Suspicious Email From Your Bank?
If you receive an email
requesting account information from your bank, please
notify us at once. DO NOT respond to the email.
MC Bank & Trust DOES NOT contact customers via email
to verify or request confidential information. However,
some customers and non-customers have received
fraudulent or what is now called "phishing" emails that
have illegally used the MC Bank & Trust name, logo,
website design and/or graphics. Although the emails may
"look" official, they are not. They hope to trick you
into entering or sending them your login information.
Once a criminal has successfully "phished" information
from you and/or your account, he/she can use that
information to steal your money and your identity.
If you have replied to a suspicious email and provided
private information about your MC Bank & Trust account,
please contact us immediately at 985.384.2100.
