Quorum Federal Credit Union is committed to
doing everything we can to help protect members from a variety
of fraudulent activities. However, members may be exposed
to acts of fraudulent activity that are beyond the Credit
Union's control and it is ultimately your responsibility
to prevent and protect yourself from becoming an unsuspecting
victim of identity theft or other fraud or scam.
Just a reminder, with the rise
in e-mail and internet scams, you should never disclose
personal information by phone or online, unless you have
verified the authenticity of the individual or website.
QFCU will never initiate calls or send e-mails asking for
personal information.
If you think you have
been a victim of identity theft:
Contact Quorum
by calling (800) 874-5544, Monday -Friday, 8:30 a.m.-7:00 p.m (ET).
Then, follow these steps from the Federal Trade Commission.
