US Citizens receiving emails telling them they will be deported?

I am seeing this all over social media right now.

Multiple people (U.S. citizens) have been receiving an email stating they are going to be deported.

They are assuming it was sent in error. Yet, with the Trump administration openly admitting they are deporting people accidentally, with no due process to prove they have a right to stay, yet the administration has "no ability" to get them back now, these emails are chilling.

No one can trust that a simple error this administration makes will be corrected. Especially one with such serious consequences.

You cannot blame the Trump administration for this Have you never received a call telling you that you need to pay IRS right away? Or an email with a similar message. Or, a message from your "grandson" telling you that he is in trouble and needs cash immediately? All scams.

Of course you can blame Trump. Before the current administration, no one would ever believe that a US citizen would be deported. NOW, during Trump, we don’t have the same level of certainty. It was so improbable that no one would even have tried to scam people that way because it wouldn’t have occurred to anyone to listen to it. NOW, during Trump, the scam could possibly work.

They would not send an email if they were going to do this. They would send a letter. Not all US citizens have an email address.

This appears to be real.

It is not a scam. You think it is a scam?

These emails were sent from a legitimate government website. They were not spoofed.

They were likely sent in error to the wrong email address. But given the current political situation, no citizen can rest lightly feeling, "It was just a mistake, I am sure it's fine."

Wait, what?

How do you know how the US government would tell US CITIZENS they were being deported?

And how are you so sure it would happen by letter?

The last time something like this happened to CITIZENS was... when they rounded up those of Japanese decent and sent them to internment camps in 1942. Even then they weren't sent out of the country, though.

She doesn't sound too bright for an immigration attorney.

Why is she hiding the sender address? Because it’s a scam email, just like the toll texts going around.
