Recognize common scams

Scammers create urgency. Slow down and verify before you send money, especially to someone you have never met in person.

  • Impersonation of banks and government agencies
  • Romance and investment scams
  • Requests for gift cards or wire transfers
  • Fake invoices and overpayment schemes

Report and dispute

  • Track status online
  • Provisional credit while we investigate, where applicable

Scams to watch for

Scammers rely on urgency and trust. These are the patterns we see most often.

  • A message that claims to be from a bank or government agency and asks you to move money
  • A romance or investment opportunity from someone you have not met
  • A request to pay with gift cards or a wire transfer
  • An invoice that looks familiar but has new payment details

Slow down and verify

A few seconds of checking stops most scams.

  • Look up the phone number yourself instead of using the one in the message
  • Never share a code we email to you with anyone
  • Confirm new payment details by phone with a number you already trust
