But this one could be deadly. Beware!
California now makes you fill out a drivers license renewal on line. My first attempt was last night. I think I hit DMV.CA.ORG instead of DMV.CA.GOV.
The site looked official. I dutifully filled out the form, including SSN and DOB. My first clue was when they tried to charge me for access to my completed form.
So now a scammer - PDF FOR - or something like that -has enough info to steal my identity easily. I am busy freezing all my credit - and feeling really stupid.
Watch for this! These guys are getting really good, and pop right at the top when you put DMV in the Google.
