Please
be aware: Unemployment
Insurance recipients are asked to be aware of alleged email messages
claiming to be from Chase Bank and requesting information pertinent to their
accounts. They are in no way associated with Connecticut Department of
Labor or Chase -- the vendor of Connecticut’s Direct Benefits UI
payment program.
“We have had several
reports of such alleged emails claiming to have originated from Chase, and
want to be perfectly clear about this,” explains Deputy State Labor
Commissioner Dennis Murphy. “These emails are not from Chase, and are not
associated with the Direct Benefits program. Neither Chase Bank nor
the Connecticut Department of Labor would ever communicate with customers
receiving UI benefits in this manner.
“Claimants who
suspect that their accounts have been compromised can telephone Chase at
1-800-432-3117,” Murphy adds. “”When they do, they should have their account
information available. They can email Chase at
accountatrisk@chase.com”.
For anyone who have
received a suspicious email, but not acted on it, Chase asks that they
forward it to
abuse@chase.com.
You will receive an automated email from Chase acknowledging receipt of your
original email, Murphy said. |
