Received 2019 Benefit Information For Hawaii Citizens Only. States may qualify for up to $35,000 tax-free payment for funeral costs. Also says it’s a state-regulated program which is deceiving as business in Hawaii is all state-regulated and payment is tax-free only because the “payment” is to the beneficiary of a life insurance policy-not to the addressee. It asks for personal information which they will probably sell to other companies. This is exactly like the August 24, 2016 ScamPulse.com alert St Louis MO mailings from Marietta GA company. There is no company name anywhere in the mailing.
