VA Warns Veterans of Growing Overpayment Scam Threat as National Honor Month Begins

The US Department of Veterans Affairs has issued an alert warning veterans about the rising threat of the 'VA overpayment scam', where scammers falsely claim that a veteran owes back pay or benefits, and demand payment to resolve the issue. This type of scam can result in financial loss for victims, and VA officials are urging those who receive such calls to report them immediately. The alert comes as the nation honors its veterans on Veterans Day.
