Important Debit Card information if you're traveling out of the United States

 

For your protection against debit card fraud, NorthSide Community Bank has restricted transactions originating in countries with a high level of fraudulent transaction.

 

NEW FRAUD UPDATE  The northwest suburbs are seeing a sharp increase in debit card fraud following the cardholder's return from Europe.  Indications are the mag stripe information from the back of the card is being skimmed at European places of business and ATMs.  Fraudulent cards are then created and shipped over the United States.  They have been used at several ATMs.

FRAUD COMES IN ALL SHAPES AND SIZES

Whether you are a consumer or business, make sure you know who you are doing business with.  If they are new to you, check 2 or 3 sources before sending any money or providing private account information.  These fraudulent transactions can be very costly.  Recently we have seen losses from $20,000 to $60,000.  The financial responsibility for these transactions rest with you, the account holder.  It is always best to err on the side of caution.
