Description
Attempting to renew my passport, I googled "renew passport" and the scammer site was he first to come up in the results. It appeared legitimate, I entered personal information, paid the fee, which I thought was the renewal fee, and it generated a completed form DS-82 and instructions to mail it to the proper processing center. The site was intended to seem like the official State Dept site for passport renewal.
