Credit Card Security Tip

Don’t buy anything from an unsolicited phone call: Criminals can obtain credit card information by posing as merchants, even if the product/service sounds legitimate. Ask if you can call back using the company’s published phone number.​

Make sure you have a secure connection: When making a payment online, always be sure the URL begins with https://. That “s” means it’s secure..​

Sign your card: Thieves can add their own version of your signature. Don’t make it easy.​

Review statement activity: Criminals can charge your card month after month for a small amount, hoping you won’t notice. Remember to review your credit card report each month for any purchases you don’t recognize.
