Important
Notice: Please be aware that in one state there have been
reports of phishing emails which may affect Electronic Payment
Cards (EPC). This has not occurred in Rhode Island and not
with our Vendor JPMorgan Chase. Phishing is a type of scam
designed to steal your personal information. The Department of
Unemployment Insurance (UI) will never request information such
as a social security number, card (EPC) number or Personal Identification
Number (PIN) through the email system. If you receive an email
requesting this information please do not respond. For security
reasons, you should not share your PIN or allow anyone else to
use your card (EPC). If you believe your card account has been
compromised, please call the number on the back of your card to
report your concerns.
The RI Department of Labor and Training is pleased to provide
this Electronic Payment Card to you so that you can obtain your
Unemployment Insurance benefit payments. The card is a fast, easy
and safe way to access your money. YOU MUST KEEP THIS CARD FOR
YOUR CURRENT CLAIM AND ANY POSSIBLE FUTURE CLAIMS up to 5 years. PLEASE REFER
TO THE EXPIRATION DATE ON THE CARD.
