Gulf War Veteran VA Disability Update.

A Gulf War disability presumption expires Dec. 31, but it's not necessarily a claim-filing deadline. Here's what veterans need to know.

Another scam to be aware of!

Another scam to be aware of!

Attorney General Jeff Jackson is warning veterans about a scam offering monthly payments and free dental coverage through a “Veteran Savings Program.”

Be careful. If something looks odd, it probably is a scam.

Be careful. If something looks odd, it probably is a scam.

Veterans: Be on the lookout for a scam targeting your mailbox.

The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs is warning Veterans about a postcard claiming you or your spouse may qualify for an extra $185 per month through a so-called “Veteran Savings Program.” While the postcard mentions legitimate programs like CHAMPVA and TRICARE For Life, it is not from VA.

If you call the number listed, scammers may pretend to be VA employees, thank you for your service, and then ask for personal information such as your Social Security number or bank account details.

Remember:
• Never share personal or financial information with unsolicited callers.
• Be cautious of anyone pressuring you to act quickly to avoid losing benefits.
• Always verify benefit information through VA’s official channels.

If you have questions about your VA benefits, contact VA using the phone numbers listed on the official VA website—not the number on the postcard.

Help protect yourself and your fellow Veterans by sharing this important reminder.
