ATM and Debit Card Safety

ATM & Debit Card Safety

Your ATM and Debit Card provide access to your Florence Savings Bank Accounts. Make sure YOU are the only one accessing them!

• Treat your card like cash. Always store it in a safe place.
• Never disclose your card information or any other non-public personal information in response to an email.
• Keep your PIN a secret. Memorize it and NEVER write it on your card or store it near your card.
• No company or individual needs to know your PIN…not even Florence Savings Bank.
• Only disclose your Debit Card information over the phone if you made the telephone call and you know the company.
• Make certain your Internet Shopping sites are secure. Look for secure transaction symbols. Always log off a site after your purchase or, if you cannot log off, shut down your browser.
• Keep your receipts to check against your monthly statements.
• Review your paper and online statements frequently for unauthorized transactions. Report any errors as soon as possible.
• Keep a record of your account numbers, expiration dates and phone numbers in a safe place separate from your cards.
• Use caution at retail stores, restaurants and gas stations. Handheld skimming devices (which are used to illegally obtain your debit card information) are sometimes used by dishonest employees.
• To report a lost or stolen card, call Florence Savings Bank during banking hours at 413-586-1300 or after hours at 800-264-5578
