Featured Scam: Protect Yourself During a Merger

Wings recently announced our intent to merge with Ent Credit Union. During this time, it's important to stay alert to potential fraud. Fraudsters may try to take advantage of the situation. Here are some friendly reminders to keep your information safe:

  1. Keep Your Digital Banking Information Private: Never share your digital banking logins, one-time pins or passwords with anyone. Remember, Wings will never ask for these details via email, phone or text.
  2. Verify Communications: Be cautious of unexpected messages claiming to be from Wings or Ent Credit Union. Always check the authenticity of such communications by contacting Wings directly using official contact information.
  3. Stay Informed: Keep yourself updated on the merger process through official channels. This will help you distinguish between genuine updates and fraudulent attempts.

By following these simple practices, you can protect your financial information and stay safe during the merger transition.
