The Ohio Housing Finance Agency (OHFA) has issued a warning to residents about a housing voucher scam circulating on social media. According to OHFA, a fraudulent Facebook page named "Ohio Housing Development Authority" is falsely promoting a waiting list for Section 8/Housing Choice Voucher Programs.

The fake Facebook page reportedly uses the OHFA's logo and references its offices, directing individuals to a website to register for housing vouchers. However, OHFA clarified that it does not administer housing vouchers and advised Ohioans seeking such assistance to contact their local public housing authority.

For more information, please refer to the full press release.
