Tips for Keeping Your Account Safe

While MSUFCU works to ensure your account is safe 24/7, there are also ways you can help make sure your financial information is protected.

• Verify where the email is coming from: Check the email address of any communication that appears to have come from anyone to make sure that it is the real email address. All Amazon emails end in @amazon.com

• Create a strong username and password: Make sure your account username and password are unique to you, difficult for someone else to guess, and not used for other accounts. Update your password regularly.

• Don't provide your information to others via phone: Unless you have initiated the connection, do not provide your financial information over the phone or online.

• Utilize safety features from MSUFCU: MSUFCU CVVKey™ sets up two-factor identification for all online purchases using your MSUFCU Visa Credit Card, helping keep you safe online. You can also setup verification codes to add an extra layer of protection when logging in to the MSUFCU Mobile App or ComputerLine.
