Security & Emergency Readiness
Protect Yourself from the Unexpected
Life can throw curveballs—but being prepared can make all the difference. Whether it's fraud, natural disasters, or financial emergencies, Signet is here to help you stay safe, informed, and ready for anything.
What To Do If You’ve Been Scammed
We’re here to help you bounce back.
If you think you’ve fallen for a scam, take a breath and follow these steps:
Immediately change your online banking username and password. Keep this info private—don’t share it with anyone.
If you downloaded a file or clicked a suspicious link, run a scan using a trusted antivirus program or have a professional check your device.
Keep an eye on your credit report and dispute fraudulent charges on your account with your financial institution right away.
Reach out to Signet. Our team is ready to walk you through the next steps and help secure your accounts.

How Will Signet Contact You?
We’re serious about protecting your account—and that includes how we communicate with you. Here’s how you’ll hear from us, and what to watch out for.
Phone Calls
Our team may call you if we suspect suspicious activity on your account. We’ll never ask for your full Social Security number, password, or Secure Access Code (SAC) over the phone.
Secure Access Codes (SAC)
You may receive a SAC via text or phone call when logging into Signet Online or Mobile Banking. Never share your SAC with anyone—not even someone claiming to be from Signet.
Debit Card Alerts
Our debit card fraud monitoring team keeps an eye on unusual spending. If they notice anything suspicious, they may reach out by text, email, or phone. These messages will never contain links or ask for sensitive information like your PIN or full card number.
Text & Email Alerts
If you’ve signed up for alerts through the Signet Mobile App, you may receive real-time updates about your transactions or account activity. We’ll never ask you to click suspicious links or provide login details. If you're ever unsure about a message, call us directly at 270-443-5261.
Loan Payment Reminders
If you have a loan with Signet and miss a payment, you might get a courtesy reminder via text or email. These may include a secure payment link—always double-check by visiting our website directly at www.signetfcu.com.
Credit Card Alerts
Our credit card partner may contact you directly if they detect potential fraud. They will never ask for your CVV (three-digit code), full card number, or expiration date.
When in Doubt, Reach Out
If something feels off, stop and call us at 270-443-5261. We’d rather you be safe than sorry.
