You can be assured that we maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect your personal and financial information. Remember, St. George Beehive Credit Union will never ask for your account or personal information when the call is initiated by us and we will never e-mail you to request your account information. Beehive Credit Union’s eStatements are a secure and convenient way to monitor your account activity. We have all been hearing tragic identity theft stories for a number of years, but, unfortunately criminals continue to devise new ways of stealing identity. One of the latest Washington identity theft scams involves call forwarding. Scammers make and receive phone calls using the victims’ actual home telephone numbers. You can find out how to safeguard yourself and protect identity by reading the article Telephone Identity Theft Scam Consumer Alert. (You can find the link on the St. George Beehive Credit Union website Fraud Alert page.) ‘Phishing’ continues to claim victims. According to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the nation’s consumer protection agency, phishers send an email or pop-up message that claims to be from a business or organization that you may deal with — for example, an Internet service provider (ISP), bank, online payment service, or even a government agency. The message may ask you to ‘update’, ‘validate’, or ‘confirm’ your account information. Don’t ever fall for it, no matter how legitimate the site appears! St. George Beehive Credit Union’s website contains more information about fraud alerts to help you Bee Safe.
