Phishing Alert
NORTHSIDE COMMUNITY BANK
WEB SITE PHISHING ALERT
There are internet criminals who perpetrate
identity fraud. We know that they accomplish this by sending out
emails that attempt to trick victims into visiting fraudulent
banking websites where login, account, or otherwise private
information is requested.
Financial institutions NEVER send emails to customers
requesting sensitive information.
Should you receive an email that you suspect might be from a
phisher follow these common sense identifiers:
-
The email contains no personally
identifiable information except for your email address
-
The email may contain misspellings
-
The email contains a hyperlink that they
are requesting you to click on
-
There is a sense of urgency communicated
-
They may indicate this is a phishing
email alert
If there is any question about the emails
integrity contact the bank.
