Be a Pro at Spotting a Phishing Scam
Security Financial Bank (SFB) joined the American Bankers Association and banks across the nation to promote an industry-wide campaign educating consumers about the persistent threat of phishing scams. The Federal Trade Commission estimates that consumers lost $10 billion to phishing and other fraud in 2023, an increase of 13.6% compared to 2022. To combat phishing, the award winning #BanksNeverAskThat campaign uses attention-grabbing humor and other engaging content to empower consumers to identify bogus bank communications asking for sensitive information like their passwords and social security numbers.
Scams aren't so scary when you know what to look for. And at SFB, we're committed to helping you spot them as an extra layer of protection for your account.
We want every bank customer to become a pro at spotting a phishing scam-and stop bank impostors in their tracks. It starts with these four words: Banks Never Ask That. Because when you know what sounds suspicious, you'll be less likely to be fooled.
