Maryland officials are warning EBT recipients about a new robocall scam designed to steal personal information and potentially gain access to their benefits. The Maryland Department of Human Services confirmed scammers are spoofing the state’s legitimate EBT customer service number, meaning the real number can appear on a recipient’s caller ID. From there, victims may be prompted to provide EBT card information or their PIN. The scams come as Maryland replaces its older magnetic-stripe EBT cards with new chip-and-tap cards designed to combat fraud. Anyone who believes they gave information to a scammer should immediately change their PIN and contact Maryland EBT to secure or replace the card.
