According to the Orange County Sheriff’s Department (OCSD), Village residents have been targeted by fraudulent telephone calls from individuals impersonating bank representatives. It is essential to remember that legitimate banks will never request personal information such as your Social Security number, bank PIN or driver’s license number, nor will they ask you to withdraw funds from your account. Scammers may even use the name and telephone number of your actual bank branch to enhance their deception.
- Follow these tips to protect yourself:
- Hang up immediately.
- Call the customer service number on your ATM card to verify their call.
- If you can’t reach your bank, call the OCSD nonemergency number at 714-288-6742.
- If you’ve shared personal information, please call OCSD to report it.
