This is to prevent E-mail and Internet-related fraud schemes have become increasingly prevalent and more sophisticated in recent years, affecting customers of financial institutions across the United States. These scams are often perpetrated by criminals who compromise the e-mail accounts of unsuspecting individuals and businesses, and then use those e-mail accounts to initiate unauthorized funds transfer requests.

Paper Checks:

Paper checks can be mailed or dropped off in person at our office at 104 W Exchange St, Owosso, MI 48867. Please allow for delivery time.

How to Protect Yourself:

  • Be careful with what information you share online or on social media. By openly sharing things like pet names, schools you attended, links to family members, and your birthday, you can give a scammer all the information they need to guess your password or answer your security questions.
  • Don’t click on anything in an unsolicited email or text message asking you to update or verify account information. Look up the company’s phone number on your own (don’t use the one a potential scammer is providing), and call the company to ask if the request is legitimate.
  • Carefully examine the email address, URL, and spelling used in any correspondence. Scammers use slight differences to trick your eye and gain your trust.
  • Be careful what you download. Never open an email attachment from someone you don’t know, and be wary of email attachments forwarded to you.
  • Set up two-factor (or multi-factor) authentication on any account that allows it, and never disable it.
  • Verify payment and purchase requests in person if possible or by calling the person to make sure it is legitimate. You should verify any change in account number or payment procedures with the person making the request.
  • Be especially wary if the requestor is pressing you to act quickly.
