Ways to Protect Your Credit and Identity

Fraud Alert: August 7, 2008

CUNA is aware of new phishing e-mails that are circulating. These e-mails reference a new service, "Your Credit Union Rewards You." with a link to collect the reward.

Neither CUNA nor CUNA Strategic Services offers such a program. Do not provide any information to these sites.

The Credit Union National Association is the trade association for credit unions in the US. CUNA does not maintain any type of customer/member financial information. Additionally, your financial institution would never request personal identification information over the phone via an e-mail solicitation. If you did respond to this e-mail, you should contact your financial institution directly using the local phone number provided by your financial institution.
