Protect Yourself from Bank Wire Fraud
Watch this video from the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to learn about three common wire scams.
Contact us with questions or concerns about fraud — we are here to help you!
Remember — when you wire money to a person or business, it’s final and cannot be reversed. That is why it’s important to never:
- Wire money to a person or business you do not know.
- Share your account information.
- Respond to unsolicited emails, phone calls, text or direct messages that offer “too good to be true” opportunities (job offers, free vacations, or lottery winnings to name a few).
- Deposit a check that is written over the agreed amount and then wire the extra money back to the sender.
- Wire money to:
- Online sellers
- An online love interest
- Rental representatives
- A new employer
- A relative or friend who claims to be stranded out of town (and you cannot back up the claims).
