent transactions occurring out-of-state. DHR建议使用ConnectEBT应用程序上的“贴卡无处不在”功能,并签署账户活动警报。 DHR recommends using the "Lock Card Everywhere" feature on the ConnectEBT app and signing up for account activity alerts.
