Emerging story

In the last week, a winter storm has ravaged the state of Texas, causing widespread power outages and leaving many people without indoor heating and working water. On Facebook and Twitter, a claim has been circulating that FEMA is paying for hotel rooms in Texas. The claim says to call 1-800-745-0243.

The post has adapted different looks and versions, but each version lists 1-800-745-0243 as the phone number to call if you are in need of assistance.
