Protecting Your Financial Accounts From Fraud

Security

Fraudsters use tricky methods like phishing to steal your information. Phishing means trying to get your personal info through emails, texts, or calls. Look out for signs like urgent messages, strange senders, or odd timing. If you suspect fraudulent activity, tell your financial institution right away and keep an eye on your credit report. Heartland's Credit Score Manager can help, and you can report fraud at identity theft websites. Stay safe! 

Nicki Swart, Information Security Analyst at Heartland Credit Union, delves into fraud prevention methods, particularly focusing on phishing scams.
