Got unwanted call from 800-244-5631?
I believe this is a true phone number from Illinois Unemployment. I got letters from them about possible fraudulent claims filed under my name. The caller didn't ask for personal information and told me to destroy any EBT card I might receive. This type of fraud is rampant.
Received 2 letters one was integrity unit and the other called interstate processing center. I don't live in that state and never applied for benefits. They used my employer's name which is not located in that state either. Trying to trick you into giving out your personal information. Letters seemed suspicious and a scam. reported them to unemployment agency state of illinois.
I got two letters from these same people claiming to be Illinois dept of employment, did not respond.
Received a letter supposedly from Illinois Department of Employment Security, the name was incorrect and the address was wrong. Also I am retired and didn't not apply for benefits.
Also received this letter from "Integrity Unit". Address shows a different zip code from actual physical location of IL Dept of Employment Security. Also, phone number is not the same. I have never lived or worked in IL. Seems to be a scam - throwing letter away, not contacting.
Received letter supposedly from Illinois Department of Employment Security. Integrity Unit, from Quincy Ill, Phone number not right area code. Totally a scam. These people need to be thrown in prison, and forgotten about. No punishment is enough.
call with follow up letter claiming to be Illinois dept of employment security with unknown employer and denial of employment benefits which I have never applied for and a credit card that had to be activated..
