Be alert for online scams falsely claiming to represent AHFC and offering disaster “grant money,” “special payouts,” or “housing funds.”
Individuals posing as AHFC may be creating look-alike but fake assistance pages online, and/or contacting survivors directly and requesting personal information, fees, or bank details in exchange for monetary assistance.
AHFC does not use private messages on social media or third-party individuals to offer disaster relief or other emergency funds. Learn how to spot and report scams.
