Caution: Banking Scams on the Rise First Keystone National Bank is warning customers about a recent series of fraudulent automated phone calls, phone messages, cell phone text messages and e-mails. These have been sent to customers as well as non customers by phishing scammers. These scammers send out mass messages to as many people as possible, attempting to trick them into giving out their personal and confidential account information. Fraudulent e-mails, text messages, etc. have been designed to look as if they came from First Keystone National Bank and often contain the bank’s logo. These messages are not legitimate and recipients should click on any links in e-mails, call any toll free phone numbers provided or respond with any confidential financial or personal information. Anyone who has questions about a suspicious message they have received can call First Keystone National Bank at 1-888-759-2266 or send an e-mail to info@fknbank.com . Anyone who did respond to the fraudulent e-mails, text messages or phone calls and/or disclosed personal information should contact their financial institution as soon as possible. There are a number of fraudulent messages going around, such as: -A text message saying that the customer’s debit card has been deactivated and giving a phone number to call to have it restored. -A warning that fraudulent e-mails are being sent out and the recipient’s debit card has been temporarily blocked as a security precaution. To re-activate the card, recipients are asked to call a toll free number where they’ll be asked to input their card information. -An e-mail where you’re told that you need to log-in to your online banking under the premise that the bank has sent you an “alert” message. Once you click on the link it asks you to enter your personal debit card/credit card information, including PIN. Often times, the “fake” online banking screen looks very similar to the bank’s legitimate online banking screen. -Phone call/message telling you that your debit/credit card has been deactivated. To re-activate call a given toll free number where you’re asked to give out your confidential banking information.
