Beware of Internet Phishing Scams
Reports of "phishing" scams continue to rise on the Internet as a means to attempt to fraudulently obtain personal information used for identity theft.
Beware of any emails or telephone calls that claim to be your Credit Union, an online payment service, or even a government agency. The message may ask you to update, validate, or confirm your personal or account information on a website that looks just like the legitimate organization's site, but is not. Some phishing emails even threaten a dire consequence if you do not respond.
Please be aware that Westerra Credit Union would never contact you asking for your personal information. Never give out personal information to anyone who contacts you. You cannot be sure they are who they say they are, unless you are the one initiating the contact. Click here for more information.
