Identity Theft & Fraud Resources

Prevent Fraud From Happening to You! 

This is a reminder to please be cautious about about the information you share. There are simple, preventative actions we advise you to take in order to better protect your information.

We may text, call or email you if we have a question about a recent purchase. We will only ever ask you to verify the purchase. We will NEVER ask you for your visa card number, online banking credentials, social security number, or account number. Do not give this information to someone that you think is us, not even the last 8 digits of the credit card.
