What Members Can Do to Help
State College Federal Credit Union is committed to protecting the privacy of its members. Members can help by
following these simple guidelines
- Protect your account numbers, plastic card numbers, PINs (personal identification numbers) or
passwords. Never keep your PIN with your card, which can provide free access to your accounts if your card is
lost or stolen.
- Use caution when disclosing your account numbers, social security numbers, etc. to other persons.
If someone calls you explaining the call is on the behalf of the credit union and asks for your account numbers,
you should beware. Official credit union staff will have access to your information and will not ask for it.
- Keep you information with us current. If your address or phone number changes, please let us know
immediately. It is important that we have current information on how to reach you. If we detect potentially
fraudulent or unauthorized activity or use of an account, we will attempt to contact you immediately.
- Let us know if you have questions. Please do not hesitate to call us-we are here to serve you,
the member.
Disclosure of Information about Former Members
If you terminate you membership with the State College Federal Credit Union, we will not share information we have
