Protect Yourself From Fraud

Here are some additional tips on protecting yourself from debit card fraud.

1. Unless absolutely required for a legitimate business purpose, avoid giving out your:

Address and ZIP code
Phone number
Date of birth
Social Security number
Card or account number
Card expiration date
Your PIN is private; never give it out.

2. In stores and at ATMs, always cover your card and PIN, and watch for:

Cell phone cameras, mirrors, or other tools used to view cards and PINs
People watching your transactions
Cashiers taking your card out of sight; take it to the register yourself
Any unusual activity at ATMs; if you feel uncomfortable, go to another ATM

3. Online, you should never respond to unsolicited emails that:

Ask you to verify your card or account number; such emails are not sent by legitimate businesses
Link to websites; such sites can look legitimate but may collect data or put spyware on your computer
As always, please feel free to call us at your local branch location if you have any questions.
