As the number of EBT fraud victims continue to climb, authorities are realizing the issue is much broader than originally thought, and it appears now to be a nationwide issue.
According to Lakewood Police, other authorities are now involved in trying to determine the source of the fraud.
Allegations that local cashiers may have used skimmers or other ways to commit the fraud, appear unfounded at this time.
This morning, Rabbi Boruch Mordechai Spiegel released the following statement.
I do NOT shop at Foodex and I was scammed.
Whatโs there to do if I was scammed?
Call your local police department
I think DOGE is cutting out all the giveaways.
Whats a EBT Card? Is it a Lakewood thing?
LOL
Let’s all shop at Foodex to show our support. This is not their fault!
Absolutely ๐ฏ! ืืื ืืืื ืขืื
Good idea
Thank you Rabbi Spiegel for clarifying.
I suggest spending your money on shelf stable items or crediting it to your account as soon as the money comes in so that you can avoid having it stolen from your account.
It is illegal to credit food stamps to you account.
Foodex is a great store!!! I will ืืื ื ืืจ going tomorrow to the store to buy something for Shabbos, even though I don’t need anything, just to show support!!!
Foodex is a great store! Used to live in the neighborhood. Everyone should go show support.
