Why We Ask Questions
When our staff inquires about your banking transactions, we are taking proactive measures to ensure your financial security. Your safety is our priority.
What You Need to Know
Legitimate representatives of Tremont Credit Union will never:
- Threaten you or create a sense of urgency.
- Demand that you transfer your money to “protect it.”
- Instruct you to withdraw cash, buy gold, or purchase gift cards.
These are all tactics used by fraudsters to steal your money.
Common Scams to Watch For
Many scams involve fraudsters impersonating:
- Police Officers
- Detectives
- Financial Institution Examiners
- FBI Agents
These individuals may use direct or friendly approaches to gain your trust and exploit your vulnerabilities. Always verify their identity before taking any action.
