WARNING!!! Fraudulent SMS Campaign

Nationally, the Credit Union has received a number of reports recently of members receiving SMS messages purporting to come from the Credit Union which advise that their account requires an action to be carried out on it. It invites members to follow a link or contact a telephone number.

PLEASE BE AWARE THAT:

• The credit union will never contact you by text or email asking you to click a link to verify your account
• The Credit Union will never contact you and ask you for a code
• If anyone asks you to provide them with a code that has been sent to your phone, it is a scam
• Emails or SMS messages claiming that your account is locked or blocked are fake
• Messages that claim urgent action is required are generally fake
• Never click on links in messages. Always manually enter a web address into the address bar of your browser.
