We have been notified of a scam text using our CU name

We have been notified of a text message scam stating, "Your loan at Simplot Employees Credit Union is past due".

Please be advised that:

1. We do not send texts to collect a loan.

2. The number used was not our credit union number. (Also be aware that phone numbers and caller ID's can be spoofed by scammers so don't ever assume the caller ID you see is accurate on any call from anyone).

3. Scammers can obtain your personal information on your social media accounts so avoid posting where you work, live, or with whom you do business.

4. You can view your information on our secure online banking site or contact the credit union to inquire about your account in person, via our direct line or by email.
