Protect Yourself From Phishing Attacks

We will NEVER contact you via e-mail to request or verify security information.

Phishing is a method where account numbers, personal identification numbers, usernames, and passwords are collected from users and then used to compromise their online accounts and commit identity fraud.

Phishing attacks typically move from location to location and are online for fewer than three days at a time. Recently, US credit unions, banks, and other financial institutions have had their identities hijacked by sophisticated phishers.

Phishing emails come in different forms, and all are sent in attempt to give scammers access to your confidential information. Some phishing emails request you to send personal information back to the sender in an email. Many even include a link requesting you to enter personal information on an authentic-looking website posing as a financial institution.

Phishing emails appear authentic. Attackers copy official logos, send emails with well-crafted subject lines such as "Urgent security notification", and can provide disguised links appearing identical to a legitimate website's address.

We will NEVER contact you via e-mail to request or verify security information. If you receive a phishing email that has illegally used our name, logo, or website, please forward it to us immediately.
