Rally Credit Union has received reports of residents affected by an “Imposter Scam” circulating throughout South Texas. Members report being contacted via text, email, or phone call by “imposters” (persons identified as law enforcement agents from the FBI, Federal Trade Commission, Microsoft, and other agencies). Victims are then instructed to withdraw cash funds from their financial institution and deposit into a BitCoin ATM with a QR code.
Rally encourages members to be diligent in protecting their personal information by monitoring accounts via online banking and/or app. More importantly, if you do not recognize the phone number and/or email address, DO NOT ENGAGE. Contact the entity directly that the imposter claims he/she is representing for verification.
