Scam Alert! The FMCSA WILL NOT contact you requesting you complete a form and send information through email. Be careful with your info and stay on guard.
SCAM ALERT: FMCSA is aware of a fake email being sent to carriers. This email, pretending to come from FMCSA, asks carriers to complete an attached registration form. In some cases, the email asks carriers to upload a copy of a certificate of insurance and Driver’s License to protect against fraud. The altered form requires a customer to provide their Social Security Number, USDOT Personal Identification Number, and RMIS ID (Registry Monitoring Insurance Services/FMCSA Integration).
Remember!
✅ FMCSA would not request this information on a form.
✅ Communications from FMCSA relating to information requests of this type would either request you to log in to your portal account or come directly from an FMCSA dedicated mailbox.
✅ Communications from FMCSA would come from an official FMCSA email address, NOT [email protected] or [email protected].
✅ Verify any email or communication you feel to be suspicious with FMCSA or the appropriate agency.
