đ¨ CONSUMER ALERT: Your bankâs name on Caller ID doesnât mean itâs your bank calling.
Scammers are becoming increasingly sophisticated, spoofing phone numbers, sending convincing fraud-alert texts, and impersonating financial institutions to create a sense of urgency.
A common scenario starts with a call or text claiming thereâs suspicious activity on your account. The scammer may then pressure you to provide personal information, share a security code, click a link, or even move money to âprotectâ it.
Remember:
⢠Never share your password, PIN or one-time security code with an unexpected caller.
⢠Donât click links in suspicious banking texts or emails.
⢠Never move money because someone claiming to be your bank tells you itâs necessary to âkeep it safe.â
⢠Donât trust Caller ID alone - phone numbers can be spoofed.
⢠When in doubt, STOP. Hang up and contact your bank directly using a trusted number.
At Millennium Bank, we believe an informed customer is one of the strongest defenses against fraud. Stay alert, trust your instincts, and when something doesnât feel right, talk to a real banker.
