Scammers impersonating Kansas Secretary of State Office

27 July 2023

TOPEKA (KSNT) – The Kansas Secretary of State’s (SOS) Office took to Twitter Wednesday to warn of a phishing scam impersonating the SOS Office.

“We have been informed of phishing emails portraying to have come from our office,” the Twitter post said. “As a reminder, if the email did not come from .gov, then it was NOT from our office.”

Director of Communications and Policy Whitney Tempel said the scam email comes from a .org email address portraying to be the office. The email has a clickable link to “review documents” where scammers will try to steal your information.
