Description
I clicked the top website in my Google search for to get a new passport. It asked me to put in all of my personal information, soc #, numbers from my passport and passport card, and asked for my parents birthdays and names. When I got to the pay screen, I put in my credit card info and the payment unfortunately went through. I thought it was a US government website. I asked for a refund and was denied. They charged me for something that is FREE at travel.state.gov. What will they do with my private info??
