Banks Never Ask That
Follow our advice and protect yourself from falling victim to identity theft or credit card fraud.
If you can answer this sentence, "My bank would never ask me..." accurately, you've already got a leg up on scammers. Unfortunately, many don't have the right information or tools to identify when they're being taken advantage of. Scammers often target the most vulnerable and trusting among us. Elder fraud alone steals billions from senior citizens every year.
The positive news is that elder fraud, identity theft, credit card fraud, fake check scams, and the list goes on, are avoidable when you are armed with the right information.
We've compiled a series of articles for National Cyber Security Awareness Month that outline how to identify scams, report criminal activity, and keep your personal information safe and secure.
