Dear Member,

At Mazuma Credit Union, we are committed to protecting your financial interests with secure technology and educate you with “best practices” for staying secure on the Internet. As a Mazuma Credit Union Online Teller member, we want to make you aware of the increasing use of "phishing" and "spoofing" to obtain sensitive personal information.

"Phishing" is a type of fraud where an e-mail asks you, often with a sense of urgency, to click a link to update or confirm your sensitive personal information, such as your account numbers, card numbers, social security/tax identification numbers, passwords, or PINs.

To enhance the security when accessing your on-line accounts, Mazuma Credit Union has implemented an additional layer to our on-line security system. You may be requested to answer security questions in order to complete your log in to the Online Teller system.

Click here to log in to the Online Teller system.

Please do not reply to this message.

Warmly,
Mazuma Credit Union.
