Top Elder Scams

KEEP YOUR ACCOUNTS SAFE WITH FMFCU
FMFCU strongly recommends making payments through our online Bill Pay service versus the mail for better security. Recently, there has been widespread mail fraud where scam artists are going into U.S. mailboxes, removing checks from envelopes and modifying them for personal use. With FMFCU’s Bill Pay, you can pay anyone, business or personal, and you can even add a trusted contact to your membership accounts to each receive alerts of any out of pattern activity.
TIPS TO PROTECT AGAINST THESE SCAMS
DON’T: Rely on contact information off of unsolicited emails or strangers online.
RATHER: Look up information on official website or hard-copy bill.

DON’T: Rely on just anyone to deliver or mail payments for you.
RATHER: Give to a postman or directly in the Post Office to be delivered securely. Alternatively, you can pay through FMFCU’s Digital Banking service.

DON’T: Keep personal information or documents laying around with visitors present.
RATHER: Put them away in a secure location.

DON’T: Act right away if an individual is pressuring you to take immediate action and provide personal information such as a Medicare number.
RATHER: Contact the Federal Trade Commission if you feel as though you are in danger of fraud.

DON’T: Click on any links or open attachments in emails.
RATHER: Use email spam filters to reduce phishing scam attempts. Some emails may look legitimate and are set up to get the person to click on a link as a way to hack information.
