Beware of Fake NYS Retirement Mobile App on Google Play

04/13/2023

A fraudulent mobile app claiming to be "NYS Retirement" is currently available on Google Play. Do not download or use this fraudulent app. It is not affiliated with NYSTRS and may be an attempt to steal your personal data.

If you think your personal identity has been compromised, contact us immediately at (800) 348-7298, Ext. 6190 to discuss options for adding a theft of ID flag to your System account. This will notify staff to take extra care in authenticating your identity before sharing specific information over the phone or processing any transactions. You can also choose a flag that limits access to your MyNYSTRS account.

Please note that NYSTRS does offer a valid, secure mobile app titled "NYSTRS Mobile," which is available on Google Play and the App Store.
