We value your privacy. That is why we do not request personal information via e-mail. If you receive an e-mail that appears to be from College Savings Bank, a Division of NexBank, and the message asks you for personal information such as your social security number, account number, or other sensitive information, DO NOT RESPOND to the e-mail. It is not from College Savings Bank, a Division of NexBank. It is a hoax designed to deceive you into sharing personal information with identity thieves.

This type of e-mail fraud targets customers of reputable companies and is being used with great frequency by scam artists. Typically, the e-mail warns you of some problem with an account or promotes a special offer and directs you to a web site that appears to belong to a legitimate company. In fact, the web site is fake and any information you provide may be used fraudulently.

Privacy Safety Tips:

• Be suspicious of any e-mail that asks for personal information, requests your authentication, or indicates a problem with your college savings account.
• Be aware that legitimate companies do not ask customers to verify personal information by sending e-mail or pop-up ads.
• Never respond to an e-mail asking for your credit card information.
• Avoid sending personal and financial information by e-mail.
• Never click on a link in an e-mail if you are unsure of its origins, especially if the e-mail asks for personal financial information.
