How to Protect Yourself
-
Treat the e-mail with suspicion. Never provide your personal information in response to an unsolicited request, whether it is over phone or over the Internet. E-mails and Internet pages created by phishers may look exactly like the real thing. They may even have a fake padlock icon that ordinarily is used to denote a secure site. If you did not initiate the communication, you should not provide any information.
-
Do not reply to the e-mail or respond by clicking on a link within the e-mail message. Richmond Community FCU will never ask you to provide any kind of confidential or financial details via an e-mail request.
-
Contact Richmond Community FCU as soon as possible to report the suspicious e-mail.
-
Never provide your password over the phone or in response to an unsolicited Internet request.
-
Review account statements to regularly ensure all charges are correct. If your account statement is late in arriving, contact your financial institution to find out why. If your financial institution offers electronic account access, periodically review activity online to catch suspicious activity.
