Be Aware of Online Financial Fraud/E-mail Scams (Phishing)

Increasingly, Americans are receiving fraudulent emails that direct recipients to websites where they are asked to provide confidential, personal and financial information. These emails may vary significantly. Some claim that the individual’s personal information is necessary to assist in the fight against terrorism or for some other alleged legal purpose. Other emails purport to be from government agencies or legitimate financial institutions. The email may claim that there is a problem with an account and will provide a link to a site that may look authentic. You may be asked to input personal information such as bank account numbers, PINs or a Social Security Number. These fraudulent schemes are commonly known as “phishing”. DO NOT provide any personal information by clicking on the link. Fidelity Bank will never call you and ask for personal information over the telephone or request personal information via e-mail.

Additionally, we advise that you report any suspicious e-mail activity to the Federal Trade Commission. Submit information regarding the “phishing” file by entering a complaint with the FTC website. If you believe you have been defrauded, file your complaint at https://www.ftc.gov. You can also visit the FTC’s identity Theft website to learn how to minimize the financial damage from identity theft.

If you suspect Identity theft or fraud involving any of your Fidelity Bank accounts, contact us immediately at 1-800-388-4380.
