America's Credit Union will NEVER ask you to provide access codes or personal and financial information via email, text, or unsolicited callers.  Awareness is your best defense against fraud.  Review our checklist.  

In today's digital age, where financial transactions happen at the click of a button, it's important to stay vigilant about the security of your bank account. Fraudsters are constantly devising new ways to access your money unlawfully, making it crucial for consumers to be aware of the warning signs indicating potentially fraudulent activity.

Utilizing payment platforms such as Zelle, Venmo, PayPal, and other Person-to-Person (P2P) payment apps is a convenient way to pay for goods and services, but also puts you at greater risk for transaction fraud.  

Suspicious phone calls and text message scams are on the rise.  

Please be aware that America's CU will never reach out to you and ask for sensitive information. If you happen to receive any form of communication from "America's Credit Union" either via phone or SMS text message, please do not hesitate to contact us at 1-888-742-6551. Your security and protection are our top priorities.

Internet "phishing" involves a bogus email message that uses legitimate-looking materials, like another company's logo, to entice you to provide personal financial details, such as account information, credit card, and Social Security numbers.
