FRAUD ALERTS
Beware of fraudsters trying to mimic Security Federal Bank. We are currently receiving a high volume of customers reporting fraudulent text messages and Zelle transactions from malicious sources impersonating the Bank.
How to recognize an authentic Debit Card alert
When we alert customers about suspicious debit card transactions, our Fraud Center sends a transaction alert message that includes our fraud center phone number 800-237-8000. Authentic alerts ask you to verify if the transaction is valid or fraudulent by texting us a reply. Our alert messages do not ask you to click on a website link. Any message that does not have our fraud center phone number and requires you to click on a website link should be deleted and reported to the Bank as suspicious.
How to add a new Zelle payee
Due to the high volume of fraudulent Zelle activity, we are currently blocking all new payees that have not been verified by a customer. To add a new Zelle payee during business hours, please contact our Customer Support Center at 803-641-3000.
