Community: Phone Scam Reminders



If you receive a phone call from someone stating they are from your financial institution and your Debit Card has been deactivated this may be a SCAM. DO NOT give out your Debit Card Number or Personal Identification Number (PIN) to anyone.

If you receive a phone call from someone stating they are from Microsoft or another company asking for remote access to your computer, DO NOT allow them the access they are requesting as this may also be a SCAM.

If you have recently given someone remote access to your computer or your Debit Card Number & PIN to reactivate your card, please contact your financial institution.


Also, the IRS lawsuit/warrant scam is still fairly active in our communities. If you did have outstanding debts with the IRS you would receive certified mail, not a phone call, so just hang up on the calls threatening action by the IRS.
