Minnesotans, be on alert! Scammers have been impersonating Minnesota Housing on Facebook, leading people to apply for fake housing and vouchers. These fraudulent pages used names like “Minnesota Housing Authority” and “Minnesota Housing Development Authority.” They directed individuals to links that requested personal information, posing a risk for identity theft.
Minnesota Housing clarified that they do not manage housing waitlists or issue housing vouchers. Always verify sources before providing any personal information online to protect yourself from scams.
