Disclosures & Disclaimers
Protecting Your Identity
Herget Bank values the safety and security of our customers, their accounts and personal information. One way we help to maintain your security is to inform you about email scams and phishing attacks, which can result in your account being compromised.
Phishing is a type of email scam that hackers use to get customers to divulge their account numbers, login IDs, passwords, and other confidential information. They send emails to people hoping to lure those who are actual customers of that bank to click a link to a fraudulent website that looks like Herget Bank’s and enter their account and/or personal information.
Herget Bank Will Never Solicit Via Email
The best way that you can protect yourself against this type of scam is never to provide information via an unsolicited email, a link in an email or a website that you have not intentionally accessed: This includes user IDs, passwords, social security number, or account numbers.
