Mobile Deposit Fraud is on the rise!
How the Scam works:
The scam works by fraudsters contacting their victims through email or social media posing as a potential employer, lender or even through a job advertisement on an online site such as Craigslist. The fraudster will often times provide the victim with an opportunity to earn quick money by depositing a check to your account or by asking for help in moving money from overseas. The fraudster will further request your bank account information and may even ask for your online or mobile banking login and password. Do not give it out!
The fraudster uses the information to deposit a fake check. Once the deposit has been made, the scammer will request funds to be immediately transferred back to them via money order, person to person transfer, wire transfer, gift cards or even cash. After the funds have been sent to the scammer, the check or checks that were deposited will be returned and the funds will be removed from the victim’s account, causing loss to the victim.
Protect Yourself:
- Never give out personal information to strangers
- If you are offered money in exchange for money or personal information, it’s likely a scam
- Check your bank statements regularly
