Stop it.March was fraud awareness month — but DPCU cautionsmembers to be aware, and protect themselves all year round.One of the more popular schemes with fraudsters is “Phishing.” They’llsend you emails pretending to be a reputable financial institution or creditcard company.

If you receive this type of email, delete it immediately.To report suspicious email or any other type of fraud or attempted fraud — whether online, by telephone ormail — contact The Canadian Anti-fraud Call Centre at 1-888-495-8501 or visit www.phonebusters.comiPad winnerCongratulations to Pamela Nault, who signed up for DPCUMobile Web banking, and won a new iPad for her trouble!
