We have been alerted to scam text messages and phone calls posing as MVSB and other local banks. The message/caller may state that an account transfer has been scheduled for a large dollar amount and ask you to click on a link or provide confidential information, such as your account or card number or online banking credentials, to verify.
Remember: Never click on a suspicious link you receive by text and do not provide with sensitive information in response to an unsolicited text or call. Doing so will put your phone, your accounts and your identity at risk.
It’s easy for scammers to pose as legitimate businesses by “spoofing” (or imitating) the contact names and caller ID. While MVSB does send alert customers to suspicious activity by text and phone, we will not ask you to click on a suspicious link or respond with personal information.
If you are ever concerned a communication you received was not from us and/or if you have clicked on a suspicious link, please contact us right away at 800.922.6872 so that we can assist you with protecting your accounts and identity.
