Important Reminders:

• NEVER respond to unsolicited calls or emails requesting your confidential banking information.
• CalPrivate Bank will NEVER call you asking for your passwords, verification codes, or any other confidential information.
• When in doubt, contact your Banker!

Cyber hackers are sneaky and will use tactics that make you want to act fast and give up confidential information.

Tactics include:

• Making you believe that your account has been hacked and you need to give up your login credentials to secure it.
• Sending urgent emails or messages claiming there’s a problem with your account that requires immediate action.
• Creating fake websites that look like legitimate ones to trick you into entering your personal information.
• Using scare tactics, such as threats of legal action or account suspension, to pressure you into providing sensitive data.

Always be cautious and verify the authenticity of any communication before responding. If in doubt, contact your Banker or branch directly using a known, trusted method.
