Identity Theft and Account Protection
Identity theft crimes are on the rise. Anyone can obtain and misuse your personal information to open up credit accounts, gain employment opportunities, and even steal money you have saved for retirement.
Credit Union members should never provide their personal information in response to an unsolicited email, fax, letter, call, or Internet advertisement.
In the event you have become a victim of identity theft or account fraud, call your financial institution and credit card company immediately and cancel all cards and active accounts.
