FeedU.S. Census Bureau – Public Service Announcement & Warning!
March 1, 2010 in VBS Miscellaneous Tags: cyber criminals, internet, online, U.S. Census Bureau
Security vendor Symantec is warning U.S. residents not to be duped by cyber criminals who may use the upcoming collection of information for the U.S. Census to steal personal information.
The security vendor advised people not to fill out anything online or click on any links in e-mails related to the census because those communications are likely to be fraudulent.
The U.S. government is expected to begin sending census forms via snail mail this month to every residence in the U.S. and Puerto Rico, according to the U.S. 2010 Web site. If forms are not returned in the time allotted, a census taker may pay a visit to a residence to collect information.
The U.S. Census Bureau does not plan to collect any resident information over the Internet, which is why Symantec is warning people not to respond immediately to anyone asking for it.

Census according to the Constitution is about representation. Since we are all Americans and slavery no longer exists we are all a whole person. Therefore the only boxes needed to be filled out is number of persons living at this residence, names of individuals living there, and gender. None of the other categories are necessary. Funding is not a part of the census. That’s left up to crooked politicians and back room deals.
