I felt that this is critical enough information that  the entire SPSPS list 
should have a copy.

Good  info...the Census people said we should receive  a questionnaire in 
the mail in March  2010.

WARNING: 2010  Census Cautions from  the Better  Business Bureau
2010  Census Cautions, by Susan Johnson - August 3,  2009 12:07  pm

0A

Be  Cautious About Giving Info to Census  Workers

With  the  U.S. Census  process beginning, the Better Business Bureau  
(BBB) advises people to be cooperative, but  cautious, so as not to become a 
victim of fraud  or identity  theft. The  first phase of the  2010  U.S. Census 
 is under way as workers have begun verifying the  addresses of households 
across the country.  Eventually, more than  140,000  U.S. Census  workers 
will count every person in the United  States and  will gather information 
about every person  living at each address including name, age,  gender, race, 
and other relevant  data.

The  big question is - how do you tell the difference  between a  U.S. Cens
us  worker and a con artist? BBB offers the  following  advice:

**  If a  U.S. Census  worker knocks on your door, they will have a  badge, 
a handheld device,  a Census  Bureau canvas  bag, and a confidentiality  
notice. Ask to see  their identification and their badge before  answering 
their  questions. However,  you should never invite anyone you donï¿½t know  
into your home. 
**  Census workers are currently only knocking on  doors to verify address  
information. Do  not give your Social Security number, credit  card or 
banking information to anyone, even if  they claim they need it for the U.S.  
Census. While  the Census Bureau might ask for basic financial  information, 
such as a salary  range, the  Census Bureau will not ask for Social Security, 
 bank account, or credit card  numbers nor  will employees solicit  
donations.

Eventually,  Census workers may contact you by telephone,  mail, or in 
person at=2 0home.  However, the  Census Bureau will not contact you by Email, 
so  be on the lookout for Email scams impersonating  the  Census.

Never  click on a link or open any attachments in an  Email that are 
supposedly from  the  U.S. Census  Bureau.
