Phishing Scams using Phone Calls and Text Messages
There have been several reports of Phishing Scams where fraudsters are making contact with individuals by Phone Calls and Text Messages. These messages inform recipients that their debit or credit cards have been blocked.
Many are receiving anonymous telephone calls with a "Blocked Card Notification" recording. The recording prompts the customer to enter card information over the phone such as card number and pin number. Others are receiving fraudulent text messages with a "Debit Card Locked" message. A phone number is provided for customers to unlock their card.
Please do not call these numbers or give out any personal and confidential information. Origin Bank would not ask you for account information in this manner. Anyone who has given any card information over the phone should contact our Customer Service Representatives at 888-292-4037.
