Phishing FAQs
Phishing, pronounced "fishing," is the creation of an e-mail message that appears to be sent from a reputable financial institution or company. The intent of phishing is to lure personal information from unsuspecting victims that can be used to commit fraud or identity theft.
What Does a Phishy e-Mail Look Like?
Don't be fooled by e-mails with messages similar to these:
- "We suspect an unauthorized transaction on your account. To ensure that your account is not compromised, please click the link below and confirm your identity."
- "During our regular verification of accounts, we couldn't verify your information. Please click here to update and verify your information."
- "You're credit card will be cancelled if we are unable to verify your personal information today."
Always remember that CSCU will NEVER ask you to click on an e-mail link to share sensitive financial information. Please notify us whenever you receive a suspicious e-mail or have any other form of unsolicited contact from individuals seeking personal information about your accounts.
What Are Some Ways I Can Protect Myself Against Phishing?
The FTC suggests these tips to help you avoid getting hooked by a phishing scam:
- If you get an e-mail or pop-up message that asks for personal or financial information, do not reply. And DON'T click on the link in the message, either. Legitimate companies don't ask for this information via e-mail. If you are concerned about your account, contact the organization mentioned in the e-mail using a telephone number you know to be genuine.
- Use anti-virus and anti-spyware software, as well as a firewall, and update them all regularly. Some phishing e-mails contain software that can harm your computer or track your activities on the Internet without your knowledge. Anti-virus software and a firewall can protect you from inadvertently accepting such unwanted files.
- Forward spam that is phishing for information to spam@uce.gov and to the company, bank or organization impersonated in the phishing e-mail.
