Fraud prevention tip #10: Be aware of phishing scams. When checking your email or doing business online, make sure you know the source is legitimate. An identity thief may set up a "phishing" website that looks identical to your or other business where you have an account. These phishing scams are created to access your personal information and attempt accessing your bank account or other accounts. Do not give your debit card or account number to someone who calls asking for the information. This includes clicking on a link that has been sent to you via text message, through email, or social media messaging platforms. These are all examples of phishing scams to avoid.
