Before you send money, know for certain, there's not a bad guy behind the curtain.

Peer-to-Peer payment apps such as Zelle®, Venmo, PayPal & Cash App are more popular than ever. Protecting yourself is more important than ever!

Protect Yourself with these tips:

  • Never send money to someone you don’t know
  • Verify people you think you know
  • Beware of bank and company impersonators
  • Don’t give out personal information
  • Stay up to date on all the latest scams
  • Double check for typos in amount & recipient

Remember, once it's sent, it's spent.
