What are phishing scams?

Phishing scams are becoming increasingly sophisticated in stealing your personal and financial information through emails, texts or phone calls that appear to be from your financial institution.

You can protect yourself by:

  • Verifying the sender of an email – look closely for spelling errors or unusual domain names
  • Enable two-factor authentication – Consider enabling two-factor authentication on your account
  • Update your software – Check for updates regularly for your security software, operating system and browsers
  • Use caution on social media – Be mindful when sharing personal information as scammers can grab this data for a targeted attack

When in doubt, call Navigator.

Remember, we will never ask you to provide sensitive information through text messages or email.
