Caller ID Spoofing and Phone Call Scams: Caller ID Spoofing, sometimes called voice phishing or "vishing" is a phone scam type of phishing attack, where a criminal impersonates an actual personal or organization in order to get victims to reveal personal information. Fairfield County Bank will never ask for any Personally Identifiable Information, such as your Social Security number, bank account numbers, passwords, or debit card security codes over the phone, through email, or text message. Avoiding Phone Call Scams: Never give out your personal information via phone call, text, or email Emails and Phone Numbers can be spoofed or faked, so always make sure to check the sender or Caller ID carefully If you do not recognize the caller or the sender, do not respond or hang up immediately If you are ever suspicious of a phone call, text or email claiming to be from Fairfield County Bank, you can report the incident by calling 203.431.7431. For more information visit the Federal Communications Commission's page on Caller ID Spoofing here. Online and Mobile Banking Security Update: Starting in August, you may be presented with a One-Time Passcode when banking online or with your mobile device. A One-Time Passcode (OTP) is a heightened security feature that may be triggered when accessing your accounts. As an extra security measure, an OTP will be sent when using Zelle®. The OTP will be sent via SMS (text message) to the mobile number on file. After entering the passcode, you will be able to access your account. OTP security works best when a mobile number is on file with the Bank, which is why it is important to confirm that we have a valid mobile phone number associated with your account as the primary number. Verify that your mobile phone number is listed as the primary number through: Fairfield County Bank's online banking platform* Fairfield County Bank’s mobile banking app** By calling our Customer Care Center at 877.431.7431 or by visiting a Fairfield County Bank Branch Office. You can find all locations and hours here. * Once you've logged in to online banking, visit the "My Profile" section located in the Service Center*. Under the "My Profile" section, select "Change Phone Number" to review the phone numbers on file and update your primary number to your mobile phone number. **In your Fairfield County Bank mobile app, select "Banking Services" and then "My Profile" from the menu options.
