Internet and email based fraud continues to increase and is becoming very sophisticated.  Phishing (“fishing”) emails are fraudulent emails designed to look like they are valid communications from banks, regulatory agencies, or other companies in an attempt to deceive you in to providing your private information so that the scammers can access your finances.

Delta Bank, N.A., other banks, and regulatory agencies will NEVER send emails asking for your personal, account, or other financial access information for confirmation, security, verification, or any other purpose.  Never respond to any of these emails, do not click on any links provided in them, and do not open any attachments that they may contain.  If you receive an email that you are suspicious of, please feel free to contact your branch office to verify its authenticity.  You may also forward the email to spoof@deltabank.com.

You may also report any fraudulent web sites portraying themselves as being part of Delta Bank, N.A. to the email address spoof@deltabank.com.
