CUSTOMER E-MAIL ALERT:

Metuchen Savings Bank is concerned about the privacy and security of our customer information and would like you to be aware of fraudulent e-mails.

A fraudulent e-mail (also known as "phishing") is one that has been forged so that it appears to be a legitimate e-mail. This is because the graphics, design and e-mail address of the sender appear to be genuine. Often, it’s hard to detect a fraudulent e-mail. The e-mail will contain a link to a fake website that looks legitimate. The goal of these e-mails is to trick you into releasing sensitive personal information that can be used for identity theft (i.e. Credit Card and Social Security numbers, ATM/DebitCard numbers, PIN numbers, Sign-In Names, Passwords, Deposit Account numbers, etc.).

Take the following preventative measures to help mitigate the security risks:

  • Do not follow unsolicited web links and do not open unsolicited e-mail messages.
  • Maintain up-to-date antivirus software.
  • Use caution when visiting untrusted websites.
  • Do not trust unsolicited e-mail messages requesting clicking of a link or an attachment which is not legitimate.
  • Do not reveal personal or financial information over the internet, and do not respond to e-mail solicitations for this information. This includes following links sent in e-mail.

Metuchen Savings Bank has a policy of not contacting you via unsolicited e-mail or telephone to verify information that you have previously given to us. If you receive any suspicious e-mails or telephone calls claiming to be from us, do not respond and do not give any personal information. Please notify Customer Service at (732)549-2111 ext. 5050 during business hours.
