Even with these best practices in place, there have been instances when 7 17 members have fallen victim to scams because they have shared their online banking credentials. Here are a few quick tips to keep your information safe:

• If you did not request to be contacted, do not give your account information or online banking login credentials to anyone who is contacting you by phone or online.
• If you receive a phone call, email, text or other electronic communication that is suspicious, do not give out any personal or confidential information.
• If you feel that your account information may have been compromised, please contact 7 17 immediately.
   

It’s important to note that 7 17 will never call or text you requesting your NetWorth24 Online Banking username or password, your account numbers, your Social Security number, or other private and identifying information.
