CDC vouchers

Free money from the CDC?

You might have seen ads or social media posts claiming that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is giving away free vouchers. These claims are false. There is no such program from the CDC.

The CDC is a federal agency that works to protect the health of Americans. It does not have a program to give away money to individuals.

If you see an ad or social media post claiming that the CDC is giving away free vouchers, be wary. It is likely a scam. Do not click on any links or provide any personal information.

How to protect yourself from scams

Here are some tips to protect yourself from scams:

• Be skeptical of any offer that seems too good to be true. If someone is offering you free money, it is likely a scam.
• Do not click on links in unsolicited emails or text messages. These links may lead to phishing websites that can steal your personal information.
• Do not provide personal information to anyone you do not know. Never share your Social Security number, bank account number, or credit card number with someone you do not trust.
• Report any suspicious activity to the FTC. You can report scams to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) at 1-877-382-4357 or online at
