CAUTION TO ALL FOUNDERS COMMUNITY BANK CUSTOMERS

We continue to receive reports of a telephone scam involving fraudsters attempting to obtain personal information from other bank's customers.

Event Characteristics

Cardholders have received computer-generated calls claiming to be from their financial institution. The calls claim their accounts have been frozen and then direct the cardholder to call a toll-free number to leave their debit card information in order to reactivate any cards. The toll-free number includes a recorded message that asks the customer to key their account number, card expiration date, and PIN.

Recommendations

Should you receive any questionable calls, please make sure you do not provide your personal information.
Founders Community Bank has never and will never use any form of recorded message to verify any information about your account.

Should you ever question the validity of any call from us, please call us directly at (805) 543-6500 to verify the call.
