In addition to the American Bankers Association #BanksNeverAskThat campaign, they've introduced a #PracticeSafeChecks initiative to help you avoid check fraud. Even though check usage has declined by 25%, reports of check fraud have nearly doubled since 2021. Scammers are finding new ways to exploit this traditional method of payment, but there are simple steps you can take to protect yourself. One key tip is to fill in every line on the check to prevent tampering. This ensures that fraudsters can’t alter the amount or the name of the recipient, keeping your hard-earned money safe. An unprotected check is a gold mine for criminals and blank spaces leave room for alterations. Remember to always fill in every line and prevent check fraud.

All throughout the month, we'll be joining the American Bankers Association in sharing essential cyber security tips in honor of #CybersecurityAwarenessMonth. Every day, countless people are targeted by scammers pretending to be their bank. If you receive a call asking for text codes or personal information, be alert because #BanksNeverAskThat. These codes are meant to protect your account by verifying your identity, and sharing them with anyone could give scammers access to your personal data or finances. Banks may need to verify your personal information if you call them, but never the other way around. If something feels off, it probably is. Stay vigilant, protect yourself from fraud, and always call your bank directly to verify.
