Expert Opinion

If you see a call from 1‑888‑741‑1115 flashing Direct Express on your screen, treat it with suspicion. The Treasury’s Direct Express program never initiates unsolicited phone calls asking for personal data. Scammers often use a fake deposit notification to pressure you into giving your SSN or card number. Hang up immediately, block the number, and never share sensitive info over the phone. Report the call to the FTC or your carrier’s fraud department, and consider placing a Do Not Call request. Legitimate Direct Express communications will come by mail or through the secure online portal, not via a cold call.
