Be Fraud aware

Ballyconnell Credit Union has become aware of a Phishing scam being circulated to our members via text. The text contains information stating that your Credit Union account has been placed on hold or Frozen and asks you to clink on the link to verify your account. Please DO NOT CLICK on the link and report this along with anything else suspicious to your local Credit Union.

• The Credit Union will never contact you and ask you for a code
• If anyone asks you to provide them with a code that has been sent to your phone, it is a scam
• Emails or SMS messages claiming that your account is locked or blocked are fake
• Messages that claim urgent action is required are generally fake
• Never click on links in messages. Always manually enter a web address into the address bar of your browser.
