Recognizing fraud and scams

How Acme will and won't contact you, what Acme will never ask for, and common scams to watch for.

How to recognize a scam and keep your account safe.

How Acme will contact you

We may send account alerts by text or email. We will never ask you to move money to a "safe account", and we will never pressure you to act immediately.

Acme will never ask for

  • Your full password or PIN

  • A one-time passcode you received by text

  • Remote access to your phone or computer

  • A transfer to "protect" or "verify" your funds

Common scams to watch for

  • A text or email with an urgent link asking you to "verify" your account (phishing)

  • A caller claiming to be Acme asking you to move money or share a code

  • An offer that seems too good to be true and requires an upfront payment

If something feels off

Don't click links or share codes. Reach Acme directly using the number on the back of your card or in the app, and confirm before you act.
