🚨 HEADS UP: Don't Fall for the "Spoof"! 🚨

Highly motivated scammers are currently manipulating caller IDs to make it look like they are calling from our phone number. Their goal? To direct you to a convincing clone of our online banking page and steal your login details.

Your Fraud-Fighting Playbook:

🛑 Do NOT click links. Whether a link is texted to you during a call or emailed out of the blue, ignore it completely.

🔒 Keep your info locked down. Never hand over your bank details, passwords, PINs, or one-time passcodes (MFA). We will never contact you to ask for these.

📞 Hang up the phone. If a caller is rushing you, threatening to freeze your account, or asking for sensitive info, just drop the call. You will never hurt our feelings by hanging up.

✅ Go straight to the source. Always access your online banking by manually typing our official website address into your browser or opening our secure mobile app.

If you think you might have accidentally clicked a bad link or shared your info, don't panic! Just call us immediately at (888) 231-3165 or use the number printed on the back of your card so we can secure your account.

We were thrilled to host the Monroe County StartUP students! We wish them a great year!

A big THANK YOU to First National Bank of Waterloo for welcoming our Monroe County StartUP students for a tour!

We appreciated the opportunity to learn more about the banking industry, and especially the conversation about trust… how it’s built, why it matters, and the important role it plays in both business and relationships.

Thank you for investing your time in the students and helping them learn from real world business experiences.
