Know how to stay safe when you are ordering COVID-19 tests: no one will call, text, or email you from the federal government to ask for your information to "help" you order free kits. Don't give out your credit card, bank account, or Social Security number!

You only need to give a name and shipping address. You can also sign up for email updates. Anyone who asks for more information than that is a scammer.
